According to the product specialist
Pros
| Carbon wheelset with a 50 mm rim height and an impressively low weight of 1300 grams! |
| With a 31 mm outer rim width and a 23 mm inner rim width, these wheels are perfect to fit today's wide tyres. |
| This all-round wheelset performs well in the mountains but is also very efficient at high speeds thanks to extensive testing at the Silverstone Engineering Hub. |
| The carbon spokes further reduce weight and optimise power transfer. |
| The hubs are machined to 0.02 mm tolerances, ensuring that the ceramic bearings have less resistance and last longer. |
| This is Elitewheels' most aerodynamic wheelset. It retains its stability in windy conditions and weighs only 1490 grams! |
| Its 55-65 mm rim profile retains the rigidity of a high rim and combines it with the wind stability of a low rim. |
| The wheels are optimised for 28-30 mm tyres to minimise rolling resistance and air resistance. |
| The Surface hubs have steel bearings. Thanks to their 0.02 mm tolerances, they get close to the rolling resistance and durability of ceramic bearings. |
| The Star Ratchet system engages quickly and results in immediate power transfer. |
| The Shimano Ultegra R8170 C50 wheels are lightweight, reliable and fast! |
| With a weight of 1562 grams, this wheelset is one of the more lightweight ones available. |
| Comfort is achieved by a wide, 21 mm tubeless rim. It's suitable for tyres with a width of 28 mm or more. |
| The wheels are also tubeless compatible. Riding tubeless with latex reduces the risk of punctures. |
| Unparalleled handling in terms of steering, and the sensitivity to wind is very low. The wheels feel like one with the bike. |
| Carbon wheelset with a 65 mm rim height and an impressively low weight of 1460 grams! |
| With a 31 mm outer rim width and a 23 mm inner rim width, these wheels are perfect to fit today's wide tyres. |
| This aerodynamic wheelset has been extensively tested at the Silverstone Engineering Hub and also climbs well due to its low weight. |
| The carbon spokes further reduce weight and optimise power transfer. |
| The hubs are machined to 0.02 mm tolerances, ensuring that the ceramic bearings have less resistance and last longer. |
Cons
| Carbon spokes are slightly more fragile in case of an impact but the set includes four spare spokes! |
| Stainless steel spokes are relatively heavy, but they do provide these wheels with extra lateral rigidity. |
| The Dura Ace 9170 C50 wheels take another 100 grams off the wheels, for the real weightweenies. It's bearing quality is also one more step better. |
| Carbon spokes are slightly more fragile in case of an impact but the set includes four spare spokes! |
