Mavic Ksyrium Elite S Wheelset 2015

Mavic's professional teams help them develop the ultimate products required by pro riders.

Trueto its precedent of offering the high end technologies usually reserved for only top of the line models, the Ksyrium Elite S takes another step forward to achieve weight savings matched by only a few wheels. This performance is enhanced even more with new extra light Yksion Pro tyres. Stunning performance and looks at incredible value.

Key Features:

• Mavic Wheel-Tyre system provides the ideal match of products and a clean aesthetic.
• Includes 2 Yksion Comp tyres; Single compound tyre, Casing 120 TPI, Dimension 700x23c (23-622), Max Pressure 9 bar / 130 psi, Weight 210g (per tyre, manufacturer claimed).
• Force Transfer System reinforces the connection between hub body and pawl, increasing efficiency of transmission.
• SUP rims are arc welded for extreme strength.
• CNC milled braking surfaces to eliminate shudder when braking.
• Lightweight Maxtal aluminium alloy rims provide excellent strength-to-weight ratio.
• Isopulse system on the rear wheel uses radially laced spokes on the drive side and crossed spokes on the non-drive side to provide better spoke tension between left and right flanges.
• Fore technology leaves upper rim bridge un-drilled, with spoke nipples screwed directly into the lower bridge. This makes the rim 4 times more resistant to fatigue stress and 20% more rigid.
• GripLink front tyre uses a dual compound optimised to maximise grip on the road, with a nylon anti-puncture breaker.
• PowerLink rear tyre uses a dual compound optimised for excellent energy transfer and low rolling resistance, with a nylon anti-puncture breaker.
• Weights: 1520 grams for wheels, 2060 grams including tyres, tubes and skewers (manufacturer claimed).
• This wheelset has clincher rims.
