According to the product specialist
Pros
| Lightweight in this price range with a low weight of 1570 grams. |
| No tubeless rim tape required to make these wheels tubeless which saves another 60 grams per wheel. |
| Infinity hubs provide a non-contact spoke pattern so there is no friction or irritating noise. |
| The Instant Drive 360 body has an engagement of 9 degrees, which means that the wheelset responds very quickly when you turn on your pedals. |
| After registering the wheels on Mavic's website, the manufacturer's warranty is extended from 2 to 3 years. |
| The low weight of 1595 grams offers numerous advantages, such as easier acceleration after a turn and faster uphill riding. |
| Excellent all-round wheelset because of their balance between rigidity, weight, and rim depth. |
| Good power transfer thanks to the G3 spoke pattern, the high flange and shorter spokes in the rear wheel. |
| These wheels are very popular because of their extremely interesting price/performance ratio and are the counterpart to the Fulcrum Racing 3 at a more interesting price level. |
| Multi-purpose from training to racing, both in hilly terrain and on flat roads. |
| Ultegra's level of quality is well known, as you can see in these wheels: reliable bearings, straightpull spokes, lightweight. |
| These bearings are easy to maintain thanks to the smoothly running cup-conus system. Runs fantastically and is more durable than industrial bearings. |
| Can be used with tubes and tubeless! |
Cons
| The Mavic ID360 body for SRAM XDR or Campagnolo cassettes is sold separately. |
| The larger distance between the individual spokes makes it harder to true the wheel. |
| This wheelset's code doesn't immediately indicate Ultegra, but its quality is at Ultegra level. |
