Wider + Lighter = Better
The ENVE G27 is the ultimate adventure-ready wheelset, transforming any drop bar bike into a highly-capable adventure machine. When 650B wheels are paired with larger volume tires, the actual diameter of the outside of the tire is close to a 700c wheel with a smaller rim. This means frame geometry stays consistent between wheel sizes, but the 650B wheel adds more tire, allowing lower tire pressures and a more stable, cushy ride. This unlocks trails and fire roads typically reserved for mountain bikes, enhancing your drop-bar bike's handling with more confidence through rough terrain.
ENVE's Widest and Lightest Gravel Wheel
The G27 is the widest, and also the lightest, road/gravel wheel in ENVE's lineup. At 320g per rim, built wheelsets can be as low as 1257 grams. Paired with a generous 27mm width, these lightweights can be paired with wider tires to create a wheel system that's equal or lighter in weight to other wheels, while being stronger, quicker and more capable.
Get Low
Designed to be run with tires between 42c and 2.25", with pressures as low as 20 PSI, the G27 was made to run low. Low pressures means fewer flats, more control, and surprising to some, lower rolling resistance.
Anti-Flat Technology
ENVE's Wide Hookless Bead technology makes the G27 extremely resistant to pinch flats. When the tire is bottomed out against the rim in a hard impact, the force is spread over a wider area, decreasing the likelihood of a flat. This contributes to the G27's prowess as an off road gamechanger.

Solid performer
I've had them out on one ride so far (mounted with Pirelli Cinturato H 45mm), and covered everything from pavement to gravel to single track and back again. The wheels definitely performed to my expectations as a premium brand. In particular, the Enve hubs were smooth and fast-engaging. Mounting the Pirelli tires to the G27 was as easy as any tubeless set up. Seated with a floor pump no problems. During the whole ride (extremely windy btw), the wheels felt predictable while also plenty fast and fun.
My only minor stumbling block with these wheels (Enve in general) is the absence of rim tape from the factory, which is forgivable since they are internal nipples and it doesn't hurt to true the wheels out of the box, and no center lock rings. Just feels like they miss the mark compared to most other premium brands.

Great wheels so far
I'm running these with Rene Herse 650x48 Switchback Hill slicks on an OPEN U.P.P.E.R. and have about 170 miles, half gravel half road. They are great so far. They feel fast even without any aero benefit. They feel light when climbing and my pair weigh 583g for front wheel and 703g for rear wheel (shimano free hub). As expected with 650s, they feel more agile on steering through technical areas, but they're a little twitchy on road descents above 25mph compared to 700c's but easy to get used to. Highly recommend.
I did in-store pickup and it was friction-less. I also called support once for advice and they were very knowledgeable. I'll definitely buy here again.

Superb Wheels, at a cost
The best gravel wheels you can get - lightweight, durable, smooth-running. The only problem is the cost, but you get what you pay for.
