According to the product specialist

Pros
The Zipp 808 wheels are geared towards pure speed, thanks to the 82 mm deep rim. Thanks to optimum aerodynamics, you can ride faster without any extra effort.
Both tubeless tyres and folding tyres can be mounted on the rims. This makes it possible to ride tubeless, with advantages such as lower rolling resistance, better grip and more comfort.
The Zipp ZR1 hubs, developed in Germany, have bearings with a good seal and improved durability. The 6 pawl body engages super fast, minimising energy loss when starting.
Lifelong warranty on production faults, except for wear and tear. Ultimate security!
Ideal for time trials or triathlons for extra time gain!
The Shimano Ultegra R8170 C50 wheels are lightweight, reliable and fast!
With a weight of 1562 grams, this wheelset is one of the more lightweight ones available.
Comfort is achieved by a wide, 21 mm tubeless rim. It's suitable for tyres with a width of 28 mm or more.
The wheels are also tubeless compatible. Riding tubeless with latex reduces the risk of punctures.
Unparalleled handling in terms of steering, and the sensitivity to wind is very low. The wheels feel like one with the bike.
The Ubique R50C wheels are multi-purpose, light, stiff, aerodynamic and feel incredibly stable on the road.
The 28mm external and 21mm internal rim width ensures a perfect fit with 28mm tyres.
The hubs feature industrial bearings with good seals against water and dirt.
These wheels are easy to make tubeless with the pre-assembled TLR tape and TLR valves. All you need to do is add TLR tyres and latex sealant.
The decals are subtle and match any bike. And with a 50mm wheel set, your road bike will look even better!
Cons
The height of the rim makes it more sensitive to side winds.
The Dura Ace 9170 C50 wheels take another 100 grams off the wheels, for the real weightweenies. It's bearing quality is also one more step better.
A Campagnolo body is not available.
