FTS-L - Force Transfer System Light - The '˜FTS Nose' is an extension of the hub body that goes inside the freewheel body. The contact zone between the pawl and the FTS Nose is reinforced by 2 stainless steel inserts, which allows for manufacturing all aluminium, mono-piece hub body. The pawls are centered exactly in the middle of the freewheel body.

H2 - Hammer Hardening - Reinforcement of the area around each nipple hole by hammering to compress the material of this sensitive zone. The rim can be eyeleted on top to even more improve resistance.

QRM - QualitÃ© Roulements Mavic - Sealed cartridge bearings that are serviceable, mounted on a special axle featuring a "bearing support ring" to adjust play.

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

UB Control - UsinÃ© Brut Control - The sidewalls of the rim are milled with a diamond point on a digitally controlled machine after assembly and anodization,
