Technologies

Cotton casing – cotton threads are the finest in tire casing construction, providing lightness and flexibility. This allows high-end cotton casings to be made with a thread count of up to 320 TPI. The tire conforms better to the road surface, resulting in a smoother ride, easier rolling and better grip. To increase overall casing strength, „Vittoria“ uses „Corespun“ threads, made from cotton and aramid fibres.

Graphene technology in tires – „Vittoria“ uses graphene in tire compounds to improve tire performance. Graphene is the thinnest material in the world and one of the strongest materials ever used in consumer products. It consists of a single layer of hexagonally arranged carbon atoms. Graphene interacts with the rubber by filling the space between rubber molecules and acts like a magnet, bringing the molecules closer together and improving the overall rubber structure. Its key properties are thinness, strength, flexibility and lightness. In MTB tires, GRAPHENE 2.0 improves wet-surface grip across all product lines.

Graphene + Silica – adding silica to graphene improves tire performance, providing longer mileage and better grip. This new compound combination also reduces tire weight and increases efficiency. According to „Vittoria“ laboratory tests, compared with a conventional compound, the new graphene and silica combination delivers 9% more speed and rolling performance, 32% more road grip and 21% more puncture resistance, as well as longer mileage and extended tire life.
