A wheel not just designed to endure the worst two seasons, but to deliver performance reliably all year round.

The wheels' weight is low enough that they feel fast and responsive... ...they're a bargain upgrade. Pros: - Very robust, tight build - Now a little wider - Compatible with multiple hub standards and tubeless ready - Lightweight - Good value Cons: - None Score: 10/10  Hunt Mason X Hunt 4 Season Disc wheelset review, road.cc, September 2019 (see here for full review): "I just can't fault version two of the 4 Season Discs - on price, weight, setup, performance, axle compatibility or included accessories. Hunt has evolved what was already a highly regarded budget-friendly upgrade wheelset into a product that, for the weight and price, is seriously competitive - then when you factor in the future-proof hub system, they stand alone for life-long value. Assuming no mishaps, and with all parts readily available, these will be the last wheels you'll need to buy for general road and gravel/byway riding for quite some time." Pros: Future-proof axle system, rim width, rotor adapters included, parts availability, subtle branding Cons: None I can think of Verdict An excellent choice to upgrade OEM wheels, or to swap between bikes with different axle/drivetrain setups now or in future  Hunt 4 Season Disc wheelset review, Cycling Plus magazine, May 2020: "These 1588g aluminium wheels have tubeless-ready 26mm deep, 24mm-wide rims with a 19mm internal width that is well-suited to road tyres from 25c up to 45c gravel tyres. The four-pawl freehub might not engage quite as smoothly as DT's 240s but it is quick with a 10-degree engagement and is hardwearing too, thanks to a tough ceramic coating. Like all Hunt wheels you get plenty of extras included in the price." Hunt 4 Season Disc wheelset review, Cycling Plus magazine, October 2021: "Their low weight of just 1585g a pair, and their wide 20mm internal rim width, mean this UK-designed collaboration between Hunt Wheels and Mason Bikes is ready for anything, suiting tyres from 25mm up to more than 40mm. The downside is they're so popular you may have to wait for your order." |
