According to the product specialist
Pros
| Aerodynamically the highest quality available on the market. |
| Direct power transmission through the high rims and short spokes. |
| Showstopper braking surface; better control and maximum stopping power. |
| 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. |
Cons
| The wheels are harder to controle in hard crosswinds. |
