One-piece carbon construction eliminates the bonded joints that create stress risers in conventional fork designs. The ENVE 2.0 Road Fork runs continuous carbon fibers from the top of the steerer tube through the crown and down to the dropouts, creating a hollow monocoque structure with no secondary bonding operations. This manufacturing approach delivers the stiffness-to-weight ratio that makes ENVE the default fork choice for artisan frame builders and riders building custom road bikes around rim brake frames.

The brake caliper mounting hole uses the same molded construction philosophy as ENVE's wheel spoke holes. Rather than drilling through cured carbon and cutting structural fibers, ENVE routes the carbon around the brake mount opening during the molding process. This technique maintains continuous fiber paths that preserve structural integrity while actually reducing weight compared to drilling operations that require additional reinforcement material. The fork leaves the mold ready to install, requiring only steerer tube cutting to match your frame's stack height.

A 43mm rake provides balanced steering response that works across road bike geometry variations. The 367mm axle-to-crown measurement fits standard road frame designs, and the 1-1/4" tapered steerer interfaces with frames using that crown race specification. The fork clears tires up to 25mm wide, covering the tire sizes that rim brake calipers can accommodate. Quick release dropouts use standard 9mm x 100mm front spacing, and the mid-reach caliper mount accepts brakes with 47-57mm reach.... Read More
