Hmmmm, good to know and thanks for replying... I've not heard good things about their hubs either through other sources, so they might be worth swerving!

Hunt warranty is a joke because they said there had been an 'impact' and offered me a minor discount on a whole new wheel because they didn't have any rims.
I can't imagine any wheel failing without an 'impact', which is apparently only what the warranty covers. Maybe spontaneously exploding while in the shed?I'm not arguing one way or the other about the quality of Hunt wheels or their customer service or whether it did suffer an impact etc, but warranties don't cover post-purchase damage.
A warranty covers defects in materials, manufacturing, assembly etc, ie they "warrant" that what you buy is in good condition when sold.

My personal experience... don't get hunt.
I have some carbon 650b jobs. Rim cracked and I didn't even realise, no crash or anything, I thought they just went out of true and asked my lbs to true them.

The freehub is insanely loud, and the communication is very very slow too. Should have gone light bicycle but the promise of a better warranty swayed it.
Maybe I just got unlucky. My lbs said he's seen lots of hunt wheels with issues too.
