Mavic Aksium Road Wheelset (Shimano Freehub)

The legendary Mavic Aksium have long been the standard for production wheels that perform without breaking the bank. Designed with features and technologies that are typically reserved for premium race wheels, Aksium delivers quality performance for everyday road riding. Features include straight-pull spokes for added strength and stiffness, and lightweight rims for a lively ride quality. The rims are now wider, which allows for increased air volume and a better fit for larger diameter tires (up to 32mm). The hubs are incredibly tough, delivering high mileage with no servicing needed. And the QRM bearings are the smoothest in the category. This all adds up to a wheelset that delivers the high-quality ride that Mavic is known for.

Key Benefits:

• Wider rim accommodates larger tire diameters for improved comfort
  
• Straight-pull spokes are stronger than J-bend options
  
• High quality cartridge bearings
• Pinned joint and H2 reinforced drilling rim design
• Consistent and stable spoke lacing
