At $8,250, this is the entry point of ENVE's Spec'd for Speed lineup, and it gets you further than you might expect. The same 950-gram MOG carbon frame, the same SRAM Force XPLR AXS drivetrain with integrated power meter, the same ENVE carbon cockpit, saddle, seatpost, and finishing kit as the Premium Force build above it. The one place where ENVE trims the spec to arrive at this price is the wheels — and even there, you are still rolling on ENVE carbon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Foundation Force XPLR is built around the ENVE AR40, a 40mm aerodynamically optimized carbon wheel from ENVE's Foundation lineup. This is not a budget wheel wearing a premium brand name. It is an ENVE-engineered carbon wheelset, designed for all-road and gravel use, matched to the MOG platform. For a rider coming to ENVE for the first time, the AR40 is a legitimate starting point. For a rider who already owns a set of ENVE's G23 or SES wheels and wants a second build, it is a completely sensible spec that leaves room to run your preferred setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEverything else on this bike — the frame, the drivetrain, the cockpit — is exactly what you get in the Premium Force build. That matters, because it means the part of the bike you interact with most (the drivetrain feel, the fit, the frame's ride character) is unchanged. The AR40 performs well on the terrain the MOG was designed for. The step up to G23 or carbon race wheels is something you can make later, if and when you want it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Drivetrain: Force XPLR with Power Meter, Fully Intact\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSRAM Force XPLR AXS runs the drivetrain here — the same groupset as the Premium Force, without a single compromise. Wireless AXS shifting, the 1x XPLR rear derailleur built for wide-range cassettes and rough terrain, and ENVE's IN-Route cable management keeping hoses and wires hidden from the wind. The spider-based SRAM Force XPLR power meter crankset is standard, in crank lengths of 165mm, 170mm, and 172.5mm with a 42t chainring. You have power data on your first ride without sourcing a separate meter or budgeting for one later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eForce XPLR AXS is worth understanding on its own terms, not just as the step below Red. It shifts crisply, handles the load and mud and variable conditions that gravel throws at a drivetrain, and runs the same AXS firmware platform as Red. The wireless battery system is the same. The AXS app integration is the same. On the MOG, which does so much of the work of making the bike feel composed and lively, Force XPLR is genuinely sufficient for anything from an afternoon gravel loop to a multi-day bikepacking route.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Wheels: ENVE AR40\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe AR40 is ENVE's Foundation-tier carbon wheel, built with an aerodynamically shaped 40mm rim designed for all-road and gravel riding. It is a 700c wheel made by the same company that produces the G23 and SES series — using the same engineering approach, the same quality control, and the same philosophy of building things properly rather than building them cheaply. The AR40 is not a step sideways from ENVE; it is a step into ENVE at a more accessible price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor riders doing mixed-surface riding, training rides, gravel events where the terrain is moderate, or simply their first season on a dedicated gravel platform, the AR40 is a perfectly capable wheel. It handles the HEX Gravel Tires that come on this build without compromise. When you are ready to add a set of G23 race wheels or SES carbon hoops for your A-events, those can come later. The Foundation gives you the bike now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Cockpit, Saddle, and Finish: All ENVE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNothing changes here from the Premium builds. The SES AR One-Piece Handlebar in 38cm to 42cm widths with integrated stem lengths from 90mm to 130mm. The option to swap to the SES AR Road IN-Route Handlebar or the Gravel IN-Route Handlebar if you prefer internal routing or a different bar shape. The IN-Route Aero Road or High Rise Stem. The ENVE x Selle Italia Boost SLR carbon saddle. The ENVE Carbon seatpost at 27.2mm. Two C.I.M. carbon bottle cages, ENVE handlebar tape in Grey, Black, or White, and your choice of computer mount. The Foundation does not look like a budget build. It looks like a MOG.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul class=\"specs_at_a_glance\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame:\u003c\/strong\u003e ENVE M.O.D Carbon, 950g (size 56, claimed), T47 threaded BB, flat-mount disc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFork:\u003c\/strong\u003e ENVE M.O.D Carbon, 12x100mm thru-axle, 395mm axle-to-crown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear Axle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12x142mm thru-axle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadset:\u003c\/strong\u003e ENVE Integrated IS52\/IS52 Internal Drop-In\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeatpost:\u003c\/strong\u003e ENVE Carbon, 27.2mm x 400mm, 0mm or 25mm offset\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTire Clearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 700c x 50mm max (optimal 40-44mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 49, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFork Rake:\u003c\/strong\u003e Size-specific (57\/55\/53mm across six sizes)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrivetrain:\u003c\/strong\u003e SRAM Force XPLR AXS KIB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrankset:\u003c\/strong\u003e SRAM Force XPLR AXS Power Meter (spider-based) — 165\/170\/172.5mm, 42t\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheels:\u003c\/strong\u003e ENVE AR40 (aerodynamically optimized 40mm carbon, Foundation lineup)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTires:\u003c\/strong\u003e ENVE HEX Gravel, Tan or Black, 40\/44\/48\/52mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandlebar (standard):\u003c\/strong\u003e ENVE SES AR One-Piece, 38-42cm wide, 90-130mm stem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSaddle:\u003c\/strong\u003e ENVE x Selle Italia Boost SLR Carbon, 130mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccessories:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2x C.I.M.

And if what you want is not in the configurator, the RA Cycles team can source it. Reach out and they will work it into your build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOrdering and Delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you check out, your card is authorized and held — not charged — until an RA Custom Studios consultant reviews and confirms your configuration with you. They will be in touch by email or phone to walk through your spec before any build begins. Every bike ships fully assembled and quality-checked. Minimal setup is needed on arrival, and your RA specialist is available by FaceTime if anything comes up. Riders near Brooklyn, Walnut Creek, or Miami can pick up in person. Lead times vary by availability and will be confirmed by your consultant after your order is placed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFinancing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRA Cycles offers financing through Affirm, Klarna, and Shop Pay. Subject to approval, 0% APR options may be available.

The frame is the same. The drivetrain is the same. The cockpit and saddle are the same. The AR40 is a legitimate ENVE carbon wheel. At $8,250, this is not a compromised version of the MOG. It is the MOG, built thoughtfully for where it makes sense to start.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ENVE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45414550241324,"sku":null,"price":8250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0608\/7684\/9196\/files\/ENVE_MOG_FoundationForceXPLR_Green.png?v=1774644455","url":"https:\/\/racycles.com\/pt\/products\/enve-mog-foundation-force-xplr-custom-bike","provider":"RA Cycles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
