Mavic Comete 55 Rear Wheel - 28" | Carbon | Clincher | Centerlock | UST - 12x142mm - Shimano HG

The lightweight aero combo for pure speed and control

The Mavic Comete 55 carbon rear wheel is designed for speed thanks to a unique combination of aerodynamics, lightness, and rolling efficiency. The flatter front rim ensures fast aerodynamics and precise handling.

Thanks to years of wind tunnel and real-world testing with integrated sensors, Mavic engineers have taken the rim design to a new level: the Aero-Wide rim, optimized for 30mm tires. The result: a wheel that’s significantly faster in all wind conditions, from flat stretches to steep climbs and descents.
The Comete 55 has good aerodynamics, offers more momentum, and is therefore the ideal companion for anyone who spends more time on undulating routes than on steep sections.

Ultimate Rolling Efficiency

This wheel is built around a 25 mm wide Aero-Wide rim and is optimized for 30 mm wide tires. It offers an outstanding balance of aerodynamics and rolling efficiency. Every detail has been validated through wind tunnel testing, Mavic Lab testing, and feedback from professional riders, and optimized for speed. The 21 aerodynamic carbon spokes minimize drag while increasing lateral stiffness, delivering a direct and responsive ride feel. Combined with Mavic ceramic bearings, friction is reduced to a minimum, resulting in smoother, faster rolling and a sense of effortless speed ride after ride.

Full Carbon - Responsiveness You Can Feel

Mavic’s proprietary adaptive layup structure, which combines different fibers (T700, T1000, 3K), offers an ideal balance between stiffness, handling, and riding dynamics. The aerodynamically shaped, lightweight carbon spokes transmit every watt without loss and underscore the wheel’s sporty character.
Internal tests show that the 21/21 spoke configuration (14/7 on each side) offers the best balance of stiffness, aerodynamics, and weight for precise handling and perfect tension distribution, further enhancing riding precision. Carbon spokes absorb vibrations, thereby increasing comfort, stability, and control.

Technologies of the Mavic Comete 55 rear wheel

Instant Drive 360 freewheel technology

The Instant Drive 360 freewheel 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
