These rims use Mavic's UST tubeless system. Tubeless wheels are lighter,
weighing far less than the traditional wheel, rim, tape, tube and tire. It
also means that tire pressure is easier to adjust, which means that you are
more able to tune it to the terrain which you're riding on. There is also
the benefits of fewer flats, especially those due to shock, deteriorated rim
tape or punctures. The rim is made from Maxtal, an alloy specific to Mavic,
which is 30% stronger than 6106. SUP welding uses arc welding instead of
ordinary sleeve joints to create added strength. It also has the advantage
of creating no visible joints which could cause shuddering when braking. UB
Control is a process which digitally mills the sidewalls of the rim after
anodization. This increases the friction between the rim and brake block to
lead to more efficient braking. Mavic QRM hubs are used which have sealed
cartridge bearings for a smooth running as well as keeping out the muck for
durability.
Tubeless technology at an incredibly affordable price! Black anodized MAXTAL
SUP-welded rim, QRM bearings, 24 stainless steel spokes and brass nipples.
The absence of a tube, rim tape and drilling inside the rim lets you run
super-low pressure and greatly reduces the risk of flats. Includes skewer
and instructions. Weight: 810g front. 1020g rea. Shimano? 8/9 compatible.
