You asked, and we delivered! The HUNT 650B Adventure Carbon wheelset is designed to serve as the ultimate weapon for 650b gravel shredding.

Perfect for those fun trail thrashes and bike-packing adventures, whilst not compromising anything for fast-far road days.

The opportunity to open up your riding comes from bikes which have geometry designed to ride excellently with both 700c or 27.5" (650b) wheels. This combination works thanks to the extra volume in a 2" x 27.5” tire, providing an almost identical external tire diameter to a normal road sized 700c wheel with a 33mm tire, leaving the bike geo unchanged. What was needed was a bike that could accommodate the extra tire width, while still running road groupsets, geo and components. These bikes are increasing in popularity and availability continuously!
We’ve designed a specific new rim profile for our new Gravel/Adventure wheels. Key features of this rim that make it great for the focused purpose of drop-bar adventure/gravel road riding are:
Wider 33mm external/26mm internal rim provides excellent ride handling and support for wider tires, and they work perfectly with (up to) 2.2” MTB tires.
The 26mm rim delivers excellent strength needed for the lower spoke counts and higher gear torques from road groupsets when compared to MTB setups.
Asymmetric rim accommodates the front disc and rear cassette hub offsets, and helps build an even stronger and more durable wheelset owing to balanced spoke tensions.
Other key features that make the AdventureSport wheels ideal for Dual 27.5"/700c bikes:
Fully adaptable axles, set up ready for your bike, out of the box.
Hard wearing laser etched graphics, which also save extra grams.
Hunt 4Season Disc hubs with excellent bearing coverage and protection for long running life.
SRAM XD compatible. 'Dual 27.5/700c' bikes are ideal for 1x single front ring groupsets.
Supplied with thru axle adaptors included as pretty much all 'Dual 27.5/700c' bikes run thru axles only. Read Less
