According to the product specialist

Pros
-
The Powerstrap velcro closure wraps around the foot like a ribbon, offering an excellent fit and very high wearing comfort.
The R5 nylon outsole is reinforced with carbon, for the perfect balance between comfort and performance.
The Surround Wrapping and the BOA fastener create a perfect fit.
The low shaft height and the midsole help to stabilise the foot.
The combination of mesh, TPU and imitation leather provides better comfort and ventilation.
The carbon-reinforced nylon sole offers a perfect balance between comfort and stiffness.
Cons
-
The power transfer to the pedals is not as good as that of a shoe with a full carbon sole.
The Velcro fastening on the tip is less effective than the BOA on the top.
The reinforced nylon sole delivers less power to the pedals than a full carbon sole.
