Quality Bicycles, Accessories & Service for Texas Mavic Bicycle Wheels
Mavic makes high performance wheels for professional and amateur racers. They have a complete line of road & mountain bicycle wheels. You can find the complete line-up at the Mavic Web site. Mavic Wheels are excellent quality, but they are not cheap! If you want to try out a pair at no charge, we have a demo pair of Ksyrium SSC SL that we will put on your bicycle and let you ride on for a few days (local riding only). Find out for yourself if they are worth the money.
