Hunt Wheels introduced three new Aerodynamicist carbon wheelsets, weighing from 1,175g and designed with different front and rear rim profiles. These wheelsets feature a 22mm internal rim width and are aimed at enhancing aerodynamics for 28-30mm tyres while remaining compatible with wider sizes. A significant 47,000 hours of CFD work was dedicated to their design over three years, focusing on crosswind stability and efficiency. The various models, optimized through wind tunnel testing, promise superior performance in real-world conditions compared to competitor options.
Hunt claims that its new wheelsets are faster than competing options, particularly when fitted with 28mm Schwalbe Pro One tyres, achieving significant aerodynamic efficiency.
The brand focused on minimizing weight while offering wider, deeper rim profiles, prioritizing crosswind stability and low weight in its new aerodynamicist wheelsets.
47,000 hours of computational fluid dynamics were invested in the development of the new wheels to optimize airflow at varying yaw angles, ensuring efficiency.
Hunt's choice of differential profiles for distinct rim depths was confirmed through extensive modeling, ensuring that aerodynamic efficiency is maximized depending on airflow conditions.
