Because of Mavic, the rims and wheels we ride on are completely different and wholly superior to anything we might have previously imagined.
With the introduction of the Open Pro rim a few years ago, Mavic set a new standard for the strength and lightness we expect out of conventional box-section rims thanks to their Maxtal aluminum alloy composition.
Mavic has long set the agenda for rims and wheels in the bicycle industry, and based on their 2006 offerings, they continue to lead the way.

 Mavic CrossMax SL Disc Review
By drilling only the inner rim wall, Mavic eliminated the need to seal off spoke holes on the outer wall and, consequently, created an airtight seal between tubeless tire and rim (assuming your tubeless tire’s beads are uniform).
Mavic claims that drilling only one rim wall also increases the rim’s overall strength and rigidity.
There are 24 spokes per wheel and both front and rear wheels utilize the tried-and-true, 2-cross lacing configuration (a good thing as this is, after all, a disc brake-specific wheelset that is going to see plenty of torstional loads).

Mavic says they're 10% stronger than their stainless counterparts.
The spokes slip into a slotted sealed cartridge hub, while the other end is threaded into a unique swaged nipple that only penetrates one rim wall (instead of the conventional drilling all the way through).
For their next performance, they're succeeding where others have failed in starting a revolution in tubeless technology - it seems most tire and rim manufacturers are lined up to embrace Mavic's UST system for next year, and Mavic is already one step ahead with a $350.
