Product Details
The Mavic Aksium Wheelset stays true to this Mavic DNA with features usually reserved for top performance road wheels. features include straight pull spokes that bring strength and stiffness, while the versatile and lightweight rims keep inertia low and reactivity high. New for 2016, the lightweight rims are now wider to increase air volume and for a better fit with tires up to 32mm. The hubs are incredibly tough to withstand high mileage with no servicing needed. And the QRM bearings are the smoothest in the category. This all adds up to a Mavic wheelset with a world-class ride quality that will last longer than any other.
