Reviews over the

Mavic Aksium 2016

I've used Mavic wheels over many years, well designed, well built and run true and free. I have no hesitation to recommend these.

Great wheel set for day to day training rides, roll well but feel solid at the same time. Look good as well!

Pros & Cons

I search the internet for the best deals for wheelsets and always arrive back at Mantel. I know the quality of the Mavic Aksiums but it’s the service from Mantel that keeps me coming back time and time again. Long may it continue!

Excellent value, great wheels.

Pros & Cons

For a training/winter wheel they are spot on stiff and strong for the price and well done to Mantel the price was good and they turned up when they said, will buy from you guys again.

Pros & Cons

Purchased these for all-round use on my road bike. Still to be taken for a test ride but first impressions are good. Excellent build quality and roll true. Very impressed for the money. Did have a problem with order, but mantel resolved this quickly and professionally. Bravo!

Pros & Cons

Made my rides to work much faster!!!

Pros & Cons

Looking good, rolling good, priced good.

Great wheels for the price

Pros & Cons

For the money, this wheelset is reliable and bomb-proof. My previous set lasted for years without the need to service or replace parts. They were out through 5 years' winter training. Excellent

At this price point, you cerntainly get a lot of bang for your buck. Wheels look great and are well-built. Second pair I've had as they survive the good old British potholes and wet weather really well.

Pros & Cons

Very good wheels, I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Pros & Cons

The wheels from Mandel arrived on time and well packaged they were the cheapest on the internet .Mavic Aksium wheels roll good on the road and are strong these are a upgrade from my shimano 501 wheels for my winter bike.

Pros & Cons

Arrived on time. Solid training wheels at a good price.

These wheels are a great quality replacement for the standard fit on my Cannondale CAAD 8. For the price I couldn't be happier with the compromise of quality and performance.

Pros & Cons

I have these wheels on another of my road bikes, and when the bearings got a bit rumbly on my Jamis, I decided to go for them again. I did my first ride on them yesterday and they preformed faultlessly, just as expected. The price from mantel was the best I could find, and having ordered on a Monday evening, was pleasantly surprised when they arrived on the Wednesday morning. many thanks, keep up the good work!

Pros & Cons

I was looking for an inexpensive pair of trainning wheels and was advised by a friend to consider the Mavic Askium wheels. I looked at them on the Mantel site where they are very competitively priced and decided to give the a try. When I received them I was more than pleasantly surprised by the super quality and design of the wheels. Their appearance is of a much more expensive wheel and the ride confirms this. One of the best purchases I have made.

Pros & Cons

Rims were just what I wanted them to be.

Bought these to replace my Fulcrum Racing 5s which had worn rims, can't sat that the Mavics feel any lighter or heavier. The hub makes a really pleasant noise when freewheeling, not too loud & not too quiet, just the way I like them. I bought the 25mm version & they are a lot easier to put the tyre on than the Fulcrums which were so so difficult to get the tyre on or off. The graphics on the Mavics are pleasing & they have so far remained true even after hitting several pot holes. Rim tape was already installed & it came with quick release skewers so excellent value. All in all a very good purchase.

Pros & Cons

These replaced the stock wheels on my Giant. Clear directions on when to use the cassette spacer. Only a few rides in but are really stiff. Mantel had the best price on the web. Free delivery to the UK, and very quick too. Ordered Saturday and arrived Wednesday. Great stuff all round.

Pros & Cons

Really enjoyed the experience on Mantel and obviously the mavic wheels are the best.

These mavic wheels are a great upgrade to the wheel set supplied with my cannondale. Happy with the purchase.

Pros & Cons

Much better than original wheels

Strong and durable, true.

Pros & Cons

Highly recommended. No issues at all. Excellent value for money.

Reasonably light, remarkably strong, low maintenance wheels for everyday use.

Pros & Cons

Great Entry level wheels a good upgrade for the wheels that came with the bike. I have another set of these on my winter bike they have survived the worst that the Irish weather can throw.

Pros & Cons

Couldn't get my wheels cheaper than at Mantel. Can't fault the service or product. Happy chappie!

Pros & Cons

Stiff , light , roll wheel for a intermediate training wheel that doesn't cost the earth for winter training highly recommended.

Arrived very promptly. Just as advertised. Good price. What more is there to say.

Bought these as a like for like replacement for the originals that came on the bike finally on their last legs after 11K miles on rough country roads and in all weathers so more than pleased with them
