New question - What's the difference between the Corsa and Corsa Elites? Obviously the various Corsas have higher TPI, and are more expensive.
How will this translate on the road? Worth the extra $20/pop? Will they last longer? Corner harder? Roll with less resistance? What? They come in purdy colors too.

Corsa CX: 320 TPI, latex tube, IsoGrip rubber, 255grams for 25c (all specs on vittoria.com) ...as for the difference on the road? IME...difference between 290TPI and 320TPI will be indiscernible, but latex vs butyl is definitely discernible....YMMV. |

Vittoria ad info above but for me, a latex tube vs buytl tube, I sure can't tell the difference. Seems I got more punctures with Corsa vs Elite..really like the Elites, have replaced the rather poorly riding Sprinters with them.

Today i had to drill through the valve using an electric powered tool in order to loosen up my caffe latex that had built up around the valve.
Valve core removed, nothing Spoke poking through the valve, nothing Nail pushed down n twisted through the valve, nothing even with light taps with a hammer.. Powerdrill eventually emptied the tire No air was getting in or out but not enough in the tire as it was. New exp for me |
