The best wheels for your mountain bike are waiting for you at Escapa.

Tackle the toughest climbs and tackle technical descents with the best aluminum Trail wheel we’ve ever made. The Mavic Crossmax XL S 29" Wheel Set is lighter and stronger, and makes Tubeless setup a breeze.

You never know what the Sendero might have in store: steep climbs and adrenaline-pumping descents, slightly muddy sections, and massive boulders. No matter what the trail throws at you or how much fun it offers, the new Crossmax XL S is ready to roll. This best-in-class 29" aluminum wheel features many of the proven technologies that have made Mavic a leader in MTB wheel innovation.

The rims are designed with our patented Fore technology, featuring a fully sealed rim top that eliminates the need for a rim liner. This saves 30 grams per wheel and avoids the hassle of using a rim liner when mounting Tubeless tires. We use ISM rim machining, which removes material from strategic areas of the rim to minimize weight without compromising strength. The rim features a 30 mm internal width, optimized to extract the best performance from any modern Trail tire, and our Black Shield technology gives them a distinctive finish that protects against scratches and abrasions.

We use 24 straight spokes to further fine-tune the ideal balance of lateral stiffness and vertical compliance. The Infinity hubs feature a stiffer, lighter construction, enhanced by the ultra-reliable ID 360 double-ratchet system for quick engagement. The wheelset is configured for Center Lock disc mounts and is compatible with Micro Spline freehub bodies. It is available only in 29" and comes with UST Tubeless valves, spare spokes, and accessories.

KEY FEATURES

The best-in-class aluminum Trail wheelset

The super-strong rim with ISM machining minimizes weight without compromising strength.

Greater confidence and control on bumpy trails

The 30 mm-wide rim is optimized for lower tire pressure, giving you a smoother ride with more traction and control. The rim’s triangular shape absorbs hard impacts so you can tackle descents with confidence.

The easiest-to-use Tubeless system

Fore technology—a fully sealed rim design without a rim tape—makes Tubeless tires easy to mount and change. The rim’s upper lip remains intact, increasing the rim’s stiffness and durability.
