Mavic 2012 Ksyrium Elite Wheelset Technologies:

- Fore: Only one of the 2 rim wall is ''drilled''.
- The rim is 4 times more resistant to fatigue stress.
- 20% increase in the rim rigidity to transfer all of your energy to the ground.
- FTS-L - FTS-L: Force Transfer System Light: The reinforcement of the key transmission components.
- Lighter hub
- Stronger hub
- Better torque transmission
- Isopulse: This spoke lacing design and wheel building brings better wheel stability and a crystal clear transmission of energy thanks to a better spoke tension balance between left and right flanges.
- ISM: Inter Spoke Milling: Lighter rim and equal rigidity is the magic equation to reduce inertia and to free extra power for climbing. A Mavic patented exclusive concept (US 6 402 256).
- Qualité de Roulements Mavic (Mavic bearings quality ) Our most demanding level. Those cartridge bearings are of course double sealed with C3 internal clearance, and topped with a micro-adjustability system, allowing you to quickly adjust your wheels according to performance goals: precision ''''free'''' adjustment for maximum fluidity, or perfect high precision setting for all-weather rides.
- Maxtal: Exclusive to Mavic. An aluminium alloy that is 30% more resistant than a 6106 alloy, for lighter and stronger rims.
- Zicral: A highly resistant and lightweight aluminium alloy for spokes.
- SUP: Soudé Usiné Process - A welded and milled rim joint is extremely strong, eliminates shuddering when braking, and offers superior wheel balance.
- UB Control: Usiné Brut Control - The braking surfaces are milled to improve braking friction and eliminate shuddering.
