VELOFLEX Corsa RACE 28" | 700 x 25C Open Tubular / folding tire black
The traditional Veloflex brand was founded in 1981 in Italy in the small town of Chignolo d'Isola. Even though the company headquarters have since been moved to Presezzo in the province of Bergamo, where numerous Italian bike brands are based, the passion for cycling and for the craft of tire manufacturing is still alive at Veloflex.Unlike other Italian tire manufacturers, Veloflex manufactures each tire by hand from the finest materials and is constantly developing and testing new materials in its own laboratories to produce tires with the best riding characteristics.Over the years, Veloflex tires have won all major races and numerous professional teams continue to choose Veloflex tires.
The Corsa RACE is the perfect racing tire for demanding athletes, combining excellent riding characteristics with extremely low weight without sacrificing puncture protection. Like all Veloflex tires, the Corsa is produced using the same production steps as the legendary Veloflex tubular tires, which is why Veloflex clincher tires are also known as open-tubular tires.
350 TPI cotton carcass
Thanks to the extremely fine cotton carcass, the Corsa RACE is extremely flexible and has silky-smooth rolling characteristics. In addition to high riding comfort, the cotton carcass offers extremely low rolling resistance.
Tread with RainDrop profile
The tread of the Corsa RACE is made of natural rubber and silica. With the RainDrop tread pattern, the tread still offers a very high grip level with extremely low rolling resistance.
RKB Resilient Kinetic Belt
The extremely resistant protective layer under the tread makes the tire extremely resistant to punctures and cuts. Thanks to the placement of the protective layer, the outstanding rolling characteristics are not negatively affected.
Kevlar tire beads
The ultra-light, non-stretch Kevlar tire beads ensure that the tire sits securely on the rim.
SPS - Sidewall Protection System
This reinforcement of the sidewalls in the area of the tire bead protects the sensitive cotton carcass from any sharp-edged carbon rim flanks. Thanks to the SPS system, the Corsa RACE is compatible with all hooked carbon rims on the market.
NOTE: The tire is not compatible with hookless rims. The RainDrop tread has primarily an aesthetic purpose and the grip and rolling characteristics are not negatively affected after the tread has been worn down.
