Mavic Crossride wheels, any good?

[spiderpig]

I need a replacement rear wheel for my 26" dually and looking at the Mavic Crossride series.

Have Mavic Crossmax on it at the moment but the rear has finally had enough after alot of use in 8 years.

Anyone used these wheels, its just for general XC duties and its my 2nd bike so not ridden everday etc.

Pretty heavy and flexy. I ran them for a while on a bike I bought but wasn't particularly impressed. Free hub bodies wear out bushes pretty quickly also, I believe.
There's better out there for not much more money.

O.k Found a set for $100 which i thought was pretty good value?

What would you suggest that its better out there for not much more money?

For $100, if in good nick, just as second bike set, probably a good option actually, if not paying post. Check that free hub isn't sloppy, keep them serviced and go for it.

No worries will do, local pickup so all good. They are in good nic apparently and i can use bits out of my old rear wheel/hub i guess too if i need to.
