Description
Aero, super wide and incredibly lightweight.

Look no further for a do-it-all carbon disc-brake wheelset than the 30 Carbon Aero Disc. Ultimate climbing performance, and incredibly capable on rolling terrain. The super-wide 27mm rim provides superior aerodynamic performance. The U-profile serves up great handling and reduces drag across multiple wind yaw-angles. The extra-wide 19mm internal rim bed opens out your tyre profile providing exceptional vibration reduction, grip and low rolling-resistance. Stretch the gaps and burn the legs of your riding compatriots.

The straight pull hubs and bladed spokes reduce weight, add strength and respond instantly to your accelerations. The freehub body on the HUNT Sprint hub features 48 teeth on the ratchet ring, and treble-tooth pawls, providing incredible 7.5 degree engagement. Perfect for when the hammer goes down and you need an instant response.

Hunt 30 Carbon Aero Disc wheelset review, Cycling Tips (see here for the full review):
"Hunt's pricing for the 30Carbon Aero Disc wheelset is too high to ever describe it as a bargain, but consider this: in terms of performance, I'd put in the same category as Zipp's disc-equipped Firecrest 202 clinchers. Both wheelsets offer the same kind of versatility and class, yet Hunt bests Zipp on the basis of weight, price, and tubeless compatibility.

Looking at the rest of the market, it's hard to find a road disc wheelset that can compete with Hunt's 30Carbon Aero Disc wheelset on every front. As a result, it really appears that Hunt has outpaced the market (at least for now) and that this is one upgrade that road disc bike owners cannot afford to overlook."
