HUNT 4 Season Gravel X-Wide Wheelset
HUNT 4 Season Gravel X-Wide Wheelset
HUNT 4 Season Gravel X-Wide Wheelset#
<h1>Rims</h1><i>A strong and lightweight 6066-T6 heat-treated 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 extra wide rim at 29mm (25mm internal) which creates a great tire profile with wider 35mm+ tires, 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 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.</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>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. This is especially important for a 4 Season bike you use regularly in harsh conditions. As a result, the freehub features our H_CERAMIK coating to provide excellent durability against cassette sprocket damage often seen on standard alloy freehub bodies.</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>Rim Bed</h1><i>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. This helps 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.</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>Weight</h1><i>The consequence of the fanatic attention to detail is incredible durability and a resulting low 1698g gram wheelset weight. Acceleration and climbing are massively improved over many of the stock wheels supplied on road/gravel/CX disc brake bikes.</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>

HUNT 4 Season Gravel X-Wide Wheelset

19 Deep | 29 Wide | 25 Wide Int | 1698g

Our ever-popular 4 Season Gravel Disc receives the XW treatment. 700c, 25mm rim bed optimised for 35c+ tires, for properly burly off-road hammering.

19 DEEP | 29 WIDE EXT | 25 WIDE INT | 1698G

The Purpose

The 4 Season Gravel Disc has long been a staple in our range. As a more burly version of the 4 Season Disc (owing a wider rim) it was a great option for those wanting to hit the path less travelled. Fast-forward a couple of years, and the demands of gravel riding have taken on a whole new dimension, with riders seeking trails and routes you'd formerly only consider a mountain bike for. Enter the X-Wide, the wheelset designed to shine where the boundaries are blurred...

We’ve invested in high-specification rims, hubs and spokes, so you don’t pay a weight penalty for that extra off-road capability. The 25mm (internal) rim is ideal for 40-50mm+ tires, but will work well from 35mm+ (check compatibility with tire manufacturer), so you can explore, go bike-packing, rip any trails or CX courses you fancy, and do it all with confidence.

If you're not sure which of our disc-brake 4 Season wheels are for you, then check our range explainer HERE.
