hi

anyone got this combo working?

The Hunt gravel wheel set look like good value to me.

Would be looking to run them on a mk 1cotic  escapade with tubeless tcs 40c nano's. trp spyre brake callipers.

I have the 40c Nano on some alpkit wheels at the mo and the clearance is good. I think the internal width of the hunts is 2mm or so wider. will this be a problem clearance wise on my escapade?

the appkit wheels are fine but I'm having a clearance issue with my trp spyre brakes and will likely sell the alpkit wheels and buy some upgraded wheels as I'm loving the bike so much.

I'm running nanos on my escapade on stans arch ex rims (which are a bit wider than the hunts I think). I've had no clearance issues (last gen escapade without the carbon fork)

Cheers for that mrsi. Hunt also do a good return if you’re not happy deal. They just look like a good wheelset for the price. Any idea?

I've used a nano in an original roadrat (so ancient) on i19 rims. Perfectly fnctional clearance. I wouldn't say it's got loads of room but it's certainly not tight.

Not entirely sure how much that helps but I would expect the escapade to have more room than that!

I have some hunt 4season discs in 700c flavour. Off the top of my head I don't know the rim width though.

What I will say is that I tried to get some 40mm nano TCS on them and really struggled. I was trying to fit them with tubes and in the end just gave up and sold the tires on. Might not be a problem without tube but I didn't want to go down that route.

Hunt offer Nanos on the wheels so I presume they will fit
