BOTM: WI.DE. FORCE/EAGLE/ENVE

Andy Kessler - 20-Aug-2021
We have been asked many times if we can upgrade our best selling WI.DE. Force/Eagle complete bike with carbon wheels. Now we can! We have a new complete bike coming with full ENVE specifications and the legendary SRAM Mullet drivetrain.



This bike represents the ultimate components for building a "go anywhere" gravel/dirt/singletrack/asphalt machine.

SRAM Force AXS drivetrain, Eagle XX1 AXS rear derailleur, ENVE cockpit, seatpost and ENVE AG 25 or 28 wheels with Industry 9 hubs.

Can it get any better? Ok, one important thing to mention: You can preorder now trough our webshop or through our good OPEN partners but shipment will be end of October.

Check out the gallery:

How do I know what size bike I need? The medium and large both overlap my physical conformation.
Please advise; I am very interested in the bike.

Hi there! How’s that the weight of the Enve build is the same than the Easton/ DT Swiss build if just the wheels are one kg lighter? Or is it a mistake? Thanks!

Hi Franc, where you are right you are right. But the wheels are not 1kg lighter that would be a bit too much. Correct weights are 8.2 and 8.5 for this one

Hi gerrard,
I am interested in buyingg open wide
I am 183 cm
I ride a colnago c60 in a size 52s
I also have an Ibis Hakka size 53 which I find too short in the reach
I have relatively short legs compared to torso
I have a saddle height 73.2 from the middle of the crank
I have a 110mm stem

I am concerned the large in the open will leave too little seat post but have good reach
I am concerned the medium may haver too little reach

Dear James, You are a size Large for sure. Why I know that I have the exactly same measures as you. I ride with a 90 stem so probably for you 90 or 100 is fine. But Large it is. Send me a mail and I send you a picture how my bikes look

Hi There, as a gravel bike do you have any preference over the up or the wide?

Hi Peter, Its like in the plane. The choice is chicken or beef? Seriously I think it depends on the mix road/offroad. I would say if you ride more than 60% offroad then for sure the WIDE. But both are obviously great bikes...

Probably a hard question to answer, but any updates on when you might have complete bikes back in stock?
