^I've used Vittoria tires for years. Most recently Vittoria EVO CX Tubulars on my race wheels, and Vittoria Open Corsa on my Merlin.


I've always liked Vittoria tires. The EVO CX tubulars ride great.


The Open Corsas ride very nicely, with the only knock being that they are not terribly durable, but that's a known tradeoff.


The new generation graphene clinchers do not feel anything like the Open Corsa's. The casing of the tire feels much stiffer and thicker, and IMHO, they don't ride nearly as nicely.


The tubulars may be different, however.
