RE:NEW HUNT 4 Season Aero Wheelset
<h1>Rims</h1><i>High-performance technology that will deliver you to the finish every time, especially those all important rain-soaked sign post finishes with your mates on a long training ride. A strong and lightweight 6061-T6 heat-treated sleeved rim features a semi-aero rounded profile 28mm deep and wide at 24mm (19mm internal) for a great tyre profile with wider 25-45mm tyres, giving excellent grip and lower rolling resistance.</i>
<h1>Nipples</h1><i>To accompany these high-end spokes we selected brass nipples for our Hunt 4Season wheels. Brass is strong and corrosion resistant plus it has self-lubricating properties to prevent issues that can arise from grit salt on the winter roads corroding the fine threads in alloy nipples. As well as the standard square body we chose nipples with a hex head so you can achieve precise tensioning.</i>
<h1>Hubs</h1><i>Extra seals and shielding built-into all four hub caps and the freehub body. As you can see from the image in the gallery each hub cap and the freehub body have o-ring seals (the freehub cap has a lip seal). It's also important that the hub shell is designed to overlap the hub caps providing extra shielding from water ingress. Your Hunt 4Season Aero wheels will provide many miles of fast hassle-free year round riding.</i>
<h1>Bearings</h1><i>The heart of any wheel. Investing in them makes huge sense. We sought out something extra and that is why the bearings are supplied by TPI. We invested extra to spec their high-grade precision sealed cartridge bearings which are trusted by many of the world's leading engineering, cycling and automotive companies. The TPI bearings are also upgraded to LU/LB seals which are low-friction on the inside and provide maximum sealing on the exposed faces.</i>
<h1>Rim Bed</h1><i>H-Lock is our tubeless-ready rim bed profile with up-kicks to the shoulders of the tubeless steps which help to create a great rim-well seal for first installation and easy sealing of tubeless tires. The H-Lock profile also locks the beads in place more securely once seated. This is especially important when running lower pressures or riding off-road.</i>
<h1>Skewers</h1><i>The little details matter, the Hunt 4Season quick-release polymer-cam skewers even have upgraded stainless steel springs so they don’t rust.</i>
<h1>Rim Profile</h1>
<h1>Spokes</h1><i>We chose the top-of-the-range Pillar Spoke Re-enforcement PSR XTRA models. These butted blade spokes are lighter but also provide a greater degree of elasticity and thus maintain spoke tensions longer and are more fatigue resistant. PSR spokes feature the wider 2.2 width at the spoke head providing more material in this high stress area. J-bend made sense for four season use as replacements are easy to find. The nipples are brass, which is strong and corrosion resistant.</i>
<h1>Freehub Body</h1><i>Featuring a 3 multi-point pawls with 3 teeth each and a 48t ratchet ring results in an impressively low 7.5 deg engagement angle and excellent resistance to wear under heavy loads. The 4Season freehub also features strong individual leaf pawl springs which are faster at rebounding in poor winter conditions when viscous grease and grime can affect weaker springs. There is also a Steel Spline Insert re-enforcement to provide excellent durability against cassette sprocket damage.</i>
<h1>Tires</h1><i>At HUNT, we enjoy the puncture resistance and grip benefits of tubeless on our every-day rides so we wanted to allow our customers the same option. Of course, all of our tubeless-ready wheels are designed to work perfectly with clincher tires and inner tubes too.</i>
<h1>Weight</h1><i>The consequence of the fanatic attention to detail is a resulting 1579 gram wheelset weight. For such a durable wheelset acceleration and climbing are delivered with ease, just don't tell your ride mates your secret.</i>

    • Warranty, HUNT Rolling Road Tests & Weight Limits

    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.

    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 286lbs (system weight – total weight of fully kitted up rider, bike and luggage). If a rider is over 243lbs then an experienced bike mechanic should check the wheel regularly and it is advisable to use tires minimum 25mm 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.

    60 Day Ride & Return Period. We are certain you'll be impressed by the acceleration, low-weight, speed and durability of our wheels. We are cyclists and as such strive to offer class leading service and support. Buy with confidence, if for any reason you wish to return the wheels for a full refund of your order you can do so up to a full 60 days after you receive them whether they have been ridden or not. Please note we cannot offer refunds on wheels that have suffered from crash damage but do offer a crash replacement discount.
