Mavic Aksium Elite 28 Wheelset 2016
When entry level is no longer good enough, look to the light and reliable Mavic Aksium Elite 28 Wheelset 2016. The price difference between these Elites and the entry level version pails into insignificance when you realise that included here are the Mavic Yksion Elite Guard road tyres and the required inner tubes, which all together would cost about the same as the price difference and you are getting a better set of wheels.
Probably the most tangible improvement for this sportier version is the ten percent weight saving. This will save you effort in races, sportives or over any kind of ride. The saving comes from advanced rim join technology to a sleeved version. Furthermore, allows the wheel to spin better, steer better and climb better.
The bladed straight pull spokes give these better strength that J-bent ones. The twenty that are used here are then laced radially in the front and non-drive side with two cross for the drive side to further enhance the durability of this wheel as well as ensure that your efforts are securely transferred all the way to the ground.
The aluminium hub contains double sealed cartridge bearings of the incredibly tough QRM variety. These spin with low friction as well as making this wheelset even more durable.
Just pop a casette on and these are ready to help you tear up the miles at break-neck speed.
