• I need a new rim for a rear wheel. Hunt Race Aero Wide, 24 hole, 31mm deep, 24mm wide

    I'd like to get a move on with it, I'm waiting to hear from Hunt about a warranty replacement, but they don't have stock for a direct replacement at the moment anyway.

    They charge £79 delivered for the rim, so if I end up having to pay for it, should I go ahead and get something else? I don't want to pay more than that, what's my best bet?

    Edit: apparently their rim is a Kinlin xr31t, so that's my answer I suppose

  • The Hunt rim is a Kinlin XR31T. Direct replacement from Spa Cycles here. I don't believe Hunt use the offset rim (the XR31T OC). Using the offset rear rim would result in a stronger wheel, but you might need new spokes.

  • what's my best bet?

    As always in this thread, the answer is Kinlin XR31[R]T. @cycleclinic seems to be out at the moment, but Spa Cycles seem to have both symmetric and offset in stock in 24H at £50 a go.
