According to the product specialist

Pros
Ideal climbing wheels because of their low weight.
The shallow rim depth means crosswinds don't really affect the wheels.
Fitted with a wider rim than the previous version, meaning 25 mm tyres now sit nicely on the rim.
The wider U-shape is more aerodynamic than the V-shape of the previous model.
One of the few deep section rims with an aluminium brake track.
Aerodynamic and perfect for flat roads.
Direct, rigid and reliable carbon wheels.
Showstopper braking surface; better control a maximum of braking power.
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.
Cons
No wheelbags included.
-
-
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.
