I have Crossmax enduro disc wheelset. I've been using them for 6 months and so far, I haven't had any problems. They are perfectly true, no hub problems (although some say mavic hubs are not good), or anything.
The reason I want to change is the 400 grams of weight advantage of the Olympic ZTRs. For me, it's a big difference. I'm not sure about the quality of those rims though. I know that some rim manufacturer fabricates the rims for Stan, but I don't know which manufacturer that is. If I buy the Stan's wheelset would it be like a step down in terms of quality, and durability?
What would you guys do, keep the Mavics, or get the Olympic wheelset?
