The opportunity to open up your riding comes from bikes which have geometry designed to ride excellently with both 700c or 27.5" (650b) wheels. This combination works thanks to the extra volume in a 2" x 27.5” tyre, providing an almost identical external tyre diameter to a normal road sized 700c wheel with a 33mm tyre, leaving the bike geo unchanged. What was needed was a bike that could accommodate the extra tyre width, while still running road groupsets, geo and components. These bikes are increasing in popularity and availability continuously!
We’ve designed a specific new rim profile for our new Gravel/Adventure wheels. Key features of this rim that make it great for the focused purpose of drop-bar adventure/gravel road riding are:
Wider 33mm external/26mm internal rim provides excellent ride handling and support for wider tyres, and they work perfectly with (up to) 2.2” MTB tyres.
The 26mm rim delivers excellent strength needed for the lower spoke counts and higher gear torques from road groupsets when compared to MTB setups.
Asymmetric rim accommodates the front disc and rear cassette hub offsets, and helps build an even stronger and more durable wheelset owing to balanced spoke tensions.
Other key features that make the AdventureSport wheels ideal for Dual 27.5"/700c bikes:
Fully adaptable axles, set up ready for your bike, out of the box.
Hard wearing laser etched graphics, which also save extra grams.
Hunt 4Season Disc hubs with excellent bearing coverage and protection for long running life.
SRAM XD compatible. 'Dual 27.5/700c' bikes are ideal for 1x single front ring groupsets.
Supplied with thru axle adaptors included as pretty much all 'Dual 27.5/700c' bikes run thru axles only. Read Less
Warranty, HUNT Rolling Road Tests & 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 cobbled-rolling-road 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 95Kgs then an experienced bike mechanic should check the wheel regularly and it is advisable to use tyres at max 65psi (observe tyre manufacturer's max pressure as this may be lower) as this will reduce the fatigue on the wheelset. 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.
