So finally managed to get ride my Enve…..and it is hard to fully evaluate the bike. This is simply because my fitness currently is truly appalling.

It feels like an between of the SL6 and SL7. It is more of an Allrounder……climbs good, but not amazing, but I feel that is partly due to the wheel choice. But descending wise it is solid as a Rock. Keeps the line fantastically well.

Stable as anything, no frame flex at all. So all power gets transferred without loss…..

And I m very impressed of the custom geometry. The sizing was based upon my Speedvagen and my soon to arrive Bastion. And the fit was perfekt from the get go.

Love the one piece handlebar, truly a wonderful piece of art….and contact points just work for me.

That's a nice looking ride! I'm sure better in the flesh.The one-piece bar/stem does look nice!

Ordered it end of May, and it was delivered to my LBS the last week in August. But due to Pandemic Travel Rules only got to ride it for the first time last week.
