According to the product specialist
Pros
A specialist on cross country and marathon courses thanks to its powerful grip on rocks and roots, in both dry and wet weather. |
Perfect to use as a rear tyre thanks to its lower rolling resistance, combined with a front tyre with taller knobs for more grip. |
The short knobs on the tread surface make the Ardent Race fast on straights and the tall side knobs give you confidence in corners. |
The Exo Protection protects the sidewalls from sharp objects. |
Tubeless Ready technology makes the tyres easy to make tubeless with 90ml of latex sealant per tyre. |
The Rocket Ron's open studded tread is well suited to wet and muddy conditions. |
The Addix Speed rubber compound gives you the lowest rolling resistance while still providing sufficient grip and durability. |
The Super Ground carcass features a SnakeSkin weave from bead to bead for good puncture resistance. |
Only a small speed penalty thanks to the smooth compound despite the semi-high studs. |
TLE (TubeLess Easy) technology makes the tyres easy to make tubeless with 90ml of latex sealant per tyre. |
The Vittoria Terreno G2 is a very fast tyre suitable for dry and hardpack surfaces. |
The Terreno G2 is equipped with Vittoria's lightest Tubeless Ready carcass. |
With the taller knobs on the sides, you maintain grip in corners and control during braking. |
4C Graphene 2.0 is made up of 4 layers for the necessary puncture protection and durability. |
Tubeless Ready technology makes the tyres easy to make tubeless with 90ml of latex sealant per tyre. |
Cons
The soft MaxxSpeed rubber might offer a lot of grip, it also wears out quickly. |
Tubeless sealant should generally be topped up every 3-6 months. |
The weight of the Super Ground carcass is higher than the faster Super Race carcass, but it offers more puncture protection. |
Tubeless sealant should generally be topped up every 3-6 months. |
The semi-slick profile has little traction on loose surfaces. |
Tubeless sealant should generally be topped up every 3-6 months. |
