Mavic Crossmax XL Black Shield 29" Boost front wheel

The new Crossmax XL is super strong, durable, and it makes tubeless setup a breeze

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 wheels are built with 24 straight-pull spokes to save weight and maximize wheel strength, so you get just the right balance of efficiency and durability. Power transfer is handled by new ID 360 freehub, which is compatible with all common axle standards. It can be used with quick-release or thru-axle setups with adapters.

Key benefits

Versatile, dynamic trail riding performance
Wide, strong rim profile with Black Shield treatment protects your rim against impacts and scratches.

More confidence and control on rugged trails
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 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

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
