PERFORMANCE
Road & TT Performance
This chart shows how many seconds the wheelset saves across 1 hour of riding compared to our baseline Zwift’s 32mm Carbon wheelset on stage 0 Zwift Carbon and TT frames. This is based on a 75kg rider, 183cm tall, at 300 watts, riding on tarmac.
The Smart ENVE System (SES) 8.9 wheels launched in 2013, and now superseded by the SES 7.8, were the disc-defying aerodynamic leader at the time. Designed for real world aerodynamics with a different front to rear wheel depth and width, the 8.9 could be ridden confidently in the toughest conditions. Strong, stiff, and light, the 8.9 was designed for riders taking every advantage they could against the clock.
