According to the product specialist
Pros
| Aerodynamic and not sensitive to crosswinds. |
| Direct, rigid and reliable carbon wheels. |
| Showstopper braking surface for better control and maximum braking power. |
| The Campagnolo Bora WTO 45 wheels are of top quality and excel in aerodynamics, weight and stiffness. |
| The AC3 brake rim ensures good braking performance in all conditions comparable to aluminium rims. |
| The 19mm internal rim width makes it possible to ride with outer tubes from 23 to 30 mm. The wide tyres provide more comfort and low rolling resistance. |
| The G3 spoke pattern saves weight by using fewer spokes and provides better power transfer. |
| The 2-Way Fit rim profile allows for both tubeless and folding tyres and inner tubes. |
| The low weight of only 1555 grams in combination with the 45mm high rim, makes the Scope S4 wheels a very good all-round wheelset that can compete with the Zipp 303. |
| The highly developed carbon brake surface can withstand temperatures of up to 280 degrees and performs well in all conditions, even in the rain! |
| The pre-installed tubeless rim tape makes the wheels tubeless in no-time; this ensures more comfort, lower rolling resistance and higher puncture resistance. |
| An extended warranty period of 3 years and a lifetime crash replacement program give you a lot of security with Scope! |
| Scope wheels are developed in the Netherlands in cooperation with Schwalbe, SKF, TU Eindhoven and TU Delft, so high quality is guaranteed. |
Cons
| The carbon braking surface makes this wheel less suitable for long mountain descents with the risk of a blowout or rim deformation. |
| For an even more aerodynamic set, you should take a look at the Campagnolo Bora WTO 60 wheels. |
| The carbon braking surface makes this wheel less suitable for long mountain descents with the risk of a blowout or rim deformation. |
| There is not much choice in brake pads. For the best braking performance and long life of the rims you should use Scope brake pads. |
| The carbon rim brake structure makes this wheel less suitable for long mountain descents with the risk of blowouts or rim deformation. |
