These Ksyriums are somewhat lesser in pecking order to a pair of carbon wheels I have, but I still consider this the best set I've ever owned. I like how they look, they're light (okay, light enough if weight is a major concern), and they have proven their toughness to me on plenty of gnarly gravel.
On smooth pave, they seem to want to roll forever, rolling resistance is noticeably minimized vs. all the tubed sets I've ridden. If you get these and they give you your first spin on tubeless, be ready for a thrill.
Maybe the best thing about them was the tires they came with installed so easily that I'll never fear going tubeless again.
The only minor ding I would cite is it's hard to part with that much $$$ for a decent set of hoops. I'm probably a cheapskate for saying so, but it just seems that way to me.
Bottom line, I have no regrets and would recommend these to anyone.

I am a bike commuter and have been using these wheels and the tires that came with it for about 2 months. Replacing my stock wheels (Aksium) with these was a huge change. Bike seemed more responsive and definitely lighter. The tires grip great, but I did get a gash in one of them after only 250 miles that the sealant wasn't able to fix. While they are easy to inflate, getting the tire off the rim (guessing the sealant made it more difficult) and with sealant going everywhere made putting in a inner tube more difficult than my non tubeless. I did get another puncture on a brand new tire (I went with 28mm and got a puncture in the first 20 miles!), but the sealant was able to fix it which was a relief. Still reserving judgement on tubelesspuncture resistance of these tires, but they are great when they aren't punctured!

Bought in to the road tubeless craze and after seeing a few videos, including one from GCN, decided to go with this wheelset. Haven't regretted it yet. Wheels and tires have been durable around Michigan's terrible roads, crashing through miles of broken asphalt and concrete, gliding along debris-covered shoulders, and shrugging off anything and everything in its path. The tires roll and grip very well at 80 psi, haven't assessed wet weather grip yet. Hubs engages very quickly and has a quiet but nice-sounding freewheel noise. Wheelset looks great with the aero spokes. Tires went on very easy, especially compared with my OE wheelset, where I removed some skin and blistered my hands trying to put tires on the OE rims. Very satisfied after 500 km of use so far.
