Mavic Ksyrium SL Heritage Alloy Disc Brake Wheelset

Description

An Instant Classic!

The Mavic Ksyrium SL Heritage Disc Brake Wheelset pays homage to their history with premium aluminum rims and hubs that combine the timeless aesthetic of raw metal with modern technologies. The result is a wheelset that strikes a gorgeous silhouette while delivering on performance.

Mavic engineers developed the first aluminum wheels for the 1934 Tour de France and winner Antonin Magne. They've come a long way since then, and now you can enjoy this wheelset, inspired by nearly a century of expertise using the material.

Rims, Hubs, & Spokes

The rim is made from 80% recycled 6351-T56 aluminum, and its profile has been designed to provide high lateral stiffness while ensuring vertical compliance for greater comfort. It also benefits from ISM4D machining to vary the material thickness according to the stresses endured.

Ksyrium SL Heritage wheels feature Mavic infinity hubs machined from a solid billet to ensure high performance. The freehub body is equipped with Mavic's patented ratchet Instant Drive360 (ID360) technology. The ratchets are extremely durable and any maintenance needs are simple and tool-free.

Mavic's patented aero spokes are designed to minimize air resistance while providing excellent stiffness. The spokes are attached to the rim using FORE technology, a unique Mavic patent, which involves screwing the spoke head directly into the rim. This reinforces the wheel's strength and allows the rim to be 100% airtight without rim tape, greatly improving the tubeless tire installation. Spoke replacement is also made easier since they are all the same length and can be replaced without removing the tire.

Features:

• ISM4D rim weighs only 400g
