Mavic Crossmax SL S Black Shield 29" Boost front wheel
Strong, reliable and tubeless ready, this modern XC wheel lives up to the legendary Crossmax name
For all-around cross-country performance, including faster climbing and descending, this premium 29" alloy wheelset delivers stiffness, durability and the easiest tubeless system available today. This Tubeless Ready wheelset lives up to its name with many of the same features and technologies as pro-level XC race wheels, but at a far more attainable price. One of the key factors is a UST technology, which allows for easy setup of tubeless ready tyres and gives you all the associated benefits including better traction and control, a smoother ride quality and a reduced risk of punctures. The rim design features a 25 mm internal width with a hookless profile, a sensible setup for tubeless XC tyres.
Key benefits
Best in its class alloy XC wheelset
ISM4D rim machining reduces weight to close the gap to carbon rims without compromising strength.
Lighter weight rims result in super low inertia and instant acceleration.
Increased traction and durability
25mm wide hookless rim profile optimized for lower tire pressures, resulting in improved grip in all conditions.
Optimized for modern XC tubeless tires from 2.1 to 2.30".
Black Shield treatment protects rims against impacts and scratches.
Most user-friendly tubeless system
Fore technology fully sealed rim with no rim tape makes it easy to mount and change tubeless tires.
Leaving the upper rim bridge intact boosts the stiffness and durability of the rim.

Technologies
UST Tubeless Ready tyre
Traction, control and lightweight. The UST concept improves traction, control and comfort while reducing inertia and flats. The 'tubeless ready' construction results in a lighter tyre for improved performance.
QRM Auto bearing preload technology
Mavic latest innovation. Those cartridge bearings are of course double sealed with C3 internal clearance. Their preload is automatically adjusted to guarantee a perfect spin with no play on the long run.
SUP welding technology
Stronger and smoother joint
Soudé Usiné Process. After bending, the rim joint is arc welded. The welded seam is then milled for a smooth finish.
- Extremely strong rim joint
- Eliminates shuddering when braking
- Superior wheel balance
ISM 4D light rim technology
Inter Spoke Milling 4 Dimensions
An exclusive Mavic patented concept, ISM 4D significantly reduces weight and inertia without compromising durability. Quicker accelerations, better handling and more resistance ; the right mix to make the most of any ride. The smooth profile also helps reducing aerodynamic drag
- 15% lighter rim, the lowest inertia for instant acceleration, better handling and faster climbing
- Variable rim thickness optimizes constraints management for more reliability
- Smoother rim profile offers better air flow which reduces drag for higher speed
Fore tapeless tubeless technology
Stiffer and stronger
Instead of being drilled, the lower rim bridge is pushed up on the inside, then threaded to enable the spoke nipples to be directly screwed in it, leaving the upper rim bridge intact.
- Rim is 4 times more resistant to fatigue stress
- 20% increase in the rim rigidity to maximize power transfer
- No rim tape is needed(no added weight), for easier tubeless set up and maintenance and more reliable air tightness
Included
- UST valve and accessories
- 2 replacement spokes
