I've had several sets of Mavic's and every one has problems keeping the rear hub bearing preload with the correct tension. Do they still have the same system which is just a nut on the non drive side of the axle? It just had an O ring on the inside which was supposed to stop it coming loose.
Apart from that I highly rated the old Mavic Crossmax SX, light, strong, nice handling, easy tubeless. Nice to see then back in the game.
Didn't DT do a tubeless run years ago, Tricon or something like that. It used inserts in the rim wall rather than screwed nipples.i remember it looking interesting.
