With a UST tubeless-ready profile for enhanced cornering grip and control with lower pressure tyres, this tough and trusted team encourages you to hit the road hard. Alloy-Made, Pacy and Powerful Road Wheelset Rotating around aluminium sealed cartridge bearing hubs for a smooth spin and supportive feel, a consistent, friction-free roll is assured from start to finish. The rear hub houses an FTS-L freehub with Shimano 11-speed freewheel compatibility for terrific power transfer as you climb and push for the podium. This sturdy and speedy pairing also comes wrapped in Yksion Pro UST tyres, eliminating rolling resistance and giving top traction when cornering and braking. With a UB Control surface for a reliable rim brake experience, this Elite version of the acclaimed Ksyrium wheelset is well-equipped for the rigours of rapid and rampant road riding. Technologies: UST Tubeless Ready: The UST concept improves traction, control and comfort while reducing inertia and flats. The Tubeless Ready construction results in a lighter tyre for improved performance. ISM 4D (Inter Spoke Milling 4 Dimensions): An exclusive Mavic patented concept, ISM 4D significantly reduces weight and inertia without compromising durability. Quicker accelerations, better handling and more resistance; the right mix to make the most of any ride. The smooth profile also helps to reduce aerodynamic drag. Isopulse: Optimum energy transfers. The spokes are laced radially on the drive side and 2x crossed on the non-drive side to maximise drive side dish, thus providing a better spoke tension balance between left and right flanges. Higher stiffness under heavy loads for crystal clear energy transmission Better wheel stability means less maintenance MAXTAL: Exclusive to Mavic, this specific aluminium alloy offers a higher strength to weight ratio than conventional 6106 alloy. QRM+ (Qualité de Roulements Mavic): Mavic only uses high-quality sealed cartridge bearings. On QRM wheels, they feature double sealing (2RS or LLU) together with tight C3 internal clearance. FTS-L: Force Transfer System Light Reinforcement of key transmission components. The contact area between the pawl and the hub body in reinforced by two stainless steel inserts, which allows the use of a 100% aluminium hub body. UB Control: The braking surfaces are precisely CNC machined to ensure consistent and reliable braking control.
