G23 DB

ENVE G23 DB carbon gravel wheels are built for riders who prioritize low weight, precise handling and durability when paved roads give way to gravel, rough tracks and technical sections. With ENVE INNERDRIVE Premium hubs, this wheelset combines rims designed for fast off-road riding with a build suited to long days and challenging elevation changes.

Both front and rear rims have a shallow 25 mm depth, chosen for responsiveness and predictable handling over uneven ground. The internal rim width is 23 mm, while the external width is 31.5 mm. Each rim has a claimed weight of 330 g, helping keep the wheelset light for acceleration and climbing without overlooking the strength needed for gravel use. The wheels are 700c, and ENVE lists an optimized tire range of 33c to 45c.

ENVE Wide Hookless Bead technology uses a broader rim edge to spread impact loads when a tire contacts rocks or trail obstacles, helping reduce the risk of pinch flats. A molded bead-lock supports tire seating and retention. The G23 is optimized for tubeless setups, while ENVE also states compatibility with inner tubes when installation guidance and approved tire requirements are followed.

ENVE INNERDRIVE Premium hubs feature straight-pull spokes and an interchangeable ratchet system with 40-, 60-, 80- and 100-tooth options. Their anti-twist spoke interface and spoke arrangement are intended to simplify servicing and promote consistent spoke tension. ENVE lists the front wheel at 570 g and the rear at 692 g, giving a claimed wheelset weight of 1262 g.

Each wheel features 24 spoke holes, a Centerlock disc interface and thru-axle spacing of 12x100 mm at the front and 12x142 mm at the rear. Designed for gravel racing, training and long-distance mixed-surface rides, the ENVE G23 DB offers a lightweight platform with an emphasis on traction, ride comfort and confident control, even over irregular surfaces and long climbs.
