Mavic Aksium Shimano Wheelset Road Bike Wheel Sets | Bike-Discount

Designed with features and technologies that are typically reserved for premium race wheels from Mavic, Aksium delivers quality performance for everyday road riding.

Smooth, efficient ride quality: the Aksium from Mavic

Features include straight-pull spokes for added strength and stiffness, and lightweight rims for a lively ride quality. The rims are now wider, which allows for increased air volume and a better fit for larger diameter tires (up to 32mm).

The hubs are incredibly tough, delivering high mileage and long-lasting dependability. And the QRM bearings are the smoothest in the category. It all adds up to a wheelset that delivers the high-quality ride that Mavic is known for.

Technologies

QRM (Qualité de Roulements Mavic)
Mavic only uses high quality sealed cartridge bearings. On QRM wheels, they feature double sealing (2RS or LLU) together with tight C3 internal clearance.

FTS-L (Force Transfer System Light)
Reinforcement of key transmission components: the contact area between the pawl and the hub body is reinforced by 2 stainless steel inserts, which allows the use of a 100% aluminum hub body.
