Polar diagram VR/HR (spoke deflection in mm; red: right side, blue: left side)
Spoke tension deviation fron. left: 8 %, fron. right: 11 %, hi. left: 11 %, hi. right: 5 %
Concentricity/centredness new condition (points/max. points) 6/10
Resistance to overload (points/max. points) 9/10
Conclusion Mavic continues to rely on fewer but thicker aluminium spokes combined with a slightly wider tubeless rim for the first time. Low spread in spoke tension, good stiffness, lots of accessories.
