According to the product specialist
Pros
Brake fantastically and even better than ordinary aluminium rims, even in steep descents. |
Aerodynamic wheelset with wide comfortable rims. |
These wheels definitely win the beauty award for their shiny carbon rims and simplicity in decals. |
Due to the rim height of 40mm, the Wind 40C wheels are very versatile; high enough for aerodynamic advantage, but low enough for use on windy roads. |
The sealed industrial bearings in these wheels run smoothly and at the same time are well sealed against water and dirt. |
If you're looking for lighter weight, improved aerodynamics and good braking performance, this is the way to go. |
The Exalith brake track offers excellent stopping power, even in the rain. |
Comes with a set of decent Mavic tyres as standard. |
The flat, thick spokes give your bike a striking look. |
Cons
The Exalith braking surface makes more noise when braking than a regular aluminium rim. |
These wheels cannot be made tubeless. |
The carbon braking surface makes this wheel less suitable for long mountain descents with the risk of a blowout or rim deformation. |
The brake pads wear out quicker because of the Exalith. |
Sadly, you can't order the wheels without the tyres if you prefer to use your own tyres. |
