It actually isn’t.... Ceramic bearings don’t really have any performance benefits and on top of that although Chris King is thought to be one of the best manufactures of hubs, they’re actually not all that great. Lots of proprietary parts and super heavy for the price you’re paying. Enve makes nice products, but their aero claims on their aero wheels are just marketing bs.
@@astrayagrarian Chris King hubs are high quality, their only issue is that they’re overengineered and heavy. Proprietary parts on their own are not a bad thing, especially since every single major manufacturer has their own proprietary parts in some form. It’s when manufacturers use proprietary products to cut costs that things go downhill. And yes, this is very common, but it’s not always the case - Cannondale SISL2 crankset for example. With the big focus on aero nowadays weight doesn’t matter anymore. I don’t know anything about Enve’s testing methods but I trust that they are one of the few wheel manufacturers that actually gather wind tunnel data instead of just using CAD software to simulate wind and making a rim based on that.
very similar just now these wheels come with ceramic bearings and the rovals do not and the rovals are not tubeless ready and the enves are.... but in terms of performance and aerodynamics almost similar
I got a question on my r45D，when the wheels is on a high speed, my cassette body will keep going forward,but I saw your video your cassette body move , any suggestions for me?
enve hubs are amazing they are really nice, dont sound exactly like ck but they are some nice sounding hubs and def hold there own in the high end wheel department
in all honesty I have not seen a pair of hunt wheels ocme into the store yet, I always hear people commenting about them but I havnt seem them in person so I cant speak on them that much because I havnt seen them in perosn but from what I have seen online they look like quality wheels
so I dont no...... but also my stand is uneven, that thing wasnt that unbalanced compared to some others I have done, I did it earlier in the day and it did way better inthe other stand I just think that stand touching the floor was uneven
@@GCPerformance18 true. The worm-gear to enable a stronger connection is a-mazing. I don’t make enough power to really stress it, but it’s nice to know it’s there!
Owww plsss 😩 Chris king hub... So beautiful hub I'll ever seem.. i like to buy..but I don't have money... Still watching from the Philippines and I wish someone give a gift a hub like that.. 😩 or give away...I'll support until I'll die
The dt Swiss 240 with 54tsounds much better and does not have such an oscillating sound as the CK . I have 240 DY with 54t on my 6.7 and r45 on some enve 4.5 and the Chris King is so so in comparison in my opinion. And the dt rolls longer . Chris King is overrated as to the hubs in a few ways , one the sound two the roll duration is not very impressive and especially working on them is a hassle vs the dt Swiss .
That Wahwahwahwahwahwah sound is a bit disturbing. I know most bike wheels do this but one wheel brand I've notice not so much of this is Campagnolo wheels. Now if a car was this unbalanced we wouldn't be able to achieve speeds of over 60mph. This is somewhat proof that machining of hub parts is done as cheap as possible and not perfect. Can you at least balance the wheels before you show these sound tests? It isn't hard to do.

Love that sound. you feel faster than the speed you think you are :)
lmaoooo chris king hub sounds are amazing
This sound of hub tell people that u money to burn😂😂😂 love it
this is like the lambo engine but for bikes
lmao even includes a downshift in there for you :)

I want these so bad, but then the wheelset alone will be as expensive as my entire 2013 pinarello paris. 😂
I used to have a small bell on my handlebars. Then I got some CKPC hubs. When I want to warn somebody that I’m coming, I just stop pedaling now.
hahahahhahaha
That's what the hub sounds for. Lol.
Bell: 20 US
CK hubs: 500 US
Makes sense
V tech just kicked in Yo
the sound ressonate on the carbon rim having a bassy sound😁
shitis deep
Yasssssss super Nice ❤
Jake brake sound for bikes . Sounds awesome!!
How does this wheelset compare to top end rovals?
very similar just now these wheels come with ceramic bearings and the rovals do not and the rovals are not tubeless ready and the enves are.... but in terms of performance and aerodynamics almost similar
They are heavier (183g) compared with roval rapid (lighter)
Its like a downshift but on a bike haha sick
hahahhahahha I know right???? they do put some serious technology in those hubs :)
its change sound awesome😊
I prefer when I ride by the mountains the sound of silence.
this is true
That is poetry.
I got a question on my r45D，when the wheels is on a high speed, my cassette body will keep going forward,but I saw your video your cassette body move , any suggestions for me?
get a hub service on there masybe bearings need to be serviced
I really do not get the fascination with hub sounds. What exactly is it that we're supposed to excited about here?
idk preferenece just like car muffflewrs and exhaust
I’ve been running these for a year on a gravel bike. They’re great! But they need to be adjusted.
yes at first they had a little play side to side but we got that handled
awesome👍 and pricy😩😉 still waiting for my SL7 Pro, maybe i get some enve on it. Do their more standard hubs also work well and sound good?
I have Enve 5.6 disc with alloy Enve hubs. They work great and sound almost exactly like this. CK hubs are a waste of money if you ask me.
@@tccycling thank you!
enve hubs are amazing they are really nice, dont sound exactly like ck but they are some nice sounding hubs and def hold there own in the high end wheel department
Beees i hear swarms of beees
agreed!!
what about hunt wheels? are they sound nice? planning to buy a pair from them
Loudest hubs I've ever heard, but also the best in terms of engagement I've used
@@jml191 sounds good, thank you!

@@gellertsamel9105 I'll go out to the garage and get you some cell phone footage of it tomorrow and reply here with a video link
do you do wheel balancing on this high end bikes? cause that seems to be wobbling at high speeds
so I dont no...... but also my stand is uneven, that thing wasnt that unbalanced compared to some others I have done, I did it earlier in the day and it did way better inthe other stand I just think that stand touching the floor was uneven
That's nothing compared to mine, my wife wants to use my freewheel test as an industrial vibrator
My dream hub
same
You think the ceramic upgrade is worth it,
yes all day, if you have the money and nothign else to upgrade, if you already have carbon wheels then go with this upgrade you will love it
I would have liked to see the whole spin from start to finish. Nice setup. Any performance gains?
next time I will do for you the whole spin
@@GCPerformance18 I'm trying to upgrade to full ceramic bearings. I wanting on the service manual to come in.
Hi, the durability of this type of hub with ceramic bearings is compromised by cyclists weighing over 100lbs?
really well I am 200lbs and I run ceramic everything hub bearings and bb bearings
hey is this the R45D ceramic?
yes it is
THE BEST!!! I WANT THAT TOO BUT I HAVE NO MONEY :((
you will get there for sure
i honestly thought this is gonna be some funny ass video like what you did on the ceramicspeed test
lmaooooo I can do more of those but i just wanted to show off some sexy sounds lol
What does this bike set up cost? Bike, wheels, group set, whole package.
This man spent like 12k on it
@@GCPerformance18 damn. You can get a used Vw golf with that money
@@markomarin3414 but would you rather have a brand new high end race bike, or a used low end commuter car?
@@StevenHartono Depends on what degree of an easily marketed to poser you are. 🙂
I think it is enve 5.6?
yes u are right
I live in Australia and I cannot find anyone selling Chris King r45 rim brake hubs. Do you know where I can purchase them?
I have a bunch here but I can not sell opver there
Sick!
thanks os much :)))
Wow that's awesome. How much? Which model hub? Thanks cool vid.
I know the whole wheel set was 3500 retail with the ceramic bearings and I think the wheels were the 4.5 enve wheels
dt swiss 240 with 60t is the loudest hub
I want this as a ring tone
hahahha me too!!
WOW
:))
Omg!!
super fire right??? :))
🚨🎼🤤🎼
super loud lol
🐝🐝🐝
San po makakabili ng crisking
yep yep
Sounds amazing but DT Swiss 54T ftw
realllllllly?????? watch the new video I got the 54t installe don the pro at the end of the sound test :))
@@GCPerformance18 both are exotic sounding:)
@waquzy I did 54T on my updated DT240 EXP hub innnnnnsane loud. I’ll be uploading a video in next 2 weeks.
Why Enve went away from what made their wheels special (Chris King Hubs) is beyond me
Is it just me who don't like loud sound hub? cause my team will know if i'm just resting from the back
hahhahaha yea, do not buy this if you are just suckin wheel in the back
Sounds like a DT Swiss with a 52-tooth installed.
nawwww just the chris king hub that sounds amazing, the technology is really nice on them
@@GCPerformance18 true. The worm-gear to enable a stronger connection is a-mazing. I don’t make enough power to really stress it, but it’s nice to know it’s there!
Love Chris King but my Campagnolo sounds better
Its downshifting 😂
Demasiado ruidoso
The sound is like DT Swiss hub.
once they slow down they doo but at first they sound way deeper
That would be so annoying having to listen to that everytime you cruise along.
ummmmmm who the hell is cruising????? its a sprint from start to finish no coasting lmaoooo
@@GCPerformance18 even downhill?.... you dare devil! 👹
The sound very nice but the speed go down very fast..
thtas more the osund of the hub for sure
No , I own them they are fast...but little heavy
@@stefankucera3615 the weight I think for this quality does matter to much. But very expensive.
Wheel is not balanced
NERDs abound.!!!
lmaooo
Owww plsss 😩 Chris king hub... So beautiful hub I'll ever seem.. i like to buy..but I don't have money... Still watching from the Philippines and I wish someone give a gift a hub like that.. 😩 or give away...I'll support until I'll die
I'd lube it up, it'd fucking annoy me... and I like freehub sounds in general.
Is sad but my Chinese carbon wheels hub sounds better all that shacking on that wheels is not good for a smooth rides
.............. *bruh noise*
The dt Swiss 240 with 54tsounds much better and does not have such an oscillating sound as the CK .

absolute rubbish hubs. needs costly service every 2000km

No I can’t. Sorry
hello guys, i have a question, the wheels ENVE, the logo is painting or its decals?
thank you for advance.
yes it is painted on there not stickers
