Key benefits
Smooth, efficient ride quality for everyday road riding.
Straight-pull spokes are stronger than J-bend options.
Engineered durability so you can ride more miles without service.
Pinned joint and reinforced drilling rim design.
Consistent and stable spoke lacing.
Features include straight-pull spokes for added strength and stiffness, and lightweight rims for a lively ride quality. The rims are now wider, which allows for increased air volume and a better fit for larger diameter tires (up to 32mm).
The hubs are incredibly tough, delivering high mileage and long-lasting dependability. And the QRM bearings are the smoothest in the category. It all adds up to a wheelset that delivers the high-quality ride that Mavic is known for.
