<h1>Rims</h1><i>The TrailWide rim includes details which are high on the durability factor to make sure you finish every ride with a big grin. The 6069-T6 (+69% tensile strength vs 6061-T6) alloy rim sticks with the wider-is-better mantra. Designed for 2.3"-2.5" tyres, the wide 30mm (internal) rim provides support to the tyre during hard cornering, landing in a root strewn shoot or when your throttling down a high-speed section and folding a tyre is the last thing you need to happen!</i>

<h1>Weight</h1><i>Mountain bikers aren't concerned about weight, right? Nope! Whether you're doing a back-country epic or pedalling between stages, we have paid attention to weight to suit the type of riding they will be subjected too. For example, using the highest quality Pillar triple butted spokes with PSR (Pillar Spoke Re-enforcement) has allowed us to not only create a stronger wheel with a higher spoke count, but one which does not add a weight penalty.</i>

<h1>Nipples</h1><i>We have chosen top of the line, triple butted Pillar Spokes with increased reinforcement at the spoke head. Not only are these spokes extremely lightweight, they are also able to provide a greater degree of elasticity when put under increased stress. The Pillar Spoke Reinforcement (PSR) puts more material at the spoke head, just before the J-Bend to prevent failure in this stress area.</i>

<h1>Rear Hub</h1><i>We create wheels to match the needs of riders who want the most from their wheels. The TrailWide hubs have been chosen to increase stiffness, bearing durability and overall strength of your wheelset. On the rear, the RapidEngage MTB hubs with a superfast 3 degree engagement, means you will be able to put the power down straight out of the corners.</i>

<h1>Front Hub</h1><i>Suited to match the needs of the modern trail bike rider. Featuring durable bearings and 7075-T6 series alloy axles to increase stiffness. These hubs have been selected based on their ability to perform on the most aggressive trails. </i>

<h1>Freehub Body</h1><i>Choose between SRAM/Shimano 8/9/10/11sp, Shimano Microspline or SRAM XD to be fitted to your TrailWide Wheels. Each freehub features six individual MultiPawls to ensure strong engagement, even in the grimmest conditions.</i>

<h1>Made for where you ride</h1><i>From the local trails, to a remote piece of trail highup in a remote mountain range; we wanted to create a series of wheelsets tailored for your Trail riding.</i>

HUNT Trail Wide MTB 29 Wheelset

The all-new Trail Wide is your go-to wheelset no matter the conditions. Optimized to still take the A-lines on the descents and not hold you back on the climbs.

27.5/29/Mullet | 30mm Wide Int. | 1761/1831G

The Purpose

Starting with what we learnt around profile optimisation from the burlier Enduro Wide V2 project, we set out to improve upon its lighter sibling, not an easy task with an Editor’s Choice-winning wheelset.

Combining the all-new 30mm internal rim profile, with new hubs and spoke configurations, results in a wheel that keeps the outward appearance of it's predecessor yet provide 20% more impact resistance.

Designed as the answer to your trail centre weekends, back country epics or days spent smashing through your local woods - a wheelset that can do it all and leave you with a big grin.

The Purpose

After almost three years of unwavering service on the toughest trails, with numerous awards and recognitions along the way, the restless design team at HUNT saw an opportunity to update the Trail Wide wheelset to meet the evolving demands of today’s riders.

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 35% 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.

Schwalbe Hans Dampf Snake Skin Tubeless Tires

Schwalbe Hans Dampf 2.35" Snake Skin Soft Front / Rear

The Hans Dampf is one of the most balanced tires out there. Providing superior control on rough terrain as well as amazing grip in flowy singletrack, the Hans Dampf is the best kind of all-rounder. The high-volume casing offers maximum braking traction and cornering grip for when the trail becomes aggressive. But when gravity stops working its magic, the Hans Dampf will not leave you behind. The continuous tread pattern is closely spaced meaning that this tire tracks well and has a lower rolling resistance over more aggressive options.

Choose this tire combo for your Trail Wide wheels if you want an all-round option for your aggressive XC or trail bike. We love this tire when the trails are a little dryer and demand a faster rolling option.

Reviews

Bike Magazine and Website Experts' Views

	10/10 REVIEW "Lighter than most of the carbon wheels on test, the Trail Wides feel fast on the trail, and change direction rapidly. They also spin well with smooth, quality bearings and accelerate crisply under power. The rear wheel's super-fast engagement reacts as soon as you turn on the power at the crank, which is a real advantage for technical, stop-start climbing as well." See full review in the images above.
	4.5/5 REVIEW "These wheels area a brilliant balance of smooth speed, accuracy and userful toughness, outriding many carbon competitors at a price that's a steal." See full review in the images above.
	"Hit the sweet spot of performance and price". "Hunt Trail Wide is a very good wheelset that is strong, light and durable. They’re ideal for hitting up trail centers every weekend, backcountry adventures into the unknown, or a week of pure descending in the mountains or bike park"
	Is The Hunt Trail Wide The Best Wheelset You Can Buy Under £400? "With the Trail Wide being upgraded to a tougher alloy, and with only a slight increase in weight I believe that they are going to prove to be one of the best sub £400 wheelsets on the market for some time to come. They look classy, the quality is spot on and they keep rolling even when they’ve been battered."
	First Look "Hunt's new mountain bike wheelsets look like a bit of a bargain."
	First Look "A family of three new premium alloy off-road wheels – the EnduroWide, TrailWide & XCWide – ready to hit every kind of trail that awaits…"
	First Look "Hunt is well established when it comes to producing high quality, high value road and gravel wheelsets, but before now hasn't produced a wheelset for mountain biking."
