Hunt launches 4AM Limitless climbing wheelset

Hunt has added a new lightweight road wheelset to its Limitless range, called 4AM. The wheels use different rim profiles – the front is 49.5 mm deep and 34.2 mm wide, while the rear is shallower and narrower at 47 mm and 30 mm.

Despite the main selling point being the low weight, Hunt claims its wind tunnel testing showed the carbon-spoke version of the wheels was 1.4 watts faster than the Enve 4.5 Pro at 45km/h and with 30 mm wide tyres, while being 139 grams lighter.

The carbon-spoke 4AM Limitless Ti_UD weighs a claimed 1,156 g and prices start at £1,959/€2,299/US$2,559/AU$3,759 with stainless steel bearings, and go up to £2,449/€2,859/US$3,159/AU$4,709 for the CeramicSpeed bearing-equipped model.

Parallel to the launch of the 4AM set, Hunt has also added a steel-spoked option of the 58/55 mm deep 5AM wheelset to the broader range. These weigh in at 1,339 g (compared to the 1,212 g of the carbon-spoked version) and are priced at £1,659/€1,959/US$2,359. All the wheels are available to pre-order now, shipping from late May or June.
