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.
