Padanga 28 Vittoria Rubino Pro Fold 700x28c / 28-622 black

11A00142 For amateur racing and training. Designed for intensive training, it is equally suitable for racing events. The Rubino Pro builds on the standard Rubino platform, utilizing the same exclusive 3C Graphene compound structure, long service life, puncture protection, and sharp handling traits, but substitutes a folding bead material for reduced weight. The Rubino Pro has long been a favorite for both training and racing, and with the addition of Graphene technology compounds, is more versatile than ever! Performance in all conditions Exclusive Graphene 3C compound technology Supple yet durable casing for extended use Size: 700x28c ETRTO: 28-622 Tire Bead: Foldable Material: Nylon, 150 TPI (Threads per inch) Compound: 3C Graphene (3 different types of material with graphene technology) Color: Black Weight: 270 g 3C COMPOUND: Road tires need to deliver speed, control and durability. Vittoria 3C Graphene compounds are formulated to give good grip with the low rolling resistance, while still providing a long useful wear life. FOLDING Clincher: The most convenient choice, as this construction allows the tire to be stored in very compact size. Also, they are lighter than rigid alternatives as there is no wire inside the bead. The perfomance of such tires is better. Nylon Casing: Nylon is a robust and durable artificial fiber traditionally used for strong tire casings. Nylon threads are less thin than cotton ones, so casings have a lower number of threads per inch. The advantages of nylon casings is that they are strong and durable, extending the wear life of the casing. However, because it is an artificial fiber, it is not as supple (soft/flexible) as cotton. About GRAPHENE technology in tires: Graphene is the innovative material used by Vittoria in compounds to improve performance of tires. Graphene is the worlds thinnest material but at the same time one of the strongest ever used for consumer applications. Made of a single hexagonal-shape layer of carbon atoms, Graphene interacts with rubber by filling the space in between the rubber molecules. It acts like a magnet, making rubber molecules closer to one another and improving the overall rubber structure. Graphenes main properties are related to: Thinness / Strength / Flexibility / Lightness.
