Vittoria Barzo Graphene 2.0 4C TLR 29" tyre
Riding technical XC? The Barzo is the choice of the World Champion, as well as the winner of the BC Bike Race. How can such an aggressive XC tyre roll so fast? The magic starts in the center tread, where Vittoria have placed an alternating ridge design, and progressive sipe angles. Cornering duties are handled by the moto-style block knobs, laid out in a proven V-formation. The result is a tyre that corners as fast as it rolls, while still offering the protection of a full depth tread. Rocks and roots? Check. World Championship? Check.
Technologies
Graphene 2.0
With the aim to always push the boundaries of what is possible, Vittoria succeeded in the development of a new generation of Graphene: Graphene 2.0. Unlike the first-generation graphene, the new 2.0 graphene is functionalized to enhance specific tyre performances. In other words, where the first generation of graphene compounds raised the bar evenly, Graphene 2.0 pin-points each performance metric, and increases it disproportionally to the rest. Vittoria is now able to apply Graphene in such a way that it can achieve a performance boost specifically for speed, wet grip, durability and puncture resistance.
4C
Vittoria 4C is a layering process, using 4 separate compounds in the same tread. The 4C process offers unmatched versatility, by allowing for separate base and surface compounds, in both the center and side areas of the tread.
TLR (Tubeless-Ready)
TLR (Tubeless-Ready) technology allows a tyre to be used with or without an inner tube, by using a liquid sealant. The Tubeless Ready system offers the cyclist greater comfort and a perfect grip in every situation, at the same time guaranteeing better protection against punctures.
XC-Race
XC-Race is the lightest Cross Country casing from Vittoria. Delivering top level dependability and performance, XC-Race is the perfect choice for competitions. Tubeless-ready aramid beads combined with a single layer of Nylon 120 TPI make a lightweight package for ultimate speed in race.
