Mavic Ksyrium SL wheels set the standard in road performance with their unique features—they're light, easy to handle and powerful.

  • Asymmetrical rear rim increases stiffness and durability
  • Rear hub's Isopulse™ lacing and mounting keep spokes at a constant tension for added stability and efficient energy transmission
  • Removable sealed cartridge bearings are easily maintained; they're micro adjustable for matching various riding conditions
  • Lightweight front carbon hub enhances acceleration
  • Low 22mm front rim profile enhances responsiveness and handling
  • A Mavic exclusive, Maxtal aluminum is 30% stronger than 6061 aluminum, resulting in lighter, livelier rims
  • Inter Spoke Milling (ISM) is the magic equation that reduces inertia and frees extra power for climbing
  • Milled braking surfaces improve braking friction and eliminate shuddering
  • Zicral aluminum produces a very lightweight, super-strong spoke
  • Rim joints are welded and milled to eliminate shuddering during braking and provide superior wheel balance
  • Spoke lacing: radial front, Isopulse™ rear
  • Compatible with clincher tires and Shimano cassettes

Imported.

    Comments about Mavic Ksyrium SL Wheelset:

    What can I say except a great wheel set, I average 210 K per week [about 24,000 miles], over almost 4 years, two crashes one breaking several spokes they required only one truing [outside the crashes], 6 sets of tyres [I use very expensive ones because of the mileage] no complaints, I weight 13.5 stone and ride mainly on good pavement, spend the money and keep some spare spokes plus the special spoke wrench as no one has them in your kit when travelling. Cheers
