Reviews over the

Mavic Crossmax XL S 29

Rolls well, good grip due to wider rim in mud

Pros & Cons

Only installed so far, but makes a very high-quality impression.

Lightweight stable wheelset, drive it on my trail hardtail and have no problems with eights or dents during intensive use. Also the spokes have never loosened. I know from other wheels also different. For me, a super compromise of stiffness, weight and price, just compared to carbon. The extra cost of XL S to XL is with the lower weight and the cool milled rim was worth it for me in any case. A very nice detail is that the milling at the valve hole is omitted to get more stability here and also to prevent opposite and an out-of-round run. The decor could be a little more discreet for my taste, but I can simply remove the stickers.
