Vittoria Martello Race

While it is engineered for the rigors of enduro and downhill racing, it works well for aggressive trail riding. However, at 1380 grams, it is a heavy tire, so riders who prioritize climbing efficiency over descending stability might find it overkill for casual rides.

The graphene-infused compound is designed to balance grip and durability. It remains supple enough to conform to rocky and root-filled terrain for better traction, while the material structure helps the knobs resist tearing and wear over time.

Yes, although it is optimized for a tubeless setup, you can install it with an inner tube. Keep in mind that running it tubeless allows you to take full advantage of the lower pressure capabilities and the built-in puncture protection.

The tread pattern excels on technical, mixed-surface terrain. The progressive siping helps the tire bite into loose dirt and mud, while the blocky design provides the stability needed for high-speed cornering on hardpack or rocky trails.

The 65mm width (roughly 2.55 inches) fits most modern enduro and downhill rims. Before purchasing, verify your frame and fork clearance to ensure you have enough space for a tire of this volume.
