What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "I swapped for these Centerlock Crossmax XL S wheels and the difference was instant—quieter, cleaner braking and easier rotor swaps. They’ve got that same Mavic mix of strength and compliance, so they track beautifully through chunky terrain without feeling harsh. The Fore rim design makes tubeless setup painless, and the 30mm width gives 2. 5in tires that perfect profile. These are my favorite alloy trail wheels, no question."Built for riders who live for the long climbs, technical descents, and endless flow of modern trail riding, the Mavic Crossmax XL S 29 front and rear wheels with Centerlock hubs deliver confidence, control, and low-maintenance performance on every ride. These alloy wheels combine Mavic’s decades of race-proven engineering with smart design details that make them lighter, stronger, and easier to service—without sacrificing toughness on rugged trails. The 30mm internal width alloy rims are optimized for 2. 3–2. 6in tires, giving just the right mix of traction, support, and precision. Mavic’s Fore technology keeps the upper rim bridge fully sealed, eliminating the need for rim tape and saving weight, while ISM machining shaves grams in low-stress zones to keep the ride quick and agile. The Black Shield finish resists rock strikes and scratches, keeping your wheels looking sharp even after seasons of use. A 24-spoke build and 2-cross lacing keep stiffness and compliance in perfect balance, backed by Infinity hubs that improve tension balance and responsiveness. The ultra-reliable ID360 double ratchet system ensures near-instant engagement when powering through technical sections, and the Centerlock rotor interface keeps braking clean, consistent, and easy to maintain. Built with Boost spacing, the Crossmax XL S 29 wheels are the dependable alloy upgrade ready for all your trail adventures.
