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

I think you are just looking at the Mavic Cosmic Elite's. The "avant" means front while the "arriere" means rear. From what I understand, these wheels are heavy, but decent wheels. The Mavic's should fit 8, 9 or 10 speed cassettes.
