Vittoria Corsa Control TLR G2.0 28" Folding Tyre
The specialist: the Corsa Control Folding Tyre by Vittoria
The Corsa Control is a folding tyre for particularly slippery cobblestones and rough road surfaces.
This is because its tread pattern gives it dynamic performance, which provides better grip on slippery surfaces as well as increased durability.

Technology:
Graphene 2.0:The fundamental feature of graphene is that it changes the performance of the rubber, reinforcing the innovative characteristics of Vittoria tyres. In version 2.0, the compound depends on the tyre type and its requirements to improve the desired performance. For Road tyres, this means that Graphene 2.0 significantly reduces rolling resistance and abrasion resistance. So with this rubber compound, you don't have to compromise when speed, grip, durability and wear resistance are required.
4 Compound (4C):
4 Compound is exclusively developed by Vittoria to create a tyre without compromise. Vittoria 4C consists of a coating process that combines the 4 different rubber compounds in one tread. Both the tread and sides consist of a base and surface layer. This makes it possible to place the graphene rubber compound exactly where it is needed, depending on the type of tyre. In addition, durability and puncture protection are improved as the robust base compound resists punctures.
Cotton Carcass:
As a material, cotton helps to reduce the weight of the carcass while providing high protection and grip. Vittoria is considered the pioneer of tyres with cotton casings. To increase the overall strength of the tyre, they use Corespun yarn, a special type of yarn made of cotton and aramid fibres.
The fabric quality used in a tyre casing is expressed in TPI (thread-per-inch): the higher the TPI number, the finer the threads, the denser the weave and the smoother the tyre.
Corespun:
Vittoria's unique Corespun carcass is the result of years of experience, clever R&D (research & development) and advanced manufacturing technology, confirmed by millions of kilometres of cycling racing. The basic material consists of superfine poly-cotton threads. These threads have a polyester core, which is woven around with cotton. This dense fabric is then coated with latex. Corespun carcasses vary in fabric type and density as well as in additives, depending on the desired application.
Corespun 320 tpi is currently the most advanced poly-cotton carcass in the tyre industry. It consists of new, even finer and more tear-resistant threads, which do not contain any Kevlar additives, so that the supple and stretchy material properties of cotton are fully exploited.
Tubeless Ready Cotton Road Casing:
Vittoria's TLR construction offers ultimate puncture protection and speed. A robust new bead material called Zylon is used for optimal air retention. Tubeless Ready Setup is the lightest and fastest housing option.
