Curious about carbon? BikePark Wales has teamed up with Enve to become the only European demo centre for their wheels. For £70 a day, you can book one of a few sets of Enve wheels, later refundable if you decide they’re the wheels for you and purchase some. If anything’s going to prove their durability, it’s probably rolling down the reds and blacks at BPW attached to a hire bike As well as that, they’ve updated their range of Fox forks and shocks available for demos. They’ve even got wheels and forks for 26ers. All can be booked in advance via www.bikeparkwales.com/demo-centre

Interesting. Does it only apply to hire bikes, or can you swap out the wheels on your own steed? Seems this would be more valid as you can then do a like for like comparison..
They will fit them to your bike so you can see how your actual steed feels with carbon wheels. Costs £70 for the pleasure refundable off price of a new set of rims.
Looking forward to some deals on some demo wheels in a few months
£70 is too much just to try but i guess they are charging so much because the majority of people who will buy them have money to burn ?
Pretty sure if you turn up with £70 in your pocket just to try these, you’ve already made the decision to buy them…
If only I had £70, let alone the kind of wedge needed to afford a set of Enves. Still, I noticed a tangible difference when I swapped out my stock wheels for some Hope Hoops a while back. Would love to find out if the same applies for the jump from Hoops to Enves.
