What is the Vittoria Mezcal XC Race built for?

The Vittoria Mezcal XC Race Tubeless Tire in Black is built for fast cross country racing on dry and mixed terrain. It uses Vittoria's XC Race Formulation, a compound that pairs Graphene and silica to deliver increased wet grip and suppleness, and it has been torture tested at UCI elite levels. The 60 TPI tubeless ready casing optimizes deformation, reducing rider fatigue while increasing race day reliability.

The continuous center line keeps rolling resistance low, while siped offset extensions multiply leading and trailing edges to propel you up climbs and add bite under braking. Parallel rear siping on the shoulder knobs lets the Mezcal corner confidently on hard, slippery surfaces without giving up speed. A Bead Shield layer adds extra protection at the bead. This is the tire for cross country racers and fast trail riders who want a proven, fast rolling race tire.
