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.
The Exalith brake track offers excellent stopping power, even in the rain.
Comes with a set of decent Mavic tyres as standard.
The flat, thick spokes give your bike a striking look.
The aluminium brake track offers optimal stopping power under all conditions.
The cup cone bearings are extremely durable and easy to maintain.
Compared to their predecessors, these wheels have far fewer decals, giving them a cleaner look.
Cons
The wheels are harder to controle in hard crosswinds.
The brake pads wear out quicker because of the Exalith.
Sadly, you can't order the wheels without the tyres if you prefer to use your own tyres.
The internal rim width hasn't been updated, and is fairly narrow at 15 mm.
