According to the product specialist

Pros
The Rapid Red 3 wheels are the Racing 3 of gravel wheels: lightweight, comfortable and highly responsive when accelerating.
Suitable for tubeless tyres, so that if you get a puncture the latex fills the hole and you can continue cycling.
Thanks to the 24 mm inner rim width, 30 - 46 mm tyres will fit easily.
The straight-pull spokes are less likely to break than j-bend spokes.
With some light maintenance (replenish bearing grease), the cup & cone bearings will last much longer than industrial bearings.
The 50 mm high OCLV Pro carbon rim offers the optimum mix between weight, strength and durability.
D3 Dual Directional Design rim profile reduces air resistance around the tyre and rim.
Tubeless Ready (TLR) rims allow a quick conversion to tubeless systems.
You can fall back on the Carbon Care Wheel Loyalty program in the case your wheels get damaged.
The perfect road bike wheel for those looking for a semi-high rim with aerodynamic properties.
Good hub seals and equipped with durable industrial bearings with which you have little maintenance.
The rim width of 19 mm makes it possible to mount tyres of 25 mm or wider for more comfort.
Reduced risk of spoke breaks or imbalance in the wheels and therefore suitable for heavier riders with power in the legs.
The 35 mm high rim and flat spokes give you an aerodynamic advantage and increase stability in crosswind.
Cons
With the 24 mm inner rim width, you cannot mount tyres narrower than 30 mm.
You need latex sealant to mount tubeless tyres.
With 1699 grams not the lightest wheel set for in hilly terrain.
For a lighter wheelset, it's best to look at the Fulcrum Racing 3.
