In defence of (some) Mavic wheels; I have a pair of Kysrium SL, they have the aerodynamics of a housebrick and are not featherweight. But, they have a great redeeming quality, they refuse to die. They remain my holiday wheel of choice where spares don't exist. They have survived the worst roads of four Continents and Sussex, I can't remember ever truing them.
