Selling Mavic's top-of-the line wheelset. These show minimal usage. Here's Mavic's spec and some comments from the Mavic website. Very lightweight. Described as "climbers wheels". Great upgrade to your favorite bike for conquering those nasty hills. 23mm Mavic SSC clincher tires. Shimano/SRAM hubs. Disregard eBay shipping estimate. I estimate $50 CONUS only. "At first glance, you'd be forgiven for thinking the R-Sys SLR are made from carbon – they're in actual fact alloy units which appear that way due to their charcoal aesthetic. Mavic has managed to keep weight to a minimum through the use of hollow carbon-fibre spokes, which also provide lateral stiffness of the highest order. The Tracomp technology used in the spoke design helps with compression and adds to the wheel's compliance – impressive considering the 15mm rim width lends itself to a much narrower tyre than UST-equipped versions. The rims feature a machined surface – dubbed Exalith – for increased friction, which Mavic says improves stopping distance by 20 per cent in both wet or dry conditions. The only downside to this particular wheelset, if it matters to you, is the lack of tubeless compatibility and a disc-brake option."
