According to the product specialist

Pros
The Campagnolo Khamsin is an affordable, solid wheelset.
G3 spoke pattern in the rear wheel ensures good pressure distribution and power transmission.
Available in version with Campagnolo or Shimano body so it doesn't matter what groupset you ride.
The internal rim width of 17mm ensures that wider tyres of 25mm fit better which benefits rolling resistance.
The Shimano WH-RS300 is a comfortable wheelset.
Easy to maintain bearings thanks to the smooth cup-conus system.
Comes with straight pull spokes, which have a lower chance of snapping than j-bend spokes.
Cons
At over 1800 grams, the Khamsin is not the lightest wheelset in its class.
Relatively heavy, but this is normal for a wheelset in this price range.
