MASON x HUNT Search 29 MTB Dynamo Disc Wheelset
<h1>Made for how you ride</h1><i>Enhanced to perfectly compliment your riding, the Search 29 Dynamo Disc is for those "Josh" type of riders. Just pack your bags and enjoy complete freedom without boundaries.</i>
<h1>Tubeless Tires Fitted</h1><i>Gain the most out of your riding with a set of tubeless Maxxis or Schwalbe Tires fitted and set up tubeless with sealant ready to roll straight out of the box.</i>
<h1>Weight</h1><i>The consequence of the fanatic attention to detail is incredible durability and a resulting low 2282g wheelset weight.</i>
<h1>Freehub Body</h1><i>Durability is a theme for Hunt as time and money you spend fixing is time and money you cannot spend riding or upgrading your bikes. As a result, we've developed the H_CERAMIK coating to provide excellent durability and protect against cassette sprocket damage often seen on standard alloy freehub bodies.</i>
<h1>Bearings</h1><i>Bearings are the heart of any wheel and investing in them makes huge sense so we went to Japanese bearing experts EZO and invested extra to spec their high-grade precision sealed cartridge bearings in our full range.</i>
<h1>Nipples</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 Pillar Spoke Reinforcement (PSR) puts more material at the spoke head, just before the J-Bend to prevent failure in this stress area.</i>
<h1>Rims</h1><i>The Search 29 rim includes details which are high on the durability factor to make sure you finish every ride with a big grin. The 6069-T6 (+69% tensile strength vs 6061-T6) alloy rim sticks with the wider-is-better mantra. Designed for 2.3"-2.5" tires, the wide 30mm (internal) rim provides support to the tire during hard cornering, landing in a root strewn shoot or when your throttling down a high-speed section and folding a tire is the last thing you need to happen!</i>
<h1>Rim Profile</h1><i>Like all of our wheels, the Hunt MTB line-up is designed to be used as a tubeless system. Featuring a H-Lock rim bead with 'up-kicks' to the shoulders of the rim bed secures your tyre when seated. This prevents side-to-side movement reducing the chance of burping your tire. It creates a great rim-well seal for first installation and easy sealing of tubeless tires. Still haven't made the switch? All our wheels are tube compatible as well.</i>

The Purpose _

The Purpose _

We've been working with Mason Progressive Cycles since our very first wheelset, and we're excited to announce the Search 29 Dynamo Disc, our fourth collaborative effort. The wheelset is designed to perfectly accompany Mason's new InSearchOf.

'Covering huge distances and riding fast across every imaginable terrain is the territory of the radical new InSearchOf. The full custom Mason X Dedacciai steel tubeset gives incredible ride quality and feedback with multiple mounting points and huge clearance for high volume tires'. The Mason x HUNT Search 29 Dynamo Disc wheelset is the result. It features all of the fine details you’d come to expect from us, including our rough-ready Trail Wide MTB rim, extra sealed and shielded 4 Season Disc rear hub, and a seriously durable high 32-spoke build (of Pillar's light and extremely strong triple-butted PSR spokes). Even with the extra weight of the dynamo hub, this wheelset is still lighter than many disc-brake wheels fitted to bikes as original equipment.

KEY FEATURES_

Rims 

Highly durable 6069 T6 welded construction, 30mm wide (internal), work-hardened shot-peened finish to give you full confidence in your wheels, wherever you take them.

<h1>Made for how you ride</h1><i>Enhanced to perfectly compliment your riding, the Search 29 Dynamo Disc is for those "Josh" type of riders. Just pack your bags and enjoy complete freedom without boundaries.</i>

Dynamo Front Hub

SON 28 (15x110 boost MTB spacing). 3 watt / 6 volt output at 18-19kmh tested to German standard K687 for output requirement. Hubs have 6 bolt disc mounts.

Rear Hub 

6 individual pawls resulting in just a 5 degree engagement angle; boost (12x148) spacing. Large double sealed cartridge bearings.

TECHNOLOGY _

Drop-bar road and adventure bikes are designed for going fast, whereas many dynamo hubs were designed for town bikes. The rapid advancement and incredible efficiency of LED lighting compared to older halogen bulbs has meant that lights such as the Exposure Revo (available as a package with these wheels - please click here) would run at its whopping 800 lumen output at just 10mph. SON realised that by using a smaller/lighter generator, they could reduce drag by an impressive 20% and still achieve the 3 watt / 6 volt output (800 lumens on the Revo light) at just 11-12mph. Even at 10mph, you will get upwards of 500 lumens from the Exposure Revo light! The super-fast SON 28 is the result of this innovative thinking... 20% better rolling resistance and lower weight, only 480g.

With the light off/unplugged (e.g. daylight riding) the graph below shows that for the SON 28 there is less than half a watt extra rolling resistance compared to a high quality normal non-dynamo hub. For a bit of context; for a 1 hour commute fast training ride, as very amateur cyclists here at HUNT, we would expect to produce somewhere between 160-300 watts average depending on our weight and level of fitness.

Tires Info
HUNT recommends a 2.35" to 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.  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.

Bike Magazine and Websites Expert's Views

"Never-faultless performance and great value: a must for your list if you're looking into dynamo power"

SINGLETRACK REVIEW

"With the Trail Wide being upgraded to a tougher alloy, and with only a slight increase in weight I believe that they are going to prove to be one of the best sub £400 wheelsets on the market for some time to come. They look classy, the quality is spot on and they keep rolling even when they’ve been battered."

  • Freehub fitted
  • 45mm Tubeless Valves
  • Spare of each spoke plus nipples
  • 2x Spade Connector

WARRANTY_

A full 3 years from purchase date warranty is offered to the original purchaser only on all Hunt bike wheels against material or workmanship defects, please click here to read full details.

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 cobbled-rolling-road 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 minimum 25mm tires at max 100psi as this will reduce the fatigue on the wheelset. We are cyclists ourselves and do of course go above and beyond to offer excellent service if you ever do experience any issues. We carry full spares at very reasonable prices and offer complete support.
