For over a decade, Ksyrium Elite has stood for reliability, low weight and versatility and in this latest version we’re using the same high-tech features as the Ksyrium SL but at an even more attractive price-point. Improved performance One of the biggest features is a wider rim shape, which is enlarged by two millimeters. That might not sound much, but when combined with 25mm tires it increases the air volume by 18%. This extra volume means you can lower the tire pressure by 20 PSI while maintaining the same rolling resistance as with a narrower rim and tire. The result is greatly improved comfort with no compromise on rolling efficiency to keep you fast on the long haul. And despite the lower tire pressure, the increased distance between the rim edge and the ground (thanks to the extra air) means pinch flats are easily avoided. We’ve also used Mavic’s exclusive and patented Fore Drilling to create a stronger connection between the spokes and the rim, while our innovative Isopulse lacing improves stability and lateral stiffness under heavy loads such as sprinting or climbing. The best technology, where it matters We’ve made sure all of this performance is achieved without a gain in weight thanks to our exclusive patented ISM4D technology. This removes material from the rim where it’s not needed but keeps it around the spokes, where the tension is applied. The result is a wide yet super-light rim at just 405g. Yksion pro tires to match The new Ksyrium Elite will still come fitted with our Yksion Pro tire. The Yksion Pro Griplink is optimized for front wheel use thanks to its sticky compound, water evacuation tread pattern and super strong Kevlar flat protection, it will keep you safe on any road surface and in all weather conditions. The rear wheel comes with the Yksion Pro Powerlink with its specially designed compound, supple nylon reinforced casing and tread pattern to increase rolling efficiency. The result is not only a fast and dependable performing tire system but also one that is also extremely light weight at just 210g in a generous and comfortable 25mm width. The finish has also been re-designed and upgraded using a combination of matt and gloss finishes. The wheel is available in four color options depending on your preference: black on black, black with red highlights, black with blue highlights and black with white highlights.
