According to the product specialist
Pros
-
The Crossmax wheels are strong, reliable and use high-end technologies such as UST tubeless and an ID360 hub. This gives the wheels a very good value for money. |
The hubs are well sealed against water, mud and dirt, reducing the need to replace bearings. |
The Instant Drive 360 freewheel body has a 9-degree engagement, which means the wheelset is very responsive when you accelerate. |
The UST tubeless system has a tight connection between rim and tyre. This makes the setup perfectly airtight and can even be made tubeless with an ordinary bike pump. |
After registering the wheels on Mavic's website, the manufacturer's warranty is extended from 2 to 3 years. |
The Carbon Care Wheel Loyalty program gives you extra security when your wheels get damaged. |
The Rapid Drive 54 hub engages quickly, you feel immediate results from the power you deliver. |
Cons
-
The Crossmax wheels are relatively heavy for an XC wheelset (1937 grams, 29"). With a higher-end MTB wheelset, you can gain quite a bit of weight so you can bring them up to speed more easily. |
The Mavic Crossmax is not available with Shimano MicroSpline fitting. However, an optional Mavic ID360 Shimano MicroSpline body is available. |
There are no conversion kits to Quick Release available for the Kovee Elite wheels. |
