MAVIC WHEELS


2010 Mavic CrossTrail Disc

quantity

Every year, Mavic makes it easier to get their high-end wheelsets. The innovations filter down the line, and this Crosstrail would have been seen as a high-zoot wheelset just a few years ago, with a price that would hit your wallet with a gut shot.

The only gut shot you’ll have to worry about with these wheels is that feeling of wonderment when at the top of a steep, sinuous, craggy trail—will I have the guts to push the bike to the outer limits of control and not lose my cool? This is the reasonably priced cousin of the Crossmax wheels, and the price comes down thanks to trickle-down technology, stainless steel spokes, and conventional quick releases.

The Mavic Crosstrail Disc wheelset has Mavic’s Fore rim drilling, where the rim is only pierced on the outside wall. Rim strips are unnecessary and UST tubeless compatibility is easy. The rim has been shaved down between the spokes to reduce rotational inertia. The disc-compatible hubs are drilled for the six-bolt ISO standard or Shimano’s Centerlock. The rear hub is designed to work with eight- or nine-speed cassettes, has a 10mmx135mm axle, and sports Mavic’s new FTS pawl system. The wheels roll on sealed bearing cartridges. The rim diameter is 559x19. Mavic recommends using 1.5” to 2.3” width tires with these wheels.

The wheelset is delivered with traditional aluminum quick releases, UST valves and accessories, a spoke wrench of the rear wheel. 1815g.
