According to the product specialist
Pros
| The Mantel R50 TLR wheelset is light (1540 grams) and aerodynamic, and competes with many popular wheel brands. |
| Aerodynamics tests have revealed that the Mantel R50D wheels are more aerodynamic than the widely used 2019 Zipp Firecrest Carbon 303. |
| Sleek looks on any road or cyclocross bike with its subtle and neutral sticker design that can be matched with any frame colour. |
| Straight pull spokes for optimal stiffness and a reduced risk of spoke breakage. |
| Internal spoke nipples for optimised aerodynamics. |
| 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. |
| Ultegra's level of quality is well known, as you can see in these wheels: reliable bearings, straightpull spokes, lightweight. |
| These bearings are easy to maintain thanks to the smoothly running cup-conus system. Runs fantastically and is more durable than industrial bearings. |
| Can be used with tubes and tubeless! |
| The low weight of 1595 grams offers numerous advantages, such as easier acceleration after a turn and faster uphill riding. |
| Excellent all-round wheelset because of their balance between rigidity, weight, and rim depth. |
| Good power transfer thanks to the G3 spoke pattern, the high flange and shorter spokes in the rear wheel. |
| These wheels are very popular because of their extremely interesting price/performance ratio and are the counterpart to the Fulcrum Racing 3 at a more interesting price level. |
| Multi-purpose from training to racing, both in hilly terrain and on flat roads. |
Cons
| The carbon braking surface makes this wheel less suitable for long mountain descents with the risk of a blowout or rim deformation. |
| Not convertible to Sram XDR or Campagnolo from 2023 onwards. |
| The internal rim width of 17mm lags slightly behind the trends but allows 23mm to be fitted. |
| This wheelset's code doesn't immediately indicate Ultegra, but its quality is at Ultegra level. |
| The larger distance between the individual spokes makes it harder to true the wheel. |
