Vittoria Barzo Gravel / XC MTB Tire

No, this specific version is a wire-bead, tube-type tire. It is designed to be used with an inner tube and is not compatible with tubeless conversion systems.

The Barzo excels in mixed conditions. Its moto-style block knobs provide excellent bite in loose dirt and corners, though it is primarily designed as an XC tire rather than a dedicated mud-shedding tire.

This tire is built for technical cross-country riding where you need a balance of speed and grip. It is ideal for riders who encounter a mix of hardpack, roots, and rocky sections on their local trails.

This tire is sized 29 x 2.10 inches. Please ensure your current wheelset is 29 inches in diameter and that your frame has sufficient clearance for a 2.1-inch width before purchasing.

The wire bead makes the tire more rigid and slightly heavier than folding-bead alternatives. While it is less convenient to transport or store, it provides a very secure fit on the rim and is a durable, cost-effective choice for riders who don't need to swap tires frequently.
