I recently discovered the spoke nipples on my Hunt wheels were crumbling away, the wheels are just under 3 years old, mainly dry use and cleaned after a dirty ride. When I contacted Hunt in regards to this they were very good in sorting the issue out under the 3 year warranty and offered me the choice of brass (10g heavier) or alloy nipples as a replacement
I cant understand why all wheels are not fitted with brass nipples
must say the customer service with Hunt was very good not so sure about the alloy nipples though
