The Purpose _

<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>

The Purpose _

The 4 Season Gravel is a staple in our range, built for those who ride the path less travelled. Updated with our latest, highly durable ratchet drive hub system to handle the increased torque of wide-range drivetrains. With a high spoke count and oversized double-sealed cartridge bearings, you can enjoy ‘fit & forget’ performance whilst exploring, bikepacking,or CX racing, knowing your wheels are up to whatever the ride plan entails.

We’ve invested in high-specification components such as 6066-T6 aluminium alloy rims, hubs and triple butted spokes, so you don't pay a weight penalty for extra off-road durability.

Tyres Info
HUNT recommends a 35-50mm tyre for best performance, tyre widths between 29mm and 60mm are also safe to use.   Note: best performance is usually gained by using tyre 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 tyre pressure limits set out in the table below or the maximum limit set by your tyre manufacturer if this is lower.

HIGH SPECIFICATION COMPONENTS _

Rims

A strong and lightweight 6066-T6 (+34% tensile strength vs 6061-T6) heat-treated alloy rim features an asymmetric shape which is inverted from front to rear to provide balanced higher spoke tensions meaning your spokes stay tight for the long term. The rim profile is disc specific which allows higher strength-to-weight as no reinforcement is required for a braking surface. The wide rim at 29mm (25mm internal) which creates a great tyre profile with wider 35mm-50mm tyres

Rim bed

H-Lock tubeless-ready rim bed profile. 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 tyres. The H-Lock profile also locks the beads in place more securely once seated. This is especially important when running lower pressures off road.

H_Ratchet Hub

H_Ratchet 36T hubs offer a rapid 10-degree engagement angle in a reliable, easy-to-service and long-lasting ratchet drive system. 

Bearings

The heart of any wheel. Investing in them makes huge sense. We use high-grade precision sealed cartridge bearings with proprietary waterproof grease specially selected for even the worst weather.

Freehub Body

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

Nipples

To accompany these high-end spokes we selected brass nipples for our Hunt 4 Season 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.

We chose Pillar triple butted spokes for their lower weight and greater degree of elasticity, which improves tension consistency and resists fatigue. The PSR J-bend spokes feature increased2.2mmthickness at the spoke head, providing more material in this high stress area. 

What's in the box _

  • HUNT Black Shield tubeless tape fitted to wheels.
  • The axle adapters needed for your bike, just fill in the simple form shown after order completion, the form is also included in your order confirmation page.
  • Cassette spacer for 8/9/10 speed

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 130 kg (system weight – total weight of fully kitted up rider, bike and luggage) If the system is over 120 kgs then an experienced bike mechanic should check the wheel regularly.
