HUNT Proven Carbon Race Enduro 27.5 Wheelset
<h1>Rims</h1><i>The re-engineered hookless rim profile of the Proven Race Enduro provides stability and comfort in the roughest of race environments. The rim wall is reinforced for protection against harsh rock strikes, while the 30mm internal width offers maximum support for modern trial and enduro tires.</i>
<h1>Nipples</h1><i>Keeping weight to a minimum, we use hard-anodized alloy nipples. Known for their strength and durability, our nipples won't let you down in the middle of a stage and feature square internal and external heads for ease of maintenance and adjustment. </i>
<h1>Freehub Body</h1><i>Available with SRAM XD, Shimano Microspline or HG freehubs.</i>
<h1>Bearings</h1><i>Our precision CNC hubs house double-sealed Revo bearings providing long service intervals. In addition, the free-spinning bearings maintain low levels of friction for an ultra-efficient ride and long life.</i>
<h1>Adaptability</h1><i>Our wheels are seriously future-proof. We can adapt your wheels to any current axle standard on the market, you just need to let us know what are your requirements by filling in the simple form on the confirmation page after checkout.</i>
<h1>Spokes</h1><i>We have chosen top of the line, triple butted Pillar Spokes with increased reinforcement at the spoke head. Not only are these spokes extremely lightweight, they are also able to provide a greater degree of elasticity when put under increased stress. Whatsmore the spokes feature a different gauge front and rear to further enhanced the tuned nature of Race Enduro.</i>
<h1>Rim Bed</h1><i>A re-worked rim bed design makes tubeless tire installation a breeze. At the same time our engineers ensured a large flat area to fend off pinch flats when running lower tire pressures.</i>
<h1>Weight</h1><i>Throughout the development of the Proven Race Enduro carbon rim, every aspect of its design was tested for stress and reinforced if necessary. Through this constant testing and revision, Hunt engineers also pinpointed areas where material could safely be removed, to ensure a perfect balance of weight and durability.</i>

The Purpose _

<h1>Rims</h1><i>The re-engineered hookless rim profile of the Proven Race Enduro provides stability and comfort in the roughest of race environments. The rim wall is reinforced for protection against harsh rock strikes, while the 30mm internal width offers maximum support for modern trial and enduro tires.</i>

The Purpose _

Tailored to maximise traction and accuracy on the unrelenting stages of the Enduro World Series. Tuned for front wheel comfort and precision and rear wheel strength and durability. Developed in the UK and Proven around the globe during the 2022 EWS season under Chloe Taylor and Fergus Ryan.

Proprietary front and rear carbon layup and weave, with specific front and rear spoke gauges for a fully tuned carbon wheel system. What sets Race Enduro apart is the tailored front and rear rim carbon layups, each aimed to offer specific ride properties. The front is tuned for comfort, while the rear can withstand impacts and compressions. All this while providing precise control and reducing fatigue during those long EWS stages.

KEY FEATURES_

<h1>Spokes</h1><i>We have chosen top of the line, triple butted Pillar Spokes with increased reinforcement at the spoke head. Not only are these spokes extremely lightweight, they are also able to provide a greater degree of elasticity when put under increased stress.

The rim wall is reinforced for protection against harsh rock strikes, while the 30mm internal width offers maximum support for modern trial and enduro tires.</i>

Bearings

Super smooth, replaceable, Revo bearings offer fast rolling performance. Dual full-contact seals and long-lasting, heat-resistant grease protect against water ingress for longer service intervals.

<h1>Freehub Body</h1><i>Available with SRAM XD, Shimano Microspline or HG freehubs.</i>

Hubs 

Large body Hunt Enduro front hub and 5 degree RapidEngage rear hub. Large double sealed cartridge bearings. Rock Shox Torque Caps for Boost hubs are available.

Axles 

Extra thick 17mm 7075-T6 axles for increased strength and stiffness. Reducing flex in the hub also helps to increase bearing life.

TECHNOLOGY _

The HUNT Engineering team uses our custom impact rig to test Proven Race Enduro alongside leading competitors and our own wheelsets. The graph below shows the impact energy (J) recorded at the first sign of failure. Our new Proven Race Enduro exhibits an impact strength 12J greater than that of the HUNT All-Mountain Carbon H_Impact wheelset.

Tires Info
HUNT recommends a 2.4"-2.6" tire for best performance, tire widths between 1.9" and 2.8" are also safe to use.   Note: best performance is usually gained by using tire pressures lower than the maximum, you can see our blog post about this, read here.  Tubeless-ready for lower weight and rolling resistance.  Only use tires marked as compatible with hookless (TSS) rims.  You must not exceed the maximum tire pressure limits set out in the table below or the maximum limit set by your tire manufacturer if this is lower.

What's in the box _

  • Black Shield PET high tensile strength tubeless tape fitted to wheels.
  • Freehub fitted
  • 45mm Tubeless Valves
  • Spare of each spoke plus nipples
  • Quality control card signed by your wheel builder

Items included in the box with the 30 Carbon Aero Disc: A spare of each spoke and tubeless valves

WARRANTY_

These wheels come with H_CARE (Free Lifetime Crash Replacement) for the first owners when used with single crown forks. Read all about it here.

Stated wheel weights: Our stated wheel weights reflect the wheelset only; without rim tape, tubeless valves or disc brake lock rings, as is industry standard. A 3% variance (lower or higher) in total system weight is normal for wheelset manufacturing.

All HUNT wheels models have to pass our harsh rolling-drum fatigue tests for rider weight limits, please see here for more details. Max system weight 297 lb (system weight – total weight of fully kitted up rider, bike and luggage). If the system is over 273 lb then an experienced bike mechanic should check the wheel regularly and it is advisable to use tires at max 40psi as this will reduce the fatigue on the wheelset.
