That combined with with the fact that Vittoria is one of the only companies to use 2 or more compounds, plus tubeless compatibility should mean that the new Corsa are one of, if not the, best race clincher on the market.


Are these claims even remotely true? I can’t find any information about them, and the tires are only available through the official Vittoria site.

Ahh, that graph, I wish! Telling me I can go 3 times as fast using the G2.0s. Pretty soon we are going to see the Tour de France done at 40, 50 mph! G 2.0 is the real drug. EPO was just a plaything.
