Good hooked rim gravel wheels?
Does this even exist? Wanting a hooked rim wheelset to use with tubes; no sealant. Shimano freehub, might want to run tire size down to 28mm, but surely 32mm.
Looking at Campy Levante and Shamal Carbon wheels. The Levante is not recommended for anything below 38mm tires, but who knows. Shamal could be an option. As could Boras/WTO wheels, maybe. Looked at a Mavic wheelset, but it was hookless. Same for DT. Thanks for any insight. |

Roval are also hooked. I’m pretty happy my Terra clxs but they might be overkill for what you are looking for.

The Levante width recommendation is stupid. You can run 30 mm tires. No problem with a 25 mm inner rim.
I might also recommend checking out the Specialized Roval Terra and Bontrager Aeolus 37v.

Check out Roval, as others have already mentioned. HED also offer several gravel wheelsets with hooked rims. Aluminum DT Swiss gravel wheels (like the GR 1600 Spline) should also have hooked rims.

What internal width do you have your heart set on? What in your mind defines a wheel as "gravel"?
All of Shimano's wheels are hooked. Same with HED. I pretty much stick to those two brands. |

All DT's aluminium wheelsets are hooked...
Not sure if you're specifically wanting carbon? |

Bontrager's are hooked. Light Bicycle have a hooked rim if you want something less expensive. Stan's No Tubes has a mini hook that has worked well for me with tubed tires.

I ride astral wanderlust wheels on my gravel bike... One of very few hooked gravel wheels fully made in USA too.

Light Bicycle WR series
I've have a set of Light Bicycle hooked carbon rims, DT Swiss 350 hubs and Pillar steel spokes built wheels. Rim bed is solid so no tape required. (They do offer drilled rim bed version but really how often does one change spokes to worry about the extra effort of the spoke nipple?)
Easiest tubeless set up, I've experienced. Recommend highly |
