Mavic Crossmax SL Wheelset
Product Description- The Crossmax SL, an even lighter version, is designed for intensive use in Cross Country racing, for racers who refuse to accept compromise. Using the ISM technology developed on the road, the profile of the rim has been made considerably more lightweight. This reduction in weight does not compromise its stiffness, which remains as good as on the previous versions. Finally, these wheels always offer the possibility of riding tubeless, for even better performance, and reducing the risk of flats from a pinched tube.

from Norway Date Reviewed: May 6, 2010 Strengths: Light, fast, stiff, easy to set up tubeless with normal tyres. Weaknesses: After 2 years use the rear axel that support the freehub boss wore out. It drags the cassette around when not pedaling. Have tried to have it machined and changed the boss, but still it starts dragging the cassette after a few rides. Not good for the price tag on these. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Sørmarka Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $900.00 Purchased At: Chainreactioncycles Similar Products Used: Shimano XTR and Ritchey Bike Setup: GT Zaskar carbon, full XTR, 2010 SID team forks, Ritchey components

from San Diego,Ca Date Reviewed: May 9, 2009 Strengths: The SLs are the lightest XC rims with the best strength around for lightweight riders. If you are a XC or trail rider you cant go wrong with these. But beware if you are over 180lbs they may be weak if you jump or downhill with them. Great for uphill climbs, and strong while pedaling hard. Weaknesses: Weakness for heavy riders Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Vail Lake Duration Product Used: 1 Year Price Paid: $700.00 Purchased At: LBS Similar Products Used: Mavics Crosmax SLR, Mavics 823 and all mavics older products Bike Setup: Specialized Carbon Epic, and Stumpjumper.All XTR and Mavic with Kenda Dred Treds tires.
