I got hold of a pair of wheels with Mavic CXP 10 rims that are built up onto road hubs with gears (i.e. running brakes on them). Does anyone know if they are meant to be run with brakes on them? They don't have an obvious braking rim and aren't machined at all. Also, Mavic don't make them anymore so I'm finding it a little hard to find out info about them.

(This isn't a pic of one of the actual rims, but this is what they look like - worn from braking.)
*sorry about the massive picture
