Vittoria Rubino Pro IV G2.0 28" Tubular Tyre

Ideal for race preparation: the Rubino Pro IV Tubular Tyre by Vittoria

The Rubino Pro IV is a tubular tyre fundamentally designed for intensive training for race preparation. Do you save your competition tyres for special events? You don't have to. The Rubino Pro IV is equally suited for use in racing. It incorporates the proven 3C graphene compound structure, has a long service life, top puncture protection and good handling characteristics. Lighter than a wired tyre, the Rubino Pro has long been a favourite in both training and racing, and with the addition of Graphene compound technology, it's more versatile than ever!

Technology:

3 Compound (3C):
Behind the 3C technology is a coating process from Vittoria, in which 3 separate mixtures (compounds) are combined in the same tread. The 3 compounds are selected for their unique properties (including Graphene 2.0) to create a tyre that offers a superior riding experience in all conditions.

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.

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.

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.
