Technologies:
Maxtal: Exclusive to Mavic. An aluminium alloy that is 30% more resistant than a 6106 alloy, for lighter and stronger rims.
SUP: Soudé Usiné Process. After bending, the rim joint is arc welded. The welded seam is then milled for a smooth finish. A welded and milled rim joint is extremely strong, eliminates shuddering when braking, and offers superior wheel balance.

Solid, stiff, ultra-light. Great quality welded and pinned. Narrow though so if you run high volume tyres (2.2" and up) look elsewhere as the tyre will roll a bit in the turns, but as an xc rim its great and very tough.
