Overview
How does the Vittoria Mezcal XC Race compare to the Peyote and Barzo?
The Vittoria Mezcal XC Race Tubeless Tire in Brown sits in the middle of the Vittoria XC lineup, engineered as the versatile do-everything cross country tire for riders whose trails blend hardpack, fine loose, roots, and rocks throughout a single ride. The continuous center line keeps rolling speed high on smooth sections, while siped offset extensions add climbing grip and braking bite, and directional shoulder siping delivers precise cornering on hard and slippery surfaces. The warm tan sidewall is the signature of a heritage XC build.
Built on Vittoria's 60 TPI XC Race TLR casing with the Race Formulation Graphene plus Silica compound and reinforced Bead Shield, the new Mezcal is faster, grippier in wet conditions, and more puncture resistant than the previous generation. Tubeless ready and hookless rim compatible. The Brown sidewall runs lighter than the Full Black equivalent. The right pick for XC racers, marathon riders, ultra distance and bikepacking cyclists who want race day speed with a classic tan wall look.

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 Mezcal compare to the Peyote and Barzo?
The Mezcal sits between the Peyote and Barzo. The Peyote is the fastest rolling for hardpack. The Barzo is the most aggressive for coarse loose terrain. The Mezcal is the versatile all rounder for mixed conditions, hardpack with roots and rocks, and long XC and marathon days where conditions vary throughout the ride.
Is the Mezcal XC Race tubeless and hookless compatible?
Yes. The Mezcal 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.
Does the Brown sidewall affect tire performance?
The brown sidewall does not affect tread performance. The compound, casing, and knob pattern are identical between the Brown and Full Black versions. The choice is purely aesthetic. Brown tends to run a few grams lighter due to sidewall construction.
