Mavic Ksyrium SL Heritage Rim Brake Wheelset 

The Mavic Ksyrium SL Heritage Rim Brake Wheelset brings together timeless road bike aesthetics and modern performance engineering in one of the most respected alloy wheel platforms ever produced. Designed for riders who appreciate the precision and simplicity of rim brakes, this wheelset delivers a responsive, lightweight ride feel while maintaining the durability and reliability Mavic is known for. The Heritage finish adds a classic, understated look that pairs perfectly with both modern and traditional road frames.

Constructed from Mavic’s exclusive Maxtal aluminium alloy, the 22 mm deep rims provide an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, helping reduce rotational mass for quicker acceleration and smoother climbing. The Fore tapeless tubeless technology removes the need for rim tape, saving weight while increasing rim stiffness and long-term durability. With a 19 mm internal width and UST Tubeless Ready compatibility, riders benefit from improved grip, lower rolling resistance, and a reduced risk of punctures whether running tubeless or standard clincher tyres.

At the centre of the wheelset, Mavic’s Infinity hub platform works alongside the Instant Drive 360 freewheel system to ensure fast engagement and efficient power transfer with minimal friction. Stainless steel aero spokes combined with Isopulse lacing balance spoke tension evenly across the wheel, improving stability under hard efforts, sprinting, and climbing. Sealed cartridge bearings with automatic preload adjustment keep maintenance low while delivering smooth, consistent rotation over thousands of kilometres.

Ideal for performance-focused road cyclists who want a lightweight alloy alternative to carbon, the Ksyrium SL Heritage wheelset offers speed, stiffness, and everyday practicality in a clean, classic package. It’s a premium upgrade for any quick-release rim brake road bike, equally at home on fast training rides, gran fondos, or weekend racing.
