Mavic Comete 50 Rear Wheel - 28" | Carbon | Clincher | Centerlock | UST - 12x142mm - SRAM XDR

The Mavic COMETE 50 carbon road bike wheels are designed for cyclists looking for a single set that’s fast on the flats, remains responsive on climbs, and ensures precise tracking at high speeds. The 50mm rim profile and 23mm internal width, combined with 28mm tires, deliver optimized aerodynamics, efficiency, and control. The Adaptive Layup construction combines T700, T1000, and 3K fibers to tailor stiffness, weight, and ride characteristics. The 21 Mavic Aero carbon spokes per wheel enhance pedaling precision, while the Mavic Ceramic bearings and the ID360 40T system improve smoothness and responsiveness. The weight of the COMETE 50 is 715g, and it positions itself as a lightweight and versatile aero carbon wheel for performance on the road.

Aerodynamic Speed on All Routes

The 50mm rim profile and 23mm internal width place the COMETE 50 in the category of aerodynamic and lightweight carbon road bike wheels. The Aero-Wide design was developed by wind tunnel engineers in Geneva to improve and optimize efficiency in headwinds and crosswinds. The result: a time savings of up to 12 seconds over 50 km compared to the Cosmic SLR 45.

Full-carbon responsiveness during acceleration

The Adaptive Layup structure combines T700, T1000, and 3K fibers to balance stiffness, weight, and vibration damping. The 21 Mavic Aero carbon spokes per wheel, arranged in a (14/7) configuration—14 crossed spokes on one side and 7 radial spokes on the other—ensure a perfect balance of tension, which enhances steering precision, vibration damping, and comfort.
The expected result: a more responsive bike when accelerating, sprinting, or changing pace.

Low-friction 40T freehub system

The hub is equipped with the ID360 freehub system featuring a 40-tooth double pawl, combined with Mavic ceramic bearings to minimize friction and improve smoothness at high speeds. Optimized springs and a lightweight hub body contribute to improved performance. The Locked-In spoke nipples maintain consistent spoke tension, a crucial factor in ensuring precision and reliability on every ride so you can get the most out of any road surface.

Technologies of the Mavic Comete 50 rear wheel

Instant Drive 360 freewheel technology

The Instant Drive 360 freehub system is extremely lightweight and efficient. A large, contactless rubber seal ensures low friction, while a wide range of end caps makes it extremely versatile.

Adaptive Layup Carbon Technology

Optimized carbon layup for a tailored combination of lightness, stiffness, and compliance.

UST tubeless technology

Traction and control. Universal Standard for tubeless. Ready-to-ride tubeless system. The UST concept improves traction, control, and comfort while reducing inertia and the risk of flat tires.
