The Crossmax SL is Mavic's most advanced aluminium cross-country wheel. For all ambitious XC racers, this lightweight, efficient 29" wheel offers the most user-friendly of tubeless systems at an affordable price point.
The name Crossmax has a long history in the world of XC riding and racing, and the new Crossmax SL lives up to that legacy. It offers many of the proven Mavic technologies at an attainable price. Weighing just 1700g, it’s a true all-rounder and the best alloy XC wheel in its category. The rims are made with their patented Fore technology featuring a fully sealed upper rim bridge that eliminates the need for rim tape. That saves 30 grams per wheel, not to mention the hassle of using tape to set up tubeless tires. The rim has a 25mm internal width with a durable hookless profile, and the Black Shield technology gives them a distinctive, modern look that protects against scratches and abrasions. Mavic use 24 straight-pull spokes (same spoke length throughout) for a strong connection between the rim and hub and a perfect balance between efficiency and durability. Special machining on the hub ensures that the spoke head is secured but can still travel in the slot. This allows the wheel to absorb impacts from trail obstacles. The Instant Drive 360 freewheel coupled with QRM Auto bearing technology provides fast engagement and added durability. The Crossmax SL 29 is compatible with Shimano HG9, Micro Spline and SRAM XD driver bodies. It’s available with 6-bolt or center lock brake rotors in 29” only and is compatible with a 15x110 front axle and 12x148 rear. It comes with valves, replacement spokes and accessories.
Fore technology reduces rim weight and increases stability. Omitting the rim tape saves 30 g/rim. Ultra-reliable Instant Drive 360 freewheel for lightning acceleration.
The 25 mm wide Hookless rim profile is optimised for lower tyre pressures - creating better grip in all conditions. Designed for modern XC tubeless tyres from 2.1 to 2.30". Black Shield treatment protects the rim from impacts and scratches.
Completely airtight rim (thanks to Fore technology even without rim tape) makes installation and change of tubeless tyres particularly easy. The outer rim base without holes increases the stiffness and durability of the rim.
