  1. Calling wheelbuilder experts - anyone know Mavic's recommended spoke tension for CXP30s and CXP33s?? I've emailed the French a couple of times and so far they've been as helpful as they heve been in the gulf.

    front 90kg-110kg, rear freewheel side 90kg-110kg. freewheel side tension is about 70% higher than OFW side. start with about 40kg-60kg on all spokes, true the wheel, push down on the rim (from both sides several times) for the spokes to settle (you will hear cracking noises but don't worry) true the wheel again, then raise the tension, push down on the rim again, true the wheel and you're done. don't call mavic, they're [censored] and only give infos to dealers. call a mavic dealer, they have acces to mavics tech website.
