Front wheel Mavic Crossmax XL INT 29 BST

Product Description

Trail is all about adventure, strong emotions, and enjoyment. It's about exploring wild places and pleasant trails. To get the most out of every ride, you need to trust your gear. This is especially true for your wheels, as they play a crucial role in how you experience your ride. This is where the new Crossmax XL comes in, the best aluminium trail wheel we have ever designed. The rims are made using our Fore technology, which includes a fully sealed upper bridge that eliminates the need for a rim tape. This way, each wheel weighs 30 grams less and spares the cyclist from having to fit a rim tape before installing a tubeless tyre. The internal rim width of 30 mm is ideal for optimising the performance of all modern trail tyres. Its very durable triangular profile is specially designed to absorb shocks from the terrain. Our Black Shield technology gives it a unique finish, ensuring protection against scratches and abrasion. To achieve the delicate balance between lateral stiffness and vertical compliance, we use 24 straight spokes. The hubs feature a stiffer and lighter structure, further enhanced by the reliable ID360 double pawl quick engagement system. This pair of wheels is designed for 6-bolt or Center Lock disc brakes and is compatible with Shimano HG9, SRAM-XD, and Micro Spline freehub bodies. Available only in 29' and compatible with Boost axle formats (front 15x110, rear 12x148), it comes with UST Tubeless valves, replacement spokes, and accessories. Key features Versatile and dynamic for trail performance Wide and durable rim profile with a Black Shield treatment (protection against shocks and scratches). New Infinity hub platforms are lighter and stiffer, featuring a highly reliable ID360 freehub body for instant acceleration. Increased confidence and control on tough terrain The 30 mm wide rim is optimised to allow for lower tyre pressures, resulting in smoother handling, better traction, and improved manoeuvrability. The triangular rim profile absorbs the roughest shocks: engage in descents! Very easy to use tubeless system The rim, completely airtight without a rim tape thanks to Fore technology, simplifies the fitting and changing of tubeless tyres. The upper bridge is not drilled, which enhances the rim's stiffness and durability.
