Mavic Deemax DH MX Wheelset - Limited Edition

Charge harder with the Deemax DH MX Wheelset—mullet setup built for aggressive downhill terrain

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"The Deemax DH MX is my go-to gravity wheelset. I love the 29 front for stability and the 27.5 rear for how playful it feels through corners. It’s built tough, has that unmistakable yellow, and it’s super easy to service when things get rowdy."

When we’re dropping into the steepest lines and the most punishing trails, the Deemax DH MX Wheelset gives us the confidence to stay off the brakes and focus on the ride. Built with a mixed-wheel design—29in up front for smoother rollover and a 27.5in rear for agile handling—this setup is tuned for control and flow across modern downhill terrain.

Mavic’s 30mm-wide Maxtal rims are welded for strength and shaped to absorb big hits, while 28 J-bend steel spokes offer the right blend of stiffness and forgiveness. The Instant Drive 360 freehub ensures lightning-fast engagement, and the included service parts let us handle trailside fixes without the stress. Whether we’re hammering bike park laps or pushing personal limits on rough, technical descents, this wheelset is ready for everything gravity riding throws at it.
