Enduro Wide: Extra thick sidewalls and high impact strength, plus 36 triple butted spokes in the rear wheel
27.5/29" | 33 Wide Int | 1994/2064g
The Purpose
This is our all out, hardest hitting wheelset for your Enduro rig. Designed to take a beating on the most unforgiving trails, the EnduroWide takes it all in its stride…
Not satisfied with any of the options available, we went to the drawing board to design a rim which exceeds the demands of modern Enduro riding. Close to two years of real-world testing gained us insight into how these wheels will be used under riding, racing and car park jibbing. Whether you're riding tracks which have either one or two black diamonds marked at the trail head or Spend your weekends driving to the next mountain range for the Enduro series you're chasing, the EnduroWide has your back.

Warranty, Support and 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 rolling-drum fatigue tests for rider weight limits, please see here for more details. 120kgs is the upper recommended rider weight limit for these wheels. Please include the weight of any luggage in your total rider weight when choosing the correct wheels. If a rider is over 110Kgs then an experienced bike mechanic should check the wheel regularly and it is advisable to use tires at max 40psi as this will reduce the fatigue on the wheelset.
Crash replacement 40% off plus All HUNT wheels models have been designed to meet the needs of the type of riding they are intended for. 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.
Tubeless Tire Fitting Options
These are only some of the options you can have fitted on your wheels. To see the full range, click here
Schwalbe Magic Mary 2.35" Snake Skin Super Soft Front / Schwalbe Hans Dampf 2.35" Snake Skin Super Soft RearThere is not very much to say about the Schwalbe Magic Mary. It is one of our favourite tires for the most aggressive riding out there. Striking a great balance between speed and grip it is a great option for almost any track out there. The high-volume casing offers maximum braking traction and cornering grip, even in extremely muddy train thanks to the strong shoulder studs and aggressive, open tread design. Ride in dryer conditions? We find that the Magic Mary is perfect for finding traction where other options are simply left behind. |

Maxxis Minion DHF 2.5" WT EXO Front / Maxxis High Roller II 2.5" WT EXO RearThe Minion DHF is an all-round favorite tire for aggressive riding. We have chosen to spec this tire for your most aggressive riding needs – be it in the bike park or slamming through your local rut track. A favorite amongst the most aggressive riders, the DHF tacks it all in its stride. The relatively continuous, ramped centre knobs for low-rolling resistance mean this is a fast tire going up and down the hill. The channel cut knobs give straight-line control and precise cornering when tipping it in. The WT casing has been specifically designed for the new breed of wide rims featured in the Hunt line up.If you have been riding a trail/enduro bike chances are your go to tire is the Maxxis High Roller II. An iconic tire chosen by riders due to its ability to perform in most conditions, it is one to reach for when you’re wanting a tire you know will won’t having you second guessing yourself. The open and aggressive tread design gives the High Roller II excellent soil penetration and mud clearing ability. The High Roller II provides a solid consistent feeling when transitioning from the intermediate to the outmost knobs when cornering. The centre knobs provide great traction when braking and giving oodles of traction when the trails demand it. Choose this tire to be matched with your EnduroWide wheels for loose/loose-over-hard-pack conditions to wet conditions where an intermediate/wet tire will be overkill. |

"Who needs carbon when the HUNT Enduro Wide is as good as this""I’m looking at treating myself to a new bike later this year, and these Hunt Enduro Wides are at the top of my shopping list for me to spend my own hard earned cash on. Aside from a rogue impact that I’m willing to shoulder all responsibility for, they’ve been bomb proof throughout the last six months, soaking up all the north Lakes can throw at them." |

"Hunt Endurowides are a great option for those looking for a good wheelset on a budget.""Pulling the rear hub apart after five months of abuse without being serviced, the internals were surprisingly clean and still covered in a thin layer of grease, which is great praise for the sealing qualities of the freehub. Clearly, abuse in the sloppy UK winters was considered when Hunt were designing these hubs" |

Enduro Wide 27.5" Review"Hunt bike wheels claim that these are the toughest wheels in their line up, and I really did try to put that statement to the test on the rocks and wood of Whistler. All this science made sure that when I rode Top of the World and pin-balled from large rock to large rock, my wheel stayed perfectly true and there wasn’t a ding in sight." |
