FWIW, I'm finding the 43mm fork offset (ENVE 1.5" tapered is available only with that offset) may have too much trail for my liking (looking for more carve from bike lean and less tendency to pull straight). Craig recommended moving up to a 50mm offset fork, but at least from ENVE that would mean using the straight 1.125" steerer and changing out our lower Chris King I7 headset for a I1. I phoned ENVE to inquire about getting a tapered with more offset, but nada. Their forks are made in China, and so no custom local builds.

A possible alternate fork....
Disappointing I thought they made all their products in the US.
