Hunt Sub50 Limitless Aero Disc highway wheels get quicker AND lighter

I’m simply going to supply a fast PR e-mail quote as a result of I respect its brevity & effectivity:

“TL;DR: Entrance & rear particular hookless rim profiles (34mm broad exterior entrance/30mm broad exterior rear), UD carbon spokes, and all-new ratchet hub design create an unmatched system weighing simply 1380 grams per pair.”

Hunt’s first foray into Limitless aerodynamic optimization resulted within the “world’s quickest” Hunt 48 Limitless Aero Disc wheels that set a Paris-Roubaix pavé KOM, earlier than being raced on the World Tour and even being ridden to a Giro stage win in 2012 by Victor Campenaerts. They have been the first-ever highway wheels to be wider than 30mm exterior to learn from fashionable broad tire aerodynamics. They teed up deeper 60 Limitless highway and 42 Limitless Gravel wheels. And so they featured a novel patented-filler development technique that preserve weight in verify.

However apparently the professionals & quickest riders wished even lighter weight with their broad tire aerodynamics.

What’s new?

And that’s what they acquired because of all-new entrance & rear rim shapes, each with 23mm inner hookless tubeless beads. The blunt-nosed 34.2mm broad exterior rim up entrance results in smoother airflow by way of the cleaner air the rider enters. And the extra v-shaped 30mm exterior rim out again saves weight whereas slicing by way of the turbulent air coming off the bike and rider’s legs.
