Considering these were the go to upgrade for many years can anyone advise why the rim version is no longer available to buy?

Not really sure. Seem to remember reading that as part of the survival package/ takeover they were simplifying their product range. Whether the elites (rim version) were part of this or if it's just down to the ongoing component shortages worldwide is anyone's guess. Have you tried to contact them?0

30 seconds googling and they have them at Hargroves in stock

The Elites no longer appear on the Mavic page so they don't make that particular model anymore. It looks like the Ksyrium S is the equivalent (ish) and is available in both rim and disc brake versionsredvision said:Not really sure.

if they are that desperate for them they could, oh I don't know, always pick up the telephone and ask..The camera down the willy isn't anything like as bad as it sounds.

Is captain only a high rank in the navy then?
Personally I'd like to be less obvious than captain.0 -
Major annoyance? Private dancer? General disappointment?2

He wants the rim brake version.
Personally I'd be looking on fleabay. If it is on there it actually exists (assuming legitimate seller) and when I was in the market a couple of months ago there were lots of ex demo and other basically new wheelsets on there.0 -
have these then

To be fair to the OP, neither Hargroves or Leisure Lakes actually have the wheels in stock, those must be old pages that have not been deleted. I get this a lot when searching for products via google, rather than direct searches on the retailer website.

MattFalle every link you have posted is for a different variant of the wheelset! And so aggressive….1
-

-

not angry, just honest..The camera down the willy isn't anything like as bad as it sounds.

Clementine at Alltricks en Grance has them as them but you probably can't get them off her because farage and johnson and their bunch of racist small minded bigoted tossers ruined that for you.
you got blue passports but no wheels, so who's laughing now, eh?.The camera down the willy isn't anything like as bad as it sounds.

If you mean second hand, then in all likelihood because they are popular, which means they are liked, so retained not sold.0
-
Because Mavic don't make them anymore is the only answer the op actually needs.0

apart from at loads of places it seems..

except these are going to be NOS as Mavic do not sell them anymore (the specific model that the OP noted). They are also obviously available outside of retailers, on ebay etc. Plenty of goods no longer "available" can be purchased in this way but there probably won't be any manufacturers warranty. You could likely purchase a zero miles Austin Allegro from a garage that has one tucked away but if someone asked "Is an Austin Allegro still available to buy?" then the answer really is no.MattFalle said:apart from at loads of places it seems.
OP might have made their query clearer, having had a search and found Mavic / their retailers no longer listing the wheels for sale, that they wanted a brand new pair of wheels.
I was having a random search of ebay last night and started looking for Principia frames as I have one (a Rex e which I love and really don't need a new frame). There are 1 or 2 listed as 'new' but they aren't made any more so buying one from ebay, even from an ebay shop would, to me, be like buying from a private seller with regards any real warranty were there to be any issues in a few months time. So they are available but lacking the usual safeguards attributed to new goods.0 -

There must be some real sickos about if they're after an Austin Allegro.
