I have read many positive things about Hunt wheels and was tempted by their aero disc wheels but have seen the Zipp 302s get good reviews too.  Zipps are about £100 more but might be easier to resell on eBay than the Hunts.

Any wheel experts out there who have tried either wheelsets or ideally both?

Related: does anyone know where Hunt get their aluminium rims? I don’t trust carbon and would like to build myself another set with better hubs and a deeper section.

The Hunts are cheaper, over 150g lighter despite being 5mm deeper, and most importantly can be setup tubeless. In my experience going tubeless is a massive improvement in speed, grip and reliability.

I’d choose the Hunts for sure.
