HUNT 35 Carbon Gravel X-Wide Hookless Wheelset
<h1>Rims</h1><i>A strong and super-lightweight hookless rim featuring unidirectional T24/30 carbon fibre with 3K weave re-enforced spoke holes. The wide aero profile delivers excellent handling and speed. The evolution of disc-specific construction has allowed massive weight savings over equivalent rim-brake rims. The removal of braking forces on the rim allows a strong but very light rim to be designed that can focus on it's primary roles of supporting the tyre and spoke forces.</i>
<h1>Spokes</h1><i>We chose the top-of-the-range Pillar Spoke Re-enforcement PSR XTRA models. These butted blade aero spokes are lighter and provide a greater degree of elasticity to maintain tensions and add fatigue resistance. These PSR J-bend spokes feature the 2.2 width at the spoke head providing more material in this high stress area. The nipples come with a square head so you can achieve precise tensioning. Combining these components well is key which is why all Hunt wheels are hand-built.</i>
<h1>Bearings</h1><i>The heart of any wheel. Investing in them makes huge sense. We use high-grade precision smooth-rolling sealed cartridge bearings by EZO Japan.</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>Rim Surface</h1><i>V:Absorbe resin reduces vibration and massively improves impact resistance. Disc brake rims are obviously not required to handle the high temperatures induced by prolonged rim braking. We have made the most of this and used our new V:Absorbe resin blends in the carbon layering which cures at a lower temperature. Lower temperature resins are less brittle meaning they have greater resistance to impacts and dampen vibration more effectively.</i>
<h1>Rim Bed</h1><i><em>H_LOCK</em> 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 <em>H_LOCK</em> profile also locks the beads in place more securely once seated. This is especially important when running lower pressures off road.</i>
<h1>Hookless Technology</h1><i>Hookless rims are manufactured without bead hooks, the inward protruding edges at the top of the rim bed that help to retain clincher tyres under pressure. The internal rim walls of a hookless rim are flat and straight</i>
<h1>Hookless Rims</h1><i>The key benefits of hookless can be distilled down to the following: <ul><li> Stronger rim construction</li><li>Lighter weight rims</li><li>Slightly more aerodynamic profile of the global system (rim and tyre combined)</li><li>Lower manufacturing costs (which benefit the rider if they are passed on) and less waste generated during production</li></ul></i>

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 _

Introducing the Carbon Gravel X-Wide Hookless: Carry speed over the seriously rough stuff with confidence on these super-wide rims optimised for wide tyres. The 35mm depth was selected for stiffness and burly strength, knowing that you’ll likely be spending plenty of miles off-road.

Featuring the 5 degree RapidEngage 6-pawl hub (inclusive of H_CERAMIK freehub) this wheelset offers riders a more burly option for hardcore gravel/drop-bar off-road riding and racing! Benefitting further from a 24 front and 28 rear spoke count (for up to 120kg riders), the result is a strong gravel/bike-packing wheelset for the heaviest of duties! Hit the trails, HARD!

KEY FEATURES_

Hookless/Straight Side-Wall

35mm-deep and 31mm-wide external rim profile, featuring a hookless/straight-sidewall and ETRTO-compliant tubeless rim, designed for gravel tubeless tyre compatibility.

Asymmetric Profile

Durability and control when you need it the most. The asymmetric rim profile on the 35 Carbon Gravel X-Wide has been designed with compliance and impact resistance top of mind so you can worry less.

Hubs

HUNT 4 Season Disc J-bend spoke hubs with extra bearing shielding. 5 degree RapidEngage 6-pawl freehub, with H_CERAMIK coating for enhanced durability. Centre-lock disc mount.

Spokes 

Pillar PSR reinforced spokes with Black for increased wear and corrosion resistance.

Tyres Info
HUNT recommends a 40mm tyre for best performance, tyre widths between 29mm and 64mm 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. Only use tyres marked as compatible with hookless (TSS) rims. 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.

Hookless rims are manufactured without bead hooks, the inward protruding edges at the top of the rim bed that help to retain clincher tyres under pressure. The internal rim walls of a hookless rim are flat and straight The key benefits of hookless can be distilled down to the following:

  • Stronger rim construction
  • Lighter weight rims
  • Slightly more aerodynamic profile of the global system (rim and tyre combined)
  • Lower manufacturing costs (which benefit the rider if they are passed on) and less waste generated during production
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.
