Mavic Aksium Wheelset 2016
Just because these are Mavic's entry level wheel, does not mean that this Mavic Aksium Wheelset 2016 is of exceptional quality, especially in this latest iteration.
Making use of the research and technology that goes into their highest quality wheels gives these Aksiums some real quality.
New for this 2016 version are the wider lightweight rims. Research has shown that this gives tyres an increased volume in contact with the road for comfort and performance. It also means that these new rims can better fit tyres up to 32 mm in width.
The straight pull bladed spokes give these better strength that J-bent ones as well as improved aerodynamics. The twenty front and rear spokes are laced two-cross on the drive side and radial on the non-drive side as well as front to further enhance the durability of this wheel whilst keeping weight to a minimum.
The aluminium hub contains sealed cartridge bearings. The contained QRM bearings are the silkiest in the category. Combining all of the above has allowed Mavic to produce the highest possible ride quality with supreme durability at a fantastic price.
