Mavic Ksyrium Pro Exalith Wheelset 2020 features

Quality

Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Wheels. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of Mavic Ksyrium Pro Exalith Wheelset 2020.

The first thing is material. Looking at what Mavic Ksyrium Pro Exalith Wheelset 2020 is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.

Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Wheels. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.

There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Wheels. Brands like Mavic are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.

Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Wheels category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.

Do some research to understand how much roughly you can expect to pay for the sort of level of product that you’re looking for.

Mavic Ksyrium Pro Exalith Wheelset 2020 Reviews

Reading reviews is an amazing way of getting a good feel for a product without actually being able to try it or see it first.

There are two different types of reviews, and we also recommend reading both.

1. Expert reviews – In the cycle industry there are loads of really reliable trusted resources for expert reviews. For example if you’re looking to buy a new bike, BikeRadar Bike Reviews are great.

2. Customer reviews – these are probably your best resource for information. There’s no finances or influence involved, they’re purely just honest reviews from customers that have bought and used the product. The reason we love customer reviews so much is because no matter if their view is good or bad, there’s a very good chance that it will be honest and unbiased.

Our best advice is to head over to Chain Reaction Cycles and read the Mavic Ksyrium Pro Exalith Wheelset 2020 reviews there.

Both wide-set rims feature a Maxtal construction, Mavic’s special alloy compound that allows each wheel to stay extra stiff while also remaining lightweight, giving you remarkable control on all road surfaces. Plus, the Exalith brake surface on each rim has been specially designed to give your bike a responsive stopping power in all weather conditions.Advanced Lightweight Rim ConstructionFurther lowering the rim’s weight is the unique ISM 4D (Inter Spoke Milling) technique, which removes excess material from the lower bridge and sidewalls. The spokes use a zicral construction for added stiffness and work with the 24mm/26mm asymmetrical rim depths to create a stunning aerodynamic profile. Plus, each hub uses Mavic’s hard-wearing QRM+ bearings for a reliable performance even when wet.Features:Rim:¬†Alloy (Maxtal) Clincher ¬†Rim Width:¬†17mm (inner) ¬†Rim Height: 24mm (front), 26mm asymmetrical (rear) ¬†Recommended Tyre Sizes: 25-32mm ¬†Spokes:¬†Zicral, straight pull, bladed ¬†Spoke ¬†Count:¬†18 (front), 20 (rear) ¬†Spoke Lacing:¬†Radial (front), Isopulse (rear) ¬†Hub: Mavic, Carbon shell with alloy flanges (front), alloy shell (rear) ¬†QR Axles (front/rear) ¬†Brake Standard: Exalith 2 brake track, Rim Brake ¬†Bearings: QRM+ bearings (front/rear) ¬†Nipples:¬†Alloy, Fore-integrated ¬†Weight:¬†1.48kgTechnology: ¬†Maxtal:¬†Exclusive to Mavic, this specific aluminium alloy offers a higher strength to weight ratio than conventional 6106 alloy. ¬†ISM 4D (Inter Spoke Milling 4 Dimensions):¬†An exclusive Mavic patented concept, ISM 4D significantly reduces weight and inertia without compromising durability.
