Mavic Crossmax XL 29" Boost 6 bolts wheelset

Super strong and durable, this MTB wheelset offers unrivaled alloy rim performance and a tubeless system that’s easier to use than anything else on the market. To get the most out of your ride, you need to have confidence in your gear. This is especially true with your wheels, which play a critical role in the overall ride experience. That’s where the new Crossmax XL comes in. It represents the highest quality aluminum trail wheel we’ve ever built.

Rims
The rims are made with our patented Fore technology, which features a fully sealed upper bridge that eliminates the need for rim tape. That saves 30 grams per wheel and does away with the hassle of using tape to set up tubeless tires. The rim has a 30mm internal width, perfect for optimizing the performance of any modern trail tire. It’s engineered with a super strong triangular shape, designed specifically to absorb impacts from the trail. Our Black Shield technology gives them a distinctive finish that protects against scratches and abrasions.

Spokes
Mavic use 24 straight-pull spokes to further dial in the sweet spot between lateral stiffness and vertical compliance. The Infinity hubs feature a stiffer and lighter construction that’s enhanced by the ultra-reliable ID360 double ratchet system for fast engagement. The wheelset is set up for 6-bolt or center lock disc mounts and is compatible with Shimano HG9, SRAM XD, and Micro Spline freewheel bodies. It’s available in either 27.5” or 29” and ships with UST tubeless valves, spare spokes and accessories.

Versatile, dynamic trail riding performance
Wide, strong rim profile with Black Shield treatment protects your rim against impacts and scratches. New lighter, stiffer Infinity hubs with ultra-reliable ID360 freewheel system for instant acceleration.

More confidence and control on rugged terrain
30mm wide rim is optimized for lower tire pressure, giving you a smoother ride with more traction and control. Triangular rim shape absorbs heavy impacts so you're free to bomb the descents.

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 the durability of the rim.

Technologies

UST tubeless technology
Traction and control Universal Standard for Tubeless. Ready to ride tubeless system. The UST concept improves traction, control and comfort whilst reducing inertia and flats.

Instant Drive 360 freewheel
Efficiency rigidity: the new instant Drive 360 freewheel system is super light and efficient. A large contactless rubber seal provides low friction, while a wide array of end caps makes it super versatile.

QRM Auto bearing preload technology
Qualité de Roulements Mavic Auto, the latest innovation. Those cartridge bearings are of course double sealed with C3 internal clearance. Their preload is automatically adjusted to guarantee a perfetc spin with no play on the long run.

Black Shield treatment
Protects your rim against rock impacts and scratches with 2x superior lifetime.

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.

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.
