Reviews over the
Mavic Ksyrium S
5 / 5
High-quality, lightweight rims - problematic mounting for some tyres
The wheels fully meet my expectations. They are light, run well, are well made and look good. Mavic's customer service is also exemplary - you get a competent answer to your questions quickly. However, the picture is mixed when it comes to assembly... I have two identical wheel sets of this type - one for my summer tyres and one for my winter tyres. Mounting the tubeless summer tyres (Schwalbe G-One Allround Performance 40-622) was unproblematic. The jackets went on the rims without any problems and I even got one tyre sealed with the normal floor pump. For the other tyre I needed a booster when mounting it for the first time, but that is often the case with tubeless tyres. Mounting the winter tyres (Schwalbe Marathon Winter Plus 42-622) was extremely difficult. The front tyre just went on the rim with a certain amount of force - but on the rear tyre I broke off two tyre levers, which was really annoying because part of one of the tyre levers ended up inside the tyre and I couldn't get the tyre off the rim for a while. The solution was to buy extra-long steel tyre levers, with which the removal/installation was not entirely without scratches, but at least it was possible. They are also so heavy that you don't always want to take them with you - the question is what to do in case of a puncture... All in all, I can really recommend the wheels, as long as you don't get the "wrong" tyres. Apart from that, when riding with the above-mentioned tyres, which are wider than the width recommended by Mavic, there have been no problems so far if you ride them with the right pressure.

Fine wheelset.
Fine wheels with good workmanship that roll fine and are suitable for all tyres.
