Weight Weenies

They look good indeed, did you measure the 30c?

I'm looking for these but still couldn't find them anywhere...

Pretty easy to mount on the rims, light and very supple feel, 30c tires don't seem bigger than older 28s.

Tire is around the weight of non tubeless corsas, I think that tire will probably last somewhere between Corsa and Corsa speed

Haven't measured them, Vittoria doesn't advertise them yet but teams are using them. Peloton gear has to be released to the public after a few months.

The sidewalls aren't porous like former g2.0 cotton tlr tires, sidewalls don't bubble sealant at all. Anything to do with Vittoria buying dougast and using their technology? Neoprene coating?

Really hoping they'll keep producing tubulars, good options are starting to be a bit limited nowadays.

If they're anything like the Corsa NEXT then the casing width when laid flat will be the same for the 28 & 30mm models. Per updated ETRTO standards, a labelled 28mm tyre should measure at 28mm on a 19mm internal rim, whilst a 30mm tyre should measure at 30mm on a 21mm internal rim. The only difference between the two tyres is therefore the tread width, thus reflecting the "correct" inflated size.

Thread width in 28mm and 30mm Corsa pro tires looks the same to me while unmounted, looks like the same rubber band.

Vittoria branding is quite easy to peel, I guess it is good for riders sponsored by other brands other than Vittoria.

I got myself 2 sets, one 28mm and the other one 30mm.

Narrower thread that than Corsa g 2.0 TLR.
28mm and 30mm have same thread width.
Around 20 grams lighter than corsa g2.0.
Tire bead is much better made than g2.0, it will hold air. Hookless compatible (5bar both in 28 and 30mm).
QR code in the box takes you to Corsa NEXT website.

I will ride them when the temperature at night goes over freezing point, I don't want my new tires destroyed by the salt on the road.

Nice. Where do you get these? looks super.

Looks like EF will be using them in the 30c size at Strade Bianche, although the labeling looks different to the ones shown in the Jumbo Visma pcitures. https://efprocycling.com/racing/alberto ... ersix-evo/

Yes, they look really good. According to the source, he will be riding Vittoria Corsa Pro TR 30mm with Air-Liner. (never tried the air-liner myself)

Got them from a random person that I found online, related to a pro team. Not available for sale yet.

Hopefully they will be released before summer time.

April launch. Been in testing with local domestic pros in asia for almost two years.

Hi,
Looking forward to try these. Is the launch still estimated in April?

I'm wondering at what point does the UCI starts fining teams for using tech not available for purchase to the public?

Pretty sure it just has to be available within a certain period of time.

That's what I meant, it was used by team since December, but hasn't been released yet, it's been 5 month almost

How is that an issue? It’s a competition tyre so has only been used in competition for barely 3 months.

Even then the rule is not really enforced. For example Shimano doesn't sell the Dura Ace cyclocross chainring sizes to the public, but all pros have them. There's also Continental who had a "pro only" tubular, or multiple teams running unavailable stems and/or handlebar sizes.

It's a bit of a shame, as the rule does make a lot of sense and is necessary for a fair competition between athletes. Most of these violations don't really give a massive advantage, but still, if there is a rule it should be enforced.
