It's an ENVE 2.0, the wheels are Reynolds Aero 65s. The GP4000IIs initially fit, but after a week or so of riding they stretched out and the front rubs.

Yeah, I have 28s currently on my CAAD12 and there's plenty of room left

I bet Kirk, Strong, Kellogg, Goodrich could all build you a race bike that fits wider tires.

I picked a used Goodrich from the forum that fits 28’s with ease and it is all I rode this summer. It can probably take wider, but I have tubeless 28’s on it and it is simply a superb riding bike.

Good to know. About to pull the trigger on the Hunt 4Season Aero wheels and was going to run them tubeless with the Schwalbe Pro Ones in 25, but was also thinking about the 28s. Is your CAAD12 rim or disc? What tire/rim combination are you using?

The new version of the supersix supports very wide (28s have plenty of room) as well. As do all previously mentioned treks and specialized. good news. I put/dry fit my g-one gravel 35s in a disc version of a cannondale synapse iwth room as well (not a true racebike, but just to see) which makes me think for our local (Hell of Hunterdon, Fool's Classic) fast gravel-ly type stuff it might be perfect...
