Overview
What is the Vittoria Barzo XC Race built for?
The Vittoria Barzo XC Race Tubeless Tire is the most aggressive XC race tire in the Vittoria lineup, engineered for World Cup courses with coarse loose surfaces, technical climbs, and the kind of conditions where the Peyote or Mezcal would slip the rear wheel. Tall widely spaced shoulder knobs deliver mountain bike level cornering bite, while the open center tread clears mud and loose surface debris fast. This is the XC race tire for the days when the course gets gnarly and the front of the pack thins out.
Built on Vittoria's 60 TPI XC Race TLR casing with the Race Formulation Graphene plus Silica compound and a reinforced Bead Shield, the Barzo XC Race delivers race day weight savings with maximum traction on the conditions where bite matters. Tubeless ready and hookless rim compatible. The Full Black sidewall pairs cleanly with modern carbon XC builds. This is the right pick for XC racers on technical World Cup style courses, marathon riders dealing with mixed-and-rough conditions, and Pacific Northwest XC where loamy and loose trails are the daily reality.

FAQ
Good questions
Get to know Vittoria

There's more to Vittoria than this one product. Our Vittoria page has the full Vittoria lineup we carry and more about the brand.
Visit the Vittoria page →How does the Barzo compare to the Peyote and Mezcal?
The Peyote is the fastest rolling XC tire for hardpack and fine loose. The Mezcal is the versatile all rounder for mixed conditions. The Barzo is the most aggressive for coarse loose terrain and technical XC courses. Choose Barzo if your trails are predominantly rough, loose, or technical.
Is the Barzo XC Race tubeless and hookless compatible?
Yes. The Barzo XC Race has a tubeless ready folding bead, hookless rim compatibility, and uses the XC Race TLR casing with reinforced Bead Shield. Pair with quality tubeless sealant.
Is there an XC Trail version of the Barzo?
The XC Race version uses the 60 TPI race casing with Race Formulation compound for race day. There is no XC Trail version of the Barzo in the current Vittoria lineup. If you want a more durable everyday version of an aggressive XC tread, the Mezcal XC Race or a non Vittoria option may be better matched.
