CD - Couche Dure
A chimical anodization process that forms a micro-hardness on the surface of the rim
Ceramic 2
By using a plasma beam torch spreading titanium and aluminum oxide powders on the sidewalls of the rim we create a thermal shield that is 30 times harder than aluminum.
Maxtal
Exclusive alloy developed specifically for Mavic by Pechiney Alcan Group, for rim manufacturing and optimizing alloy characteristics vs. that specific use.
SUP - Soudé Usiné Process
After bending, the rim joint is arc welded. The welded seam is then milled for a smooth finish.
UB Control - Usiné Brut Control
The sidewalls of the rim are milled with a diamond point on a digitally controlled machine after assembly and anodization,
