Description
Bike Radar's 2023 Performance Bike Of The Year
The ENVE MELEE Force AXS E1 is a road bike built to match confidence in your ability with confidence in your equipment. It performs in all the areas that count: efficient power transmission, weight, aerodynamics, and versatility.
With geometry optimized around 27 to 32 mm tires, the Melee dials up the versatility with the ability to fit up to 35 mm tires, allowing you to tune your Melee to meet the needs of the day.
Real World Fast
Developed in CFD and the wind tunnel, the Melee features refined tube shapes that have been tuned to complement their SES™ rim shapes and deliver aerodynamic performance. Additional features such as the Integrated Front-End add to the Melee's slippery design.
The Integrated Front-End routes wires and hoses through the bar, stem, and headset, where they're secured using ENVE's anti-rattle finishing kit, allowing them to remain silent, out of sight, and out of the wind.
Features:
- Integrated for Speed: IN-Route system routes wires and hoses through the bar, stem, and headset using ENVE's anti-rattle finishing kit, keeping everything silent, hidden, and aerodynamic.
- Aero Seatpost: The Melee's new aero seatpost uses a Kamm-tail design and ENVE's twin-bolt saddle rail clamp.
- Material Optimized Design (M.O.D.): Carbon layups are tuned for zone-specific performance including impact toughness, stiffness, and compliance, providing everything needed for top performance without excess.
- 35mm of Freedom: Designed around race-focused geometry and handling optimized for 27–32 mm tires, with clearance up to 35 mm for added speed or versatility when conditions call for more volume.
- Threaded T47 Inboard-Bearing Bottom Bracket: Features a T47 threaded inboard-bearing bottom bracket for smooth, silent, creak-free operation—designed to be worry-free and maintenance-friendly.
