Pros: 
Extremely Light, Very Stiff and Durable, Dont need truing, Hubs spin smoothly and roll amazingly fast.
Cons: 
None at all. They aren't deep rim aero but they are also light, can't really have both unless you are spending $3000 on Zipp 303's.

Got these wheels from the warehouse (My second blackset wheelset, I have the blackset aero race on my Cervelo Soloist). These are super light, a scant 1300 grams. Lightest wheelset I have ever owned and we are still talking 24/28 spoke count so these wheels are not flexible and I can climb and descend on these with confidence (I weigh 185 lbs.) and these wheels are amazing. Currently using them on my Cervelo P2C and will be using them in some races this year. If you want the best at a way cheaper price than any top name brands check these out!
