The 46mm deep rim and the 16 aero thin and bladed spokes make its aero properties extremely good. Optimal is almost sub one kilogram which allows rides with very high height difference. Regarding the stiffness, Optimal is also performing pretty well. 24 spokes with even and high spokes tensions, high modulus carbon fibre rims !
