According to the product specialist

Pros
Wide rims for comfortable handling and stable handling.
Thanks to the butted spokes and tubeless set up, you won't easily get stranded with a breakdown.
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 WH-M8100 wheels give you great control on technical trails and are light enough for hilly terrain.
As the rims are Tubeless Ready, switching to riding without inner tubes is easy. Add sealant and you can ride at lower tyre pressure and are less likely to get punctures.
The Microspline freehub body is designed to prevent the cassette eating into it.
Cons
Due to the wide rims, the total weight is slightly higher.
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.
Shimano's Microspline freehub body is only compatible with Shimano 12-speed cassettes.
