FTS-L
Force Transfer System Light. Reinforcement of key transmission components: the contact area between the pawl and the hub body is reinforced by 2 stainless steel inserts, which allows the use of a 100 percent aluminum hub body: The entire hub is extremely lightweight and strong Greater efficiency due to better transmission of efforts on the entire wheel.

QRM
Qualite de Roulements Mavic. Mavic only uses high quality sealed cartridge bearings. On QRM wheels, they provide high durability thanks to double sealing (2RS or LLU) as well as high efficiency thanks to C3 internal clearance (low play, tight tolerances).

Self Lock
The special shape of the spoke end, on the thread, makes it impossible to loosen.The spokes stays tightly screwed into the nipple, no tension loss is occuring. As a benefit, the wheel keeps its original roundness for a long time and does not get out of true.

H2
Hammer Hardening. Local strenghtening of the rim in the area where the spokes exert the greatest stress. This improves rim's life expectancy and resistance to micro cracking.

UB Control
Usine Brut Control. The braking surfaces are milled to improve braking friction and eliminate shuddering.
