Gday,

i was wnodering if anyone knows wether mavic has a bolt up axle option for their crossmax sx rims? i need a little more stiffnes from the rear triangle on my bike and this seems a good way to do it.

cheers

According to the Mavic manual for the 09 SX the rear hub has 9.5mm inserts in a 12mm hub to allow the use of a 9mm QR. These are part # 996 942 01. Just like the 9mm front adapters that allow you to run either 15mm or 9mm axles. For the rear axle they only mention a QR, BX 601 part # M40141 which is the same part number as the QR on my 2010 STs. There is no comment of a specific axle assembly available from Mavic that I could find but if removing the adapters gives a 12mm hole through the axle then your lbs should be able to fix you up with a 12mm solid axle.
