Performance From Every Angle

Inside the Melee V2 Frameset Platform

Real World Fast

Developed to Win

The new Melee is our first ground-up aero bicycle development using our Real-World Fast protocol.

  • Developed at Mercedes-Petronas Wind Tunnel
  • Partnered with renowned aerodynamicist Simon Smart to develop the new Melee's tube shapes and components
  • Real-World Fast applied to frame design with rider on board

Black, the color of speed

Ultralight Paint

UL Black Melee v2 features an ultralight clear over raw carbon finish with minimal graphics, putting it 40g lighter than the White Lightning and other fully painted Melee v2 bikes.

World Tour Level Race Bike

Evolution for Speed

In 2022, ENVE introduced its first production road bike – the Melee – a race bike that offered unprecedented versatility and established a foundation of performance. Melee v2 builds upon this foundation to deliver a truly world class, benchmark World Tour level race bike.

Singular Objective of Going Faster

A Refined Racer

  • Reducing total frame surface area by 7.5%
  • New headset design using smaller bearing
  • New seat post design with lightweight rail clamp
  • BSA bottom bracket and UDH for weight savings

Ultralight

Mission 6.8

Achieving under 6.8 kg complete bicycle is not an insignificant challenge in the era of disc brakes, batteries, and the never ending pursuit for more aerodynamic efficiency.

A Melee v2 with UL Black paint, in size 56cm, can readily achieve a complete bike weight of 6.8 kg.
