According to the product specialist

Pros
These Zipp wheels will make any bike look better.
High aerodynamic advantage due to the 82 mm deep rim.
Side winds have a relatively small effect on the wheels because of their rounded shape and ABCL dimples on the rim.
All-round deployable 50mm high carbon wheels for rim brakes with a low weight of 1615g.
The rim width of 28mm gives a huge aerodynamic advantage and feels stable in the wind.
Strong and durable Pilar straight-pull spokes for instant power transfer and less chance of spoke breakage.
The set uses semi-ceramic bearings for low rolling resistance and maximum wattage gains.
The internal rim width of 17mm allows riding tyres of 23-33mm.
The Campagnolo Bora WTO 45 wheels are of top quality and excel in aerodynamics, weight and stiffness.
The AC3 brake rim ensures good braking performance in all conditions comparable to aluminium rims.
The 19mm internal rim width makes it possible to ride with outer tubes from 23 to 30 mm. The wide tyres provide more comfort and low rolling resistance.
The G3 spoke pattern saves weight by using fewer spokes and provides better power transfer.
The 2-Way Fit rim profile allows for both tubeless and folding tyres and inner tubes.
Cons
-
The internal rim width of 17mm lags slightly behind the trends but allows 23mm to be fitted.
For an even more aerodynamic set, you should take a look at the Campagnolo Bora WTO 60 wheels.
The carbon braking surface makes this wheel less suitable for long mountain descents with the risk of a blowout or rim deformation.
