Vittoria Juniores
Best durable tire for young cyclists seeking reliable performance and safety.
These tubulars are the gold standard for smaller wheel diameters, bridging the gap between daily training durability and race-day performance. The cotton casing offers a supple ride feel that’s rare in this size, though you’ll need to be comfortable with the maintenance that comes with a traditional tubular setup.
