"It was aero, modernly wide (with a 25 mm internal width), and had enough zing to hit the forest singletrack without a back injury. So why change them? Well, they were slightly deep (42mm), but the real push was tire optimization. The 42 Limitless were optimized for tires ranging from 38 to 42 mm, and if you follow the gravel world, the arms race of fitting larger (45-55mm) tires without lightbulbing on the rim is rapidly evolving."
"The Hunt 40 Limitless Gravel Aero rim width provides just enough room for modern gravel rubber without compromising sidewall support. It's wide but not absurd, enhancing the ride rather than taking away from it. For example, in crosswinds, the wheels feel planted, not twitchy, or floppy. On the practical side, the outer rim wall has a slight flare, which adds impact resistance, and the squared-off bead platform helps resist pinch flats."
The Hunt 40 Limitless Gravel Aero wheels widen rim internal dimensions to 27 mm front and 26 mm rear, using a hookless rim design and revamped hub to suit modern gravel tires. Rim shapes are tuned for 40–45 mm rubber while remaining compatible with up to 50 mm, improving sidewall support and crosswind stability. The outer rim wall flare increases impact resistance and the squared-off bead platform reduces pinch flats. The set aims to be a do-it-all gravel wheel that balances aero performance, ride quality, responsiveness, and practical durability.
