Mavic Crossmax Pro XL 27.5 MTB Wheelset. The Mavic Crossmax Pro XL 27.5 MTB Wheelset is the adventurers' choice, the ultimate versatility wheelset that has been designed to withstand the rigours of Enduro and make the most of all day rides Superb Climbing, Accelerating and Handling. The 23mm rim 27mm external brings great comfort and support when the trails get technical. The rim is also paired back, leaving just the right amount of material in high constraint areas. And even more weight is saved thanks to machining between the spokes Inter Spoke Milling. This lighter weight rim helps climbing, accelerating and handling Strength and Stiffness. The rim has also been designed to add strength to the sidewalls, giving more resistance to impacts, which can't always be avoided when riding technical sections at speed. Both the front and rear wheels are built with 24 Mavic bladed Zicral spokes, which give plenty of strength and stiffness. The front wheel has crossed spokes to offer superior comfort and shock absorption vertical compliance, while the rear wheel is laced using the Mavic Isopulse principle to help transfer power to the ground. Radial spokes on the drive side give more responsiveness and enable us to widen the spoke flanges for increased lateral stiffness. When combined with the high performing and durable hubs, you have a wheelset that can withstand anything Features Rims MaterialMaxtal Joint SUP DrillingFore Weight Reduction ISM Internal Width 23mm Valve hole diameter6 5mm TyreClincher UST Tubeless, TubetypeSpokes MaterialZicral ShapeStraight pull, round Count24 front and rear LacingFront Crossed; Rear IsopulseHubs Front & Rear Hub BodyAluminium Axle materialAluminium Sealed cartridge bearings FreewheelITS 4 AlloyWeight Pair1 71kg Front810g Rear895gTechnologies ITS 4 Instant Energy Transmission Using 4 pawls working 2 by 2, Instant Transfer System 4 provides a more dynamic ride, thanks to a very fast engagement.

MAXTAL Exclusive to Mavic, this specific aluminium alloy offers a higher strength to weight ratio than conventional 6106 alloy. SUP Soud Usin Process After bending, the rim joint is arc welded. The welded seam is then milled for a smooth finish. ISM Inter Spoke Milling An exclusive Mavic patented concept, ISM involves the machining of the lower bridge of the rim between each spoke hole to create a light and rigid rim without reducing the durability or stiffness. ISOPULSE The spokes are laced radially on the drive side and crossed 2 on the non drive side to maximise drive side dish, thus providing a better spoke tension balance between left and right flanges. FORE Instead of being drilled, the lower rim bridge is pushed up on the inside, then threaded to enable the spoke nipples to be directly screwed in, leaving the upper rim bridge intact. ZICRAL A specific aluminium alloy that provides spokes with a higher stiffness to weight ratio while being stronger. UST Tubeless Ready The UST concept improves traction, control and comfort while reducing inertia and flats. The Tubeless Ready construction results in a lighter tyre for improved performance.
