After an agonising wait of only 2 days, I just took delivery of a set of decidedly non retro 2009 Mavic Crossmax wheels from Dean.
Exactly as described, which is to say they've done a few miles, they have a few light chips and scratches, but they run true and have buttery smooth bearings. Looking forward to riding them later today...
They are also very well packaged, in a bombproof box that will be recycled once I've replaced the bearings in my four banger wheels.
