According to the product specialist

Pros
Nice sound due to the hollow rim structure.
The wheels are tubeless ready, so you can use them without inner tubes.
These wheels have no maximum rider weight; thus super strong!
These wheels are very fast and aerodynamic thanks to the 50 mm high Bontrager D3 profile.
These wheels have a good price/quality ratio.
These Bontrager wheels are tubeless-ready. In no time you can ride without an inner tube, which improves the weight, grip, rolling resistance and puncture resistance.
The Aeolus Pro wheels have no weight limit and come with a lifetime warranty for the original buyer.
Thanks to the low weight of 1443 grams, you ride uphill with less effort. In addition, the low 21 mm rim prevents the wind from getting a grip. Ideal for in the mountains!
The high quality DT Swiss 240S hubs ensure a low rolling resistance and a long service life.
The ratchet body system of the DT Swiss 240S hub engages very quickly when accelerating after a turn.
Cons
The set is a bit heavy for a carbon wheel set.
At 1750 grams these wheels are slightly heavier than high-end aerodynamic wheels.
The 21 mm high rims give you no aerodynamic advantage. If you rarely or never ride in the mountains, it's wiser to look at a slightly higher rimmed set of wheels.
