Mavic Cosmic Carbone Ultimate

The Mavic Cosmic Carbone Ultimate might be the lightest, stiffest, most aerodynamic wheelset ever made. Mavic used more carbon fiber in this wheelset than we've ever seen before, from the 40mm aero rims to the bladed spokes and even the hubs themselves. The spokes are molded directly to the rims and hubs, so there are no nipples, and no holes to weaken the system. In fact, the only metal parts at all are the axles, rear hub body and freewheel. Oh, and the included quick-release skewers are titanium. So go ahead, make the jump. Your kids might never go to college, but you will have some seriously low split times. Bottom Line Carbone means carbon. Ultimate means ultimate.
