Product Description |

Safe on all kinds of asphalt and really fast, Diamante Pro is the state of the art of modern nylon bicycle tire construction. The casing is a 220 TPI nylon wonder (a Vittoria exclusive and now further improved) and has got a new Integra 252 puncture protection, for flexibility, comfort and exceptional reliability.
Vittoria still uses a specific tread compound, the Kevlar® Carbon 3D Compound (with silica and carbon black), in order to achieve the main goals related to such a high level of racing tires: grip, low rolling resistance and endurance. Another great feature of this tire is the new tread pattern which has been designed following the Prisma C.O.M. Vector Design: a slick central part with an orientated rhomb pattern on the sides, where each "rhomb" is shaped and oriented to perform better with side and breaking forces.
The new tread pattern has been developed thanks to the new Finished Element Analysis (FEA) software in order to guarantee an outstanding grip and safety.
A new high-end compound, Kevlar® Carbon 3D Compound is the synergy of Kevlar strength and Carbon durability.
Adding Silica to this performance compound, we set the reference for vulcanized high-TPI nylon tires.
Integra is a bead to bead puncture protective layer. We use it for our 220 TPI nylon casings, the highest density of nylon cords available on the market (Vittoria exclusive): with Integra we can take advantage of the super-lightweight casing without compromising its sidewall resistance and sky-high maximum inflating pressure (160 PSI for the Diamante Pro Light!).
The traditional shape of the micro-knobs has been changed in favor of Prisma, a prism with a rhombus base in order to reach a higher contact surface with still the lower achievable rolling resistance.
The unbeatable Nylon 220 Casing (220 TPI, a Vittoria exclusive) get even better. In fact Nylon Plus 220 is the last Vittoria technological solution and it raises the bar for what concerns the nylon clincher limits. A yarn with unbeatable mechanical proprieties, for the first time ever used in the cycling field of application, allowed us to reduce weight by 10%. It means therefore a better flexibility and improved road performances.
Sometimes the best ideas are the simplest. Twin Tread is an ingenious design that places the hard tread in the center where the wear occurs, and uses a softer compound on the shoulders for unparalleled grip when cornering.
