Mavic Ksyrium, 700c wheelset, 2010, Shimano/Sram, black...$300 for the set
This is a mixed wheelset that I picked up used last fall. The front is a SL and the rear is an Elite. Even though it is a mixed set, it is very hard to tell. The main difference is the spokes. The front SL has aluminum spokes while the Elite has Steel spokes.
Front SL- 18 bladed aluminum radial laced spokes, carbon shell hub, 20mm rim, 650g
Rear Elite- 20 bladed steel spokes, radial drive side, 2- cross non-drive side (Mavic design), 24mm rim, 880g
Total weigh w/o skewers is 1530 according to my scale.
New they would cost $880. My OBRA price is $300 for the set. They are in great condition, showing hardly any ware. They have been trued and dished and are solid, straight as an arrow, smooth breaking surface!!!
I hate to part with this wheelset because of the nice Mavic quality but my old a$$ pc finally died on me and I need a pc more than these wheels. I figure $300 for the set is less than one of these wheels new, and if you ever seen my bikes, I take great care of all my bike stuff.
Thanks,
Stewart
