Mavic Cosmic Elite, Ksyrium Elite

The Zonda and Fulcrum 3 are similar weight and similar price to the Kysirium Elites and all three are good wheels.
But the tests above miss one hugely important aspect and that is wheel stiffness. It is for their stiffness that people buy Elites and you feel the difference the first time you get out of the saddle on a hill. They are as stiff as a farmhouse kitchen table and all of your effort is converted into forward motion, rather than some going to flexing the wheels.
If you wanted anything other than a great climbing wheel, you would have a deep section aero wheel and it certainly wouldn't be a bendy climbing wheel that gave excellent levels of comfort.Boardman Elite SLR 9.2S

I'll probably end up selling my Yksion tyres. I like my GP4000s too much

just reading about your mavic cosmic elite debate, i currently have these on my bike, had them for about 3 years now. ive found them to be a good bullit proof wheelset, had no faults with them and got them off ebay for £245 inc tyres & cassette. i also would like to upgrade to a lighter wheelset. i currently run the mavics with michelin pro 4 s ,at 125psi, im looking at some dura ace c24s, but as i would like to run them at 125psi or higher should i be looking at tubular c24s ?0

Anyone ordered these lately from the german site.0

Could you tell me what size tyres come with these, 23mm or 25mm?0 -

There's always an old geezer who just stays alive to post this..perhaps 1023 times. Why not just search every time and never start a new thread ever again? If you've read this all before maybe it is a sign to move on. If he wanted to search it he would. He might even be more tech savy than an old guy..lol0 -
