Mavic Cosmic SLR 65 Disc Wheelset

Mavic Cosmic SLR 65 Disc Wheelset 2021

With a refined aerodynamic profile, sophisticated design and high-grade materials, the Mavic Cosmic SLR 65 Disc Wheelset is the ideal option for the solo breakaway specialist, the marauding sprinter or the triathlete when tackling flat to heavily undulating terrain.

A refined grade of carbon is laid in a specific format via Mavic’s Fore Carbon Technology concept to lend heightened lateral stiffness to the rim construction while keeping its weight low. The stiffness to weight ratio of the rims is improved further by incorporating directly moulded spoke thread inserts, that negate the need for upper bridge drillings. This holeless upper bridge format also cancels the need to use rim tape when installing tubeless-ready or standard clincher tyres. A 65mm deep rim profile, shaped meticulously in the wind tunnel, lowers aerodynamic drag markedly and improves crosswind stability. The 19mm internal rim width helps tyres realise lower rolling resistance and heightened comfort by spreading their cross-sectional profiles and supporting their sidewalls.

Mavic’s Infinity hubs grant a solid base for the elliptical aero spokes to anchor into, helping to even their build tensions for improved pedalling efficiency, reliability and disc brake modulation. The Instant Drive 360 freehub body provides rapid engagement under pedalling input.

Highlights

• An aerodynamically superior wheelset for the fastest riding scenarios
• Full carbon rim uses Fore Carbon Technology to heighten lateral stiffness and reduce weight
• NACA wind tunnel tuned 65mm deep rim profile reduces aerodynamic drag markedly but is also highly stable in crosswinds
• Fore Carbon Technology improves rim strength to weight ratio by attaching spokes directly, negating the need for drilled holes in the upper rim bridge
• Tubeless-ready and standard clincher tyre compatible
• Infinity hubs are light, increase power transfer and improve disc brake modulation by optimising spoke tensions
• Hub automatic bearing preload adjustment gives added bearing durability
• Instant Drive 360 freehub provide fast engagement under acceleration
• Patented elliptical aero spokes are strong and dependable and reduce drag by five watts per wheel
