Vittoria Mezcal III Tire - 29 x 2.35, Tubeless, Folding, Black/Gray, TNT

Sidewall reinforcement, fast-rolling center tread, aggressive cornering, and an ultra-durable construction – this is the tire for XC trails that mix hardpack with root lattices, rocks, and puncture-causing trail debris. The Mezcal XC Trail is engineered for speed that doesn’t deflate just because you take a hit in the sidewall.

The continuous center line features offset extensions that are siped to multiply the number of edges propelling you up the trail, and the rear siping on the shoulder knobs is angled for fast cornering on hard, slippery surfaces. For climbing, cornering, or careening down hill, no tire cooks like the Mezcal.

Rubber, infused with Graphene in a graduated schedule of four compounds across the rolling strip and shoulders. Two stabilizing base compounds boost puncture resistance and create a foundation for climbing, braking, and cornering loads. The trail-side compounds reduce rolling resistance, boost traction, and get tacky on switchbacks and off-camber sections, wet or dry. 

A reinforced racing casing, the XC-Race TLR combines a durable, supple 120-TPI nylon construction with additional protection on the sidewalls. Responsiveness, muted chatter, and supple trail feel with a little extra anti-puncture insurance – when XC gets gnarly, the XC-Trail TLR goes off.
