Thank you for taking the time to review these Mavic wheels. I found it very interesting and informative. My next bike will be a new Litespeed T1SL. They offer four choices of wheel sets but I'm still interested in other options. Really appreciate the information! Cheers from McCarthy Aerospace Watches - Leeds Alabama USA !
Yes, very rare. Therefore, it was a difficult purchase, but I am satisfied regardless. The rim is starting to show some discoloration, but braking performance has not dropped yet after 5,000km +.
I have them setup as tubeless, works like a charm. Both on the original tires Griplink/Powerlink and on Yksion Pro 2 UST, on which Im using now. I use Orange Seal as sealant.
Excellent video thanks, I got opportunity to buy ksyrium pro alloy it doesn't have that name exalith but they look cool for £400. I think I'll go for them.cheers mate
I've bought also a CAAD 12 and i am thinking to upgrade the wheelset. I got a offer for 400€ from a friend. New wheelset. But IT's the KSYRIUM pro disc. Worth it? If i spend 1k i would buy carbon wheelset. Did you also think about this option? Why did you still choose Aluminium over carbon at this price point.
Sorry for the late reply. As you can see in the video, there is some discoloration on the rim surface, but there is no drop in performance and not necessarily an eye-sore (yet!). Have ridden approx. 5,000+ km

Thanks. A rare review. I hope to hear about the wear of exalith from time to time

@@tokyocyclist2509 thanks. I am also not able to find pics that have worn exalith as well.
How was the wheels noe
How is the colour of the brakeline now? Is it the same as it was? Or the colour changing?
I have similar blacked-out aluminum wheels. They are Campagnolo Shamal Mille. Love them!

Such smart wheels! I literally can’t find these to buy anywhere in the UK.
I’m a mavic fan they looks nice
is it ceramic bearing?
Mavic wheels are 2-4% heavier than they claimed on the web. But I like Mavic alloy wheels for training.
Long ride, lower your tyre pressure to a comfortable pressure
Good taste
After all this time using the wheel so far, do you have issues of discoloured rim surface? Thanks
Have you got any issues to it till now? Planning to buy the same ws as urs but in 2nd hand
Are you having issues with the brakeline exalith?
im also new to cycling and i just bought a caad12 a month ago. im looking into mavic ksyrium or fulcrum racing zero. any thoughts?

Cool review ! What about the decoloration of the exalith coat ? How many km have you ridden ? Thanks !

@@tokyocyclist2509 Thanks a lot !
what bottom bracket did you instal on to be able to put on ultegra cranks? was it easy to put on a tyre?
Has the noise on the brakes come down?
Sir does it have a ceramic bearing?
Is it carbon fibre?
No, aluminum.
Do you have an Instagram channel i can follow? Looking forward for future upgrades
