According to the product specialist

Pros
The ideal choice if you are not familiar with carbon wheels: thanks to the 30 day money back guarantee you can try them out without any obligation.
Thanks to the aluminium braking edges on these carbon wheels you always have good braking power, even in wet weather.
The aerodynamic U-shaped rims are not wind sensitive and will keep your bike up to speed more easily.
These wheels do not have a maximum rider weight, so they can take a beating and handle heavier or stronger riders well.
Tubeless Ready (TLR) rims allow for quick conversion to a tubeless setup. If you do get a puncture, the hole is immediately filled by the latex in the tyre.
This wheel set is the best available choice among aluminium wheels with its extremely low weight of 1493 grams and its excellent DT240S hubs.
The PR 1400 DICUT 21 OXiC wheels have gorgeous features such as the all black brake tracks and diamond shaped hubs.
The ceramic OXiC brake track increases brake performance and is subject to a lower degree of wear than regular aluminium brake tracks.
With their low weight and 21mm rims these wheels are excellent for climbing and very suitable for all-round use
These mid-height Fulcrum Racing 4 wheels offer more rigidity than the Fulcrum Racing 3 wheels.
Good power transmission thanks to the high flange and shorter spokes in the rear wheel.
Reduced risk of spoke fractures or blows in the wheels and therefore suitable for heavier riders with power in the legs.
The rim width of 17 mm makes it possible to fit tires of 25 mm or wider for more comfort.
The 35 mm high rim and flat spokes give you an aerodynamic advantage and increased stability in crosswinds.
Cons
Not a full carbon wheel, but rather an aluminium wheel with a carbon cover to enhance the aerodynamics.
For a DT Swiss wheel set with carbon rims the PRC series is recommended.
If you often ride on rough, sandy surfaces there is a chance that the black OXiC brake track may eventually show signs of wear.
The weight, on the other hand, is slightly higher compared to the Fulcrum Racing 3.
Not suitable for tubeless riding.
