Too lazy to read this entire thread so this may be repetitive; but just wanted to say that ENVE’s warranty policy is absolutely amazing.
I thrashed the bead hook on one of my SES 3.4s with tire levers because i suck at changing tires. Sent them some pics of a chipped bead hook. Sent me a prepaid label to return my existing wheel and had a brand new one in a week.
And their policy basically says that if your wheel breaks for almost any reason, they will do the same thing. Best support from almost any company I’ve ever dealt with.
