Anyone riding the current iteration of Mavic CCU's?
Moderator: robbosmans
Looking for a new, do-it-all wheel for all types of courses & conditions. Love the idea of supporting Mavic, as they're so supportive of the US amateur race scene. I realize these are not wide rim tech, although I do think its a bigger factor (at least in terms of subjective feel) with clinchers. I also realize they're way expensive, but I'm cool with that. Finally, I realize there are better tires, which I would use.
If you've ridden these, I'd love your comments, especially regarding stiffness & acceleration. Are they still as good as it gets, or are they a bit overdue for a major update? Thanks.

Thanks, they're gorgeous, but I'm not interested in the 60s. I think the aluminum rim/braking thing is a solution looking for a problem. I don't want to be tied to Mavic tires or 23s at all, really, and I have no qualms with the carbon wheels I've owned (Zipps & Enves) and braking.

Having ridden/owned a decent range of carbon clinchers, including Enve 3.4, 404, Gen III LWs, Roval, etc and the owner of 2013 Cosmic Carbone SLR's I disagree.
And is why I still own the SLR's and none of the others.
