Vittoria Fastest Road Bike Tires get Wider 30mm Option for Corsa PRO Speed
The new Vittoria Corsa PRO Speed 700x30c (30-622) adds a wider size to their fastest road bike tire. And yes, its because their World Tour teams were asking for it.As such, its a high-performance tire designed for racing, and Vittorias sponsored riders are already riding it, and you can, too, starting today. Available February 17th, MSRP is $125.99 per tire. Which is a lot, but its a pretty special tireThe Corsa PRO Speed comes only in a tubeless-ready construction with an ultra-supple Corespun 320 TPI cotton casing. The tread seamlessly tapers into the sidewall for a smoother, more aero appearance, and its all electrically cured to minimize rolling resistance.Theres a bead shield to protect against pitch flats, but theres no puncture protection layer under the tread. If you dont need the protection, this is one of the best road tires weve ever ridden, and now its wider.The tread is a Graphene + Silica compound, which is simultaneously fast yet grippy, even in the wet. Small grooves on the sides provide cornering edges, but the center is perfectly smooth.The Vittoria Corsa PRO Speed now comes in 24, 26, 28, and 30mm wide options. The weights are:24mm 220g26mm 235g28mm 250g30mm 270gTheres also a unique 29WR model (255g), which is a 29mm wide rim version designed to provide a perfectly flat (more aero) sidewall profile on extra-wide rims like those from Reserve. The rest of them are built like normal tires, so theyll be shaped like normal tires on normal rims.Vittoria.comThe post Vittoria Fastest Road Bike Tires get Wider 30mm Option for Corsa PRO Speed appeared first on Bikerumor.
