According to the product specialist
Pros
| Extremely lightweight wheelset at just 1335 grams. |
| The Syntace logo is laser-etched onto the rim, which gives it an extremely clean and sleek look. |
| The hub can be precisely adjusted because of the MicroAdjust system. |
| The flanges of the wheel are relatively close together, lowering the weight and improving aerodynamics. |
| 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! |
| 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. |
Cons
| Adjusting the hub is an exact job. If you don't have experience with doing so, then it might be a little complicated. |
| The closely placed flanges reduce the stiffness of the wheel. |
| This wheelset's code doesn't immediately indicate Ultegra, but its quality is at Ultegra level. |
| The larger distance between the individual spokes makes it harder to true the wheel. |
