Mavic Crossmax SX Wheels - For Sale

Can the front convert to a 15mm axle?

I don't think it will...

I stand corrected... I've just been told the front can be converted to 15mm..

I have zero experience working with these wheels so I have no idea how you would do it..?

Actually.... it looks like you can convert them to 15mm at the front..

According to this ad the 15mm adapter is compatible with 2010 and 2011 Crossmax SX Wheels... so that's these then...!

The rear is 135mm x 12mm bolt through but it has 135mm QR adapters fitted..

To remove the adapters you simply pull them out by hand.. they are held in with O-rings..

A bit more research and I've found the following adapters that will work with these wheels...

will they take maxxis ignitors , then? would the volume of the rims not affect the volume in the tyres and increase my rolling resistance ?

It all depends on the compound your using... if its tricky ****y 66a then you'll be grand.. but if the wind changes you'll stay like that.. so I recommend using a triple nipple compound.. that way you've no excuse as you have covered the three major compound groups.. rubber, black rubber and knobbly rubber

And the volume of the rim is inversely proportional to the dynamic range of the rolling resistance.... jeeez duh...!!! I thought everyone knew that..!!

Can you elaborate any further on that Gerry?

I could.. but it'd be fierce technical like...
