Vittoria has declared a new assortment of ‘wide rim optimized’ tires designed to ensure optimal aerodynamic performance – it has guessed that there are wide rims.
The Italian brand says these tires developed in conjunction with the team Vismma one of a bike and star shooters, Van Aert.
In the beginning, the extensive RIM optimized range consists of two tires – Corsa Pro TLR and Corsa N.Ext TLR – an internal width is a 700x29c size designed for use of rims with 25mm.
An extensive RIM optimized Corsa Speed ​​TLR time test tires are also built to watch “in the coming months”.
Perfect and connective profile
Vittoria offers a combination of extensive rim optimized tires and a large rim “minimizing micro turbulence”, thereby reduces the drag and development.
According to Brena, the difference is in 55kPH in 55kph, as five watts in 55KPH, ‘standard’ in a large rim.
In addition, the change in the tire profile shows a bit better grip and puncture resistance, although they are more severe and less comfortable than 28 or 30C tires.
It is fair to say the concept of using a wide RIM optimized to manage the tires on the road bike.
For example, in Zipp, Silca’s Josh Poertner ‘105 power’ – 105 percent of the tires for optimal aero performance should be 105 percent – although the internal width is not related to the exterior width of a rim.
The optimized versions of the vittoria, the wide rim of the tires will end:
- Vittoria Corsa N.Ext Wide Rim Optimized: € 71.95 / $ 91.99
- Vittoria Corsa Pro TLR is optimized for a wide range of rim: € 95.95 / $ 106.99
- Vittoria Corsa Pro Speed ​​TLR is optimized by a wide range of rim: € 95.95 / $ 106.99
Vittoria says these new tires can be used in rims with narrow internal expansions, although the tires are smaller than 29 mm, vittoria says. Three of the tires are all three and correspond to the bent ring.
Vittoria, a Cortor Project, a large rim optimized tires, a Corsa N.Ect Wide RIM will take more than 290 grams from a standard 28c version of a standard 28c, more than 15 graces.
Do you have more than answering the eye here?
The vittoria had 28 and 30C tires in the range, which already had 28 and 30c tires, was a little strange events to add 29c options.
However, on February 2024, Thomas de Gendt in the UAE Tour, the front saw the front was demolished from RIM.
In this case, Belgium, 25 mm internal RIM width, Zipp 353 NSW tires 28C Vittoria Corsa Pro TLR fired.
In this case, this merger was ‘confirmed’ by Zipp, Vittoria and UCI (exercise management body).
Vittoria also claimed that in contrast to any compliance with the equipment of De Gendt, the incident was caused by a damaged ring.
The issue was complicated, although the latest international standards (issued by ETRTO and ISO) were the minimum nominal tire size for 25 mm internal width RIM.
Following the event, Made a UCI comment Reminder groups of the technical rules of the teams in this area with the relevant ISO standards.
Most of the teams using 25mm wide rims have passed to 30c tires or combined 28C tires with narrower rims, 2024 Tour de France has seen 29C Vingegaard Cerso R5 sets in 2024 Tour de France.
Vittoria, it is created to meet the requirements of Pro teams and it seems right.
