Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Mavic SSC SL

I just got a new set of Ksyriums and the rear hub clicks very loudly. Does anyone know if thats normal for a new wheelset?

Yes, my Cosmic Carbones were very clickity at first, they're just starting to get quieter with 150 miles on them. It's becoming less obnoxious.

I agree, The Mavic's have a clicking almost like a snapping noise to it. I sort of like it

I also have the wheelset of which you speak. After a few years you will become accustomed to it.
