from Chicago IL USA Date Reviewed: April 15, 2004 Strengths: Light. Weaknesses: These are for tubeless tires. The rear wheel allowed very little air leakage, allowing for the rear tire to stay properly pressurized for around 4-5 weeks. The front wheel allowed for a LOT of air leakage, where after a few hours of moderate riding intensity, the pressure would drop anywhere from 5-10 psi on the same day. After one week left alone, the front tire was less than half inflated. Once I bought the bike I noticed this flaw and returned to the shop where I bought it to complain. There, the bike mechanics said this leakage was normal for tubeless rims, saying it is a hard to find a good fit with the rim and its tire. For $1500, I expected not to have refill my tire with air twice in one day. And the inconsistency between the front and rear wheels was night and day. I should have been given a replacement, period. This aside, I think for the money spent on these wheels is a waste. Now I'm going to buy new wheels - and they're NOT going to be made by Mavic.

from Cincy Date Reviewed: February 12, 2004 Strengths: I purchased my first set 2 yrs ago. The front wheel has held up well no Comlaints Weaknesses: I had had to purchase two rear wheels. each of them lasting for only about 4 months. I take care of my stuff too. The freewheel went out on both of them. Garbage! I contacted Mavic, only to be shunned away. Terrible customer service. OH, I can buy a new freewheel if I want too. I even took the wheel to there mobil wheel center at a 24 hour race and they didn't do anything for me.
