Mavic Deemax DH 18 27.5 XD MTB Wheelset Review

• The new Mavic DH has been redesigned based on its original performance intentions, to excel on gravity fuelled trails. It now sits in line with the modern rider, frame/fork and terrain demands. The Deemax DH has been a superior downhill wheelset for a long time and this current generation of the Deemax continues that performance, but now pushes riders to be able to achieve more as the wheelset can handle any terrain and trail riding situation you can dream of. SRAM XD Equipped This specific version of the Deemax DH wheelset features a SRAM XD DH driver freewheel, which means it is compatible with SRAM XD cassettes. Optimised Performance Output The Deemax DH features an internal rim width of 28mm, which optimises tyre support and creates a tyre profile that increases traction and grip compared to narrower rim widths found on this model in the past. Both wheels are laced using 28 ultra-light straight pull bladed spokes. This creates exceptional wheel stiffness and provides competition level power transfer with the added benefit of aerodynamic properties from the bladed spoke profile. Developed for Downhill and Freeride Developed with and for DH world cup racers, this wheelset stands testament to the structural technology being developed by Mavic for the Downhill and Freeride genres of the sport; they have designed a wheelset to handle all trail situations at the fastest speeds. To increase responsiveness and control, these wheels feature ISM 4D technology, which involves the precise removal of material from the rim to make it lighter without having a negative effect on the structural strength in any way. The rims are also fully UST Tubeless compatible and offer the highest levels of strength and durability as they roll on some of the finest podium proven hubs in the industry. UST Tubeless Ready The UST Tubeless concept improves traction, control and comfort while reducing rolling speed and the possibility of flats. The Tubeless Ready construction results in a lighter overall wheel setup for improved performance. ITS-4 (Instant Energy Transmission) Using 4 pawls working 2 by 2, Instant Transfer System 4 provides a more direct pedal to ground power transfer, thanks to a very fast engagement. Its versatility makes it compatible with all kinds of frame dropout systems. This Deemax DH wheelset offers exceptional performance and durability, which is due to the advanced technology used in their manufacture.  For further information on the technologies listed above, you can see the Mavic Wheel Technology Chart and the Mavic Tyre Technology Chart where you will be able to read in more detail what is involved.  Rims: Material: Maxtal Use with Mavic Tubeless Tape Rim Profile: Hookless Drilling: Fore Joint: SUP Weight Reduction: ISM 4D Internal Width: 28mm Valve Hole Diameter: 6.5mm Tyre: UST Tubeless and Tubetype Spokes: Material: Steel Shape: Straight pull, bladed Count: 28 Lacing: 3-cross Hubs: Front & Rear Hub Body: Aluminium Hub Spacing: Front: 20mm; Rear: 12×150/157mm Sealed cartridge bearings Freewheel: ITS-4 SRAM XD DH Alloy
