HUNT 36 UD CARBON SPOKE WHEELSET

UD CARBON SPOKES, CERAMICSPEED BEARINGS, FILAMENT WOUND RIMS & RESPONSIVENESS THAT MAKES OUT-OF-THE-SADDLE RIDING EFFORTLESS (ALMOST)

36 DEEP | 26 WIDE EXT | 19 WIDE INT | 1295G | CERAMICSPEED ( EZO OPTION AVAILABLE)

THE PURPOSE

With up to a 30.16% reduction in lateral flex over equivalent steel spoked wheelsets (please click here for full testing methodology and results), the 36 UD Carbon Spoke wheels have been engineered to provide you a significant increase in stiffness as well an impressively low sub 1300g weight. Using an innovative construction method, the 36 UD Carbon Spoke wheelset offers carbon spokes that are held purely mechanically, with no bonding required. We call this TaperLock, and it allows for carbon spokes that can be trued and maintained just like a normal steel spoke.


Plus the TaperLock UD Carbon spokes are incredibly strong achieving over 450kgf (kilograms force per spoke) maximum tensile strength, this compares to leading steel spokes wich only reach 300 kgf. The innovative filament wound rims feature spoke area reinforcement, which creates strength where you need it and saves you vital grams everywhere else.

TaperLock UD Carbon Spoke Technology


Most existing carbon-spoked wheels use adhesive bonding or resin to attach the spokes (essentially making them integral to the structure of the rim - not ideal for serviceability). However, the TaperLock construction method has enabled us to develop wheels with carbon spokes that are as usable as steel ones. At the hub end of the of the spoke an aluminium mandrel is placed around the spoke during the curing process, and is pulled tight against the (tapered) head of the spoke. The rim end of the spoke is fitted in the same way with a threaded steel mandrel, and can be trued using a spoke key on a nut from within the rim bed (accessible through the internal spoke holes). The steel mandrel has a standard square outer shape allowing the spoke to be held straight whilst any adjustments are made to the internal nipple.



The HUNT SPRINT hubs feature everything you need for THE KICK.



The leaders in low friction bearings CeramicSpeed have again partnered with us on the hubs for the 50 UD Carbon Spoke Wheels so you know your rolling resistance is at its lowest. A standard EZO bearing option is also available. The freehub body on the HUNT SPRINT hub features 48 teeth on the ratchet ring, and treble-tooth pawls, providing an incredible 7.5° engagement. Perfect for when the hammer goes down and you need an instant response. Stiffness = speed... so we specced large 15mm diameter hub axles for sprinting and out-of-saddle efforts.
