Vittoria Corsa Control Graphene 2.0 TLR Road Bike Tyre

I only ride with Vittoria

Used 4 of these tyres in 4 months (1 front, 3 rear). Initially fitted tubeless on DT Swiss rims. Tyres are easy to fit and remove on the rims without tyre levers. The first month I was very satisfied, especially with the handling. However, the tyres do lose pressure quickly and re-pumping is necessary 2-3 times a week, a bar is quickly lost after about 3 days. After one month after a rain ride, the tubeless latex came between the tread and casing over a large part of the rear tyre. This was neatly replaced by Mantel under warranty. The new tyre I unfortunately rode within two weeks had a puncture, which was not sealed by the latex and a plug was also blown out time and again. Big piece of glass, so simply bad luck. Finally, with another new tyre, I abandoned tubeless and started riding with inner tubes. I kept the front tyre tubeless for a while, until after a heavy rain shower the sidewall was full of dozens of white dots from the sealant. Before then, I also fitted an inner tube. Handling with inner tubes is still fine, but tubeless rides a bit better. With inner tubes I had three more punctures within 2 months. With my previous tyres I managed to ride 10,000 km without a puncture. Wear is relatively high. In 2 months / 4500km, the rear tyre runs out again. In addition, the rubber is letting go of the casing in a few places, similar to the previous problem where the sealant got between the tread and casing. On the advice of a Mantel employee in the shop, I have now switched to Vittoria Corsa Next. These should not have the problem of the rubber coming loose due to a different construction.
