For the ‘Black Friday’ season (now until early December basically), Privateer x Hunt Wheels offering a Proven carbon wheel upgrade on all complete Privateer Gen 2 141 and 161 bikes.
Anyone who orders a complete 141 or 161 will receive the latest HUNT Proven Carbon Enduro H_Core wheels as a totally free upgrade.
The idea behind the offer is to give customers a set of wheels with a lifetime crash replacement policy that will complement the “rugged and bombproof nature” of this year’s Gen 2 release range of mountain bikes.
We’ve had a browse around and can’t find another sub-£4,000 mountain bike with a comparable level of spec – plus carbon wheels with lifetime crash replacement. It’s a pretty compelling offer.
Hunt Proven Carbon Enduro wheels
The H_Core wheel is a completely new-for-2025 wheelset with a new rim design and new H_Core technology plus an updated hub.
- New H_Core technology with incredible impact resistance
- ‘Tuned’ front and rear wheel carbon layups (front for tracking and compliance, rear for strength)
- Lifetime Crash Replacement policy
- Upgrade value of £1,149.00
What is H_Core technology? “H_Core is made up of a pair of pre-cured, pultruded, carbon-dense, reinforced rings, which are added to our carbon moulds prior to layup. The H_Core rings are added to increase strength in the join between the rim bed and sidewall, and to ensure consistent carbon compaction and resin flow in this high-stress area.
“H_Core guarantees improved and more consistent compaction during the manufacturing process at the rim bed/sidewall junction; poor compaction in this area causes porosity to be present, producing weaker spots (stress raisers) to be present.”

Designed by Privateer, for privateers
Privateer: “At Privateer we have a really simple but extremely important moto ‘if you’re fixing your bike, you’re not riding your bike!’ and of course, we want you to be out riding come rain or shine. We’ve built the latest range of Privateer Bikes, each featuring massive, fully weather-sealed, 42mm Enduro Max full complement bearings, easy-to-service and maintain external cable and hose routing and a handy tool/accessory mount. We’ve even made all the hardware on the Privateer 141 and Privateer 161 single-sided, meaning you only need a couple of hand tools to work on your ride.”
