E-Mountain bikes have their own unique demands and performance parameters. Everything from the system weight (rider and bike) to the riding style is different compared to traditional mountain bikes.
The Mavic E-Crossmax wheelset represents all Mavic has learned through extensive testing of off-road e-bikes, and it is aimed at helping everyday off-road riders get the best performance out of their machines. It features a rim technology Mavic calls PFP (Pinch Flat Protection), which minimizes the risk of flat tires and rim damage. Changing a flat on the trail is that much more complicated on an e-bike, so this is a key benefit of the E-Crossmax. The UST rims make it easy to run tubeless tires, which offer increased traction, a smoother ride quality and no chance of pinch flatting a tube. They feature a asymmetrical shape and are 30mm wide (internal), which is optimal for large tires up to 3.0".
The wheels have an increased spoke count (28 straight pull) and larger diameter flanges on the hubs to handle the added torque of e-bikes. And like all Mavic wheel systems, they are engineered to be as light as possible without sacrificing strength. This helps your e-bike accelerate faster and perform more efficiently.
On the technical side, the front hub is compatible with 15x110 mm Boost thru axles and the rear hub is suited for 12x148 mm Boost thru axles.
With user-friendly UST (universal standard for tubeless) rims this fast and light wheels provide all the benefits of tubeless - traction, control, lower risk of flats and reduced weight.
Technologies:
Inside the E-Crossmax rear wheel the new freewheel-generation named
Instant Drive 360 will be used - it makes a perfect hub: low weight, minimized friction, quick force-closure, high axle-stiffness and enormously long lifetime. And if maintenance should be necessary, or altering the axle-standard, it is tool-free and easier than ever before.
UST - Universal Standard for Tubeless. Ready to ride tubeless system. The UST concept improves traction, control and comfort whilst reducing inertia and flats.
QRM Auto (Qualité de Roulements Mavic Auto) - Mavic's latest innovation. Those cartridge bearings are of course double sealed with C3 internal clearance. Their preload is automatically adjusted to guarantee a perfect spin with no play on the long run.
