These two treads have marked Vittoria history in XC. Since their launch in the market, they have collected countless national and European titles; Jordan Sarrou won the MTB XCO World Championship in 2020 on Barzo; Pauline Ferrand-Prévot won the MTB XCO World Championship in 2022 on Mezcal, Henrique Avancini won the MTB XCM World Championship in 2023 on Mezcal, just to mention the most iconic ones.
The new tyres feature the same high-performance tread designs of the Barzo and Mezcal high-end versions while using a robust and flexible Nylon 60 TPI casing, folding tubeless-ready bead, and a versatile yet durable, all-conditions rubber compound. Barzo features an alternating ridge design, and progressive sipe angles. Cornering duties are handled by the moto-style block knobs, laid out in a proven V-formation. The result is a tyre that corners as fast as it rolls, while still offering the protection of a full depth tread.
Mezcal features a unique low-profile tread that is tightly spaced in the center, for low rolling resistance and durability. Countless effective edges work together to grip on a variety of terrain, while directional siping on each knob make traction in the roots and rocks.
