– Fore: Stiffer and stronger Instead of being drilled, the lower rim bridge is pushed up on the inside, then threaded to enable the spoke nipples to be directly screwed in it, leaving the upper rim bridge intact.
– FTS-L: Force Transfer System Light Reinforcement of key transmission components: the contact area between the pawl and the hub body is reinforced by 2 stainless steel inserts, which allows the use of a 100% aluminum hub body.
– PowerLink: Low rolling resistance A rear tyre, whether a clincher or a tubular, must fully liberate the wheel’s ability to transfer power and generate speed. Therefore, PowerLink tyres are optimized for rear wheel use, by minimizing the rolling resistance.
– QRM+: Qualité de Roulements Mavic + Our most demanding level. Those cartridge bearings are of course double sealed with C3 internal clearance, and toped with a micro-adjustability system.
– TgMAX: Maximum Glass Transition Temperature TgMAX technology consists in laying up several types of high technology resins, then fixing them using a proprietary heat treatment process and an aluminum colling insert to achieve the highest possible resistance to braking heat.

Mavic Cosmic Carbon 40 wheels
Surprisingly, the Cosmic Carbon 40 Cs are Mavic’s first ever carbon fibre clincher wheels. They’re fast and stiff, with dependable braking performance, but the high price is hard to digest and they’re not especially light.
There’s a huge appetite for carbon clinchers these days; people want the looks and speed of carbon deep-section wheels, but with the convenience of clincher tyres.
Alloy and carbon fibre construction
The biggest issue though with carbon clincher wheels, and all carbon wheels for that matter, is heat generated when braking. Drag the brakes long and hard enough, and you’ll soon heat up the carbon and resin mix to the point that they could fail. And that doesn’t tend to happen without fairly catastrophic results.
Mavic has a novel solution. Where the likes of Zipp, Enve and Reynolds use a 100% carbon fibre rim, Mavic has developed an alloy extrusion wrapped with a carbon fibre shell, and injected the cavity with foam. Mavic has lots of expertise with alloy rims, and knows that aluminium is better at dissipating heat than carbon, so felt this was the best approach.
Very simply, this alloy rim bed insert acts like a sort of heat sink, drawing the heat away from the carbon braking surface. That’s not all. The alloy rim core adds structural integrity to the rim, which leads to a truer rim that should avoid the pulsating that can sometimes occur with one-piece carbon rims. Durability and stiffness are other benefits of this manufacturing approach too.
This alloy core is wrapped with a 40mm carbon fibre rim. The brake track is then finished with Mavic’s proprietary heat treatment process, involving two types of resin in the braking surface. It calls this TgMAX technology, and claims the Tg point (glass transition temperature is the point at which the resin gets hot enough to revert to its liquid state) is able to exceed 250°C. They tested this with a 100kg rider on a 10km downhill.
Not only does Mavic claim this creates reliable and consistent braking performance, and shorter stopping distances, in the dry, but it also claims much better performance in the wet, too.
The 40mm deep rim has a V-shape profile with a 19mm wide rim bed. Mavic’s Fore technology uses threaded inserts at the rim, there are no spoke holes in the rim bed, and bladed aero double butted spokes connect the rims to carbon-bodied hubs. There are 20 radially laced spokes (2-cross on the rear driveside) in each wheel.
No hidden nipples mean you don’t need to remove the tyre and rim tape to adjust the spoke tension here. The hubs aren’t anything to get excited about, they’re the same as used on other Cosmic wheels in their range. Inside the hubs are Mavic’s QRM+ bearings. The bearing preload can be adjusted without taking the wheels out of the bike.
Mavic continues to push its concept of a wheel-tyre system, and supplies the wheels pre-fitted with a pair of its own tyres, Pro Griplink on the front and Powerlink on the rear, front- and rear-specific tyres. I’ve been impressed with Mavic’s own tyres and these are pretty good, but there are better aftermarket tyres available.
The wheels weigh 1,596g (front: 687g, rear: 882g) on the road.cc scales that don’t lie. That’s a little more than the claimed 1,545g. Look at the competition though and the Mavic wheels, it has to be said, don’t fare so well: a pair of Zipp 303 Firecrest wheels is a claimed 1,475g. However, the Mavics are significantly cheaper than £2,300 retail price of the Zipp wheels. Or you could throw in the recently reviewed Reynolds Aero 58 clincher wheels, with a 1,601g weight and £2,100 price.
The ride: Fast and consistent braking performance
To put the wheels through their paces, I’ve been riding them constantly as everyday wheels over the past six months or so, racking up thousands of kilometres on them. Riding them in the pouring rain, down muddy tracks, bashing through potholes. And through it all, they’ve not put a foot wrong, they’ve been solidly reliable and durable. I’d half expected a few blemishes to be revealed in that time, but no, nothing.
As for the braking performance, well it’s very good. I’ve yet to ride a carbon fibre wheel that has amazing braking performance, it still feels just too much of a compromise. While I don’t think Mavic has nailed it, they’ve produced a wheel with more consistent, predictable and reliable braking than a lot of carbon clinchers currently available.
There’s plenty of bite when you pull hard on the lever. You can slow down on a steep descent pretty quickly if you need to, but like most carbon wheels, you do need to plan ahead a bit more than you don on alloy rims. When you really need to, the Mavic’s quickly scrub off speed, you can rely on them, have confidence in them.
The best aspect of the braking performance is they are smooth and progressive, there’s no snatching or pulsating feedback through the brake levers, and in that regard they feel a bit like an alloy wheel. Mavic claim they’re good in the wet, and they are, but there’s the same drop off in retardation you get from most carbon wheels in the wet.
In my testing they do deal with heat well. I have more confidence dragging the brakes or working them hard on a descent if I really have to, compared to other wheels I’ve ridden. That testing hasn’t included a trip to the Alps or anywhere with a really long descent, though.
As for speed, well put simply that is hard to draw a conclusion on. road.cc doesn’t have a wind tunnel for me to do some comparative testing, so I’ll just leave you with my impression that I found them nippy and quick. Clearly they don’t have the on-trend wide and bulbous rim shape that seems to be prevalent in the wheel market, but they felt fast compared to other carbon wheels and against a regular alloy wheel, but the differences we’re talking about are marginal at best. You’re not suddenly going to travel 5kph quicker by bolting these wheels into your bike.
While they don’t have that sensational sense of speed that some deeper section carbon wheels give a bike, the upside of the 40mm rim depth is that they handle a range of cross-winds without any adverse effects. They’re very stable with a direct side-wind. I’m a light rider and really notice cross-winds and I usually fear riding deep-section wheels in windy conditions, but in the recent storms I have been fine on these.
What they might lack in speed, they make up for in responsiveness. They respond far more keenly than most deeper section wheels, there’s none of the lag or flex that some deep section carbon wheels exhibit when being pushed hard. Sling them about the road, get out of the saddle and heave on the bars, and they track sharp and clean. They noticeably lifted the handling performance of every bike I tried them in too.
They’re a delight to push through corners as well, where that stiffness really comes into play. Happily, they’re quite controlled over rough roads and didn’t produce a harsh ride at all. They’re also a very quiet set of wheels; some deep section carbon wheels can create quite a backdrop of whooshing noises. These didn’t, though they were a bit noisy during braking at first, but that soon disappeared.
A slight drawback that will be of more concern to some people is the 19mm internal rim width, which is narrow compared to what a lot of the other wheel manufacturers are leaning towards. They’re not designed with wide tyres in mind, but I had good results with a 23mm tyre fitted.
Verdict
Great wheels with excellent durability and a very high level of stiffness contributing to a responsive ride, and the braking performance is top notch too. Not the lightest and certainly not cheap though.

Mavic Carbone 40 Elite Wheelset Review and Comparison
By Jim Weaver, Service Manager
Fit Werx, Waitsfield, VT
Those who have been looking for an aerodynamic carbon rimmed clincher wheelset know that the price of admission for quality options is not low. While inexpensive ($1,500 or less) carbon clinchers can be found, for the most part, these are unknown brands, with generic rims purchased from a generic carbon factory in Asia and then built-up with an equally generic hub. Testing and quality control do not tend to be the hallmark of such wheels. We have seen that the quality and durability of many such wheels can be dubious and, in our experience, wheels are not a good place to be messing around when it comes to potential failure points.
The major carbon wheel manufacturers, such as Corima, Zipp, Enve, Reynolds, HED, et al, make great wheels. The cost of full carbon clincher wheelsets from these brands is usually upwards of $2,700 for a set. One name that was notably absent from the list of carbon clincher wheel producers was the biggest wheel maker on earth – Mavic. Historically, Mavic was somewhat reluctant to jump into the carbon rim market, due to their dissatisfaction with existing braking and heat dissipation technology. It is no secret that most carbon rims do not brake as consistently across weather conditions as alloy rims, although the major manufacturers have been aggressively addressing this problem and improvements have been made. Heat dissipation from braking has been another bugaboo for carbon rims and can cause problems in extreme conditions. Again, the major carbon wheel manufacturers have made great strides on this front, but Mavic was still not satisfied and did not release a carbon clincher equipped wheelset – leaving their full carbon rims, like those found in the Mavic Cosmic Carbone Ultimate, to tubular users only. However, last season, Mavic introduced a new carbon clincher based rim design in the clincher version of the Mavic Cosmic CXR 60 C wheels and later the Cosmic Carbone 40 C. These wheels used Mavic’s TGMax hybrid carbon clincher rim construction and were designed to compete with offerings from all the names above. Like those other offerings, prices started over $2700 a pair. However, for 2015 there was a new offering in Mavic’s line – one that received little press and Mavic has barely talked about, but is arguably one of the most compelling new carbon clincher wheels on the market – the Mavic Carbone 40 Elite C. The Mavic Carbone 40 Elite new wheelset has an MSRP of $2,100, including tires and tubes, thus hitting a price point below the high quality carbon clincher competition. The Mavic Carbone 40 Elite also offers the same TGMax rim technology as found in the Mavic Cosmic Carbone 40 C and Mavic CXR 60 C wheels and weighs less than wheels costing almost $1000 more. A reputable, name brand carbon clincher for what is effectively below $2000 (subtract the tires and tubes) and is not only not a boat anchor, but is actually pretty light? Now you have our attention Mavic.
So, what is Mavic TGMax? The 40mm deep rim of the Mavic Cosmic Carbone 40 Elite is actually a unique combination of an aluminum alloy exo-skeletal system surrounded by carbon fiber. The main body of the rim is carbon fiber that is bonded to an aluminum reinforced rim bed. This rim bed is constructed of Mavic’s proprietary Maxtal aluminum alloy, stronger than the usual 6061 aluminum used in many alloy rims, and the same alloy that Mavic has used in their best alloy wheels for years. This alloy rim “liner” allows the tire bead to seat into metal for strength. The heat from the carbon fiber brake surface is thus transferred to the allow rim bed, where it is more effectively dissipated by the aluminum. The result is a rim that brakes better than most carbon rims, while avoiding the potential problems of heat build-up.
Many Mavic alloy rims essentially consist of two layers, one being the bed where the tire mounts, and the other being the outer shell where the spokes thread into the rim. When you look at a Mavic rim, such as the Ksyrium SL or R-SYS, without the tire mounted, you will not find the spoke holes that you will find on the vast majority of other rims. The result is that rim strength per weight is arguably stronger. The tire bed on the Mavic Carbone 40 Elite is molded in this same way. The rim is constructed around an alloy seat where the spokes enter the rim, so that the spokes thread into this alloy seat. The remainder of the rim, and the structural support of the rim, is formed from 3K carbon fiber. The rim is filled with a high-density foam and this foam dampens road noise that can be so annoying on many hollow carbon rims, while at the same time adding strength and stiffness to the rim. As with other rims that use this type of foam (like Corima), the rim should be very resistant to lateral flexing, a problem that plagues some carbon rims.
The Mavic Carbone 40 Elite wheels are built using straight-pull, bladed, double-butted steel spokes. The front wheel has 16 spokes, the rear 20. The front wheel spokes are laced radially. The rear spokes are laced radially on the non-drive side, and in a 1 cross pattern on the drive side. The hubs are designed so in the unlikely event of a broken spoke, replacement is quite easy, with very minimal hub disassembly. The way that the spokes thread into the rim also eases spoke replacement, and avoids that nasty problem of loose spoke nipples getting “lost” inside a rim. The bearing preload on the hubs is adjustable, the same as with many other Mavic wheels.
As with all new Mavic wheels, the Mavic Carbone 40 Elite wheels come with tires, in this case the Mavic Yksion Pro Powerlink in the rear, and the Mavic Pro Griplink in the front. Mavic believes that the tire and wheel work as a system, and thus they equip most of their wheels with tires designed specifically to work optimally with the rest of the wheel system. For 2015, Mavic has revised their tire design (and changed the manufacturing process) to lower rolling resistance, a concern that has plagued their tires in the past. So, a pair of 190 gram, high quality tires and tubes is included in the price of the wheels – arguably a $170 value.
I have spoken with riders who are concerned about the strength of carbon rims, feeling that they may be fragile. Really, this is not the case. High quality carbon rims are no less durable than alloy rims; if you hit something hard enough to damage a quality carbon rim, you would also damage an alloy rim. Like anything, you tend to get what you pay for and a cheap carbon rim will likely not produce similar results, but with quality carbon it will. This being said, for those riders for whom carbon rim durability is a concern, the Maxtal rim bed should allay these fears as they have an aluminum sub-structure throughout. Mavic wheels are durable in general and their hybrid carbon rims maintain this tradition and Mavic hubs are renowned for their durability and serviceability. I can confidently say that the Mavic Carbone Elite 40 wheels will be a comfortable, fast, and durable wheelset in the long-term.
So how does this wheelset compare to other carbon clincher wheels on the market? Looking simply at weight, the Mavic Carbone 40 Elite weighs in at 1,540 grams on the scale we have here in the shop. For an aero carbon clincher wheelset, the weight of the Mavic Carbone 40 Elite is not only competitive, but impressive. For example, a set of Zipp 303 Firecrest clincher wheels, 5 mm deeper, weigh in at 1,570 grams, and cost $2,725. A set of Enve 3.4 carbon clinchers, built with DT Swiss 240 hubs, weighs in 58 grams less than the Mavic Carbone 40 Elite, but they cost $2,900 and the front rim is not as deep. So, based simply on weight, the Mavic’s are a true bargain. Interestingly, one of the closest comparable wheels to the Mavic Carbone 40 Elite wheels is Mavic’s own Carbone 40 C wheelset at $2750. The Carbone 40 C wheelset has far more similarities than differences to the Mavic Carbone 40 Elite wheels. The rim and spoke configuration is the same and the only difference of note is that the hubs of the Mavic Carbone 40 C has a carbon/alloy hub instead of the full alloy hub shell of the Mavic Carbone 40 C Elite wheels. How does this matter? It doesn’t. Unless you simply desire the carbon fiber look of the Mavic Carbone 40 C, the Mavic Carbone 40 Elite offers all the performance and weight (the alloy hub equipped Carbone 40 C actually weighed 5 grams less than the carbon hub equipped version!) for $650 less. This makes for an extremely compelling story in the Mavic Carbone Elite 40 C – quite possible the true “sleeper carbon wheel” of 2015.
All in all, the Mavic Carbone 40 Elite is a very attractive wheelset. Yes, a Zipp carbon clincher might be a hair more aero, Corima’s may provide a better ride quality, and Enve makes a great all-rounder, giving you the option of DT Swiss or Chris King hubs. But, if spending close to $3,000 for carbon wheels is out of your range, the Mavic Carbone 40 Elites offer a lot of value and actually compete quite well with many of some of the most respected carbon clinchers in the business. Conversely, for just a little more than the “bottom feeder” brands on the market, you can get a wheel that is supported by a truly respected and proven brand name. In my opinion, the Mavic Carbone 40 Elite are a really exciting wheel. They not only serve the entry level full carbon rim shopper looking for a versatile wheel extremely well, but they also offer the higher tier level rider a lower priced alternative that doesn’t compromise performance, weight or ride quality in the price.

After the first few weeks of use, the whole bike will settle down. As a result, the gears may need tweaking, some nuts and bolts may need tightening and you may well need to check the adjustment of the saddle and handlebars.

Cable stretch tends to occur shortly after a new bike has been ridden a few times. A rear derailleur that we have tuned to hit every gear, nicely and quietly, may now not be making each shift causing a sensation and sound of “being in between gears”. Generally you may have to shift up, or shift down a couple times to quiet it down and settle the derailleur into a “happy gear”. A front derailleur may no longer want to shift all the way onto the big ring or will require a much firmer push to get it there.It is advisable to get the cable tension adjusted as soon as this happens either by your local bike shop. This tune up is considered a necessary part of any bicycles maintenance schedule and as such should not be ignored.Your brakes will also be affected by cable stretch (provided of course that they are NOT hydraulic in which case this does not apply). The symptom here is that they usually start to feel quite loose. i.e. you have to pull the lever much further back or harder in order to get the same stopping power you once had. This is partly why new bikes come with a first free service. If your brakes start feeling a little spongy after a few weeks, you can adjust them at the barrel or the clamp or ask a mechanic at your local bike shop to do it for you.New disc brakes won’t deliver their full power until the rotor and pads have bedded in.SRAM has a really good guide for bedding in disc brakes:“Accelerate the bike to a moderate speed and then firmly applying the brakes until you are at walking speed. Repeat this process 20 times. Then accelerate the bike to a faster speed and apply the brakes until you are at walking speed. Repeat this process ten times. It’s important that during this process you never come to a complete stop or lock up the wheels at any point.”Doing this process should drastically improve the performance of your brakes and prepare them for many happy rides.Check the cranks and crank bolts or nut for tightness; grab a crank arm in each hand and try to wiggle them to check for looseness. If there is play in the cranks, the nuts or bolts may need to be tightened. Cranks should be checked after every ride for the first week.A loose headset can be diagnosed by turning the front wheel to point left or right, holding the front brake on, and then rocking the bike backwards and forwards. Hold your fingers between the stem and the frame. Any movement indicates that you need to tighten the headset.Check your seat post is not loose and that you have not exceeded the limit marked on the seat post. Once you have checked these, use an allen key to tighten the seat post clamp. Check the seat is secure by giving it another check once you have finished.Check that your front wheel and stem do not move independently, and that your handlebar clamp bolts are tight. Perform this check by standing in front of the bike, holding the front wheel between your knees, and twisting the handlebars. You can prevent any movement by tightening the stem bolts and the handlebar clamp with an allen key.Keeping your mountain bike’s suspension maintained is one of the best ways to ensure you’re getting all the performance you can out of your bike. Plus, giving your fork and shock a few seconds of attention here and there can prevent costly repairs or even replacements.Dirt is the number one enemy of suspension. After every ride make sure to wipe the seal area and stanchions of your fork and shock. Wipe in a horizontal motion, not vertical as you don’t want to force any debris towards the seals.Every few rides double check that your suspension sag is correct, as well as your rebound and compression adjustments. If something has changed, or the adjustments aren’t working as before, some maintenance is likely due.

7/10 Good
Bikes in this range are well-loved and have moderate wear. While the frame and wheels will have cosmetic scuffs, scratches, and/or paint loss, they will not be structurally damaged. Aluminum, steel, and titanium frames may have minor dents. Carbon frames may have been previously damaged, but have been professionally repaired and are structurally sound. Aluminum rims may have minor dents. The drivetrain has moderate to heavy wear. Handlebars, stem, derailleurs, and levers show moderate scuffing or scratches, and the saddle might have slight tears. If the bike has suspension, those components will have scratches and scuffs. The stanchions may have small scratches.
