The tread pattern features long centre lugs that offer exceptionally fast-rolling speed, while the micro knurling across the surface provides extra traction making them perfect for street & park use. The durable tread pattern wraps around the entire surface of the tyre to protect the sidewall when grinding and provides additional traction when performing sharp turns and tricky manoeuvres. Riders who have a riding style that demands a lot of confidence in grip will find this tyre especially useful.

Coarsely woven 20 or 24 EPI carcasses can no longer be found in Schwalbe's range. The much more densely woven 50 EPI carcass is far more puncture resistant and robust. At the same time, the fabric needs less rubber coating and thus has a reduced weight. Naturally, every Active Line tire has a puncture protection belt, a balanced rubber compound, plus a functional and attractive tread design. Simply said: Active Line is reliable, brand quality!
Kevlar®Guard We have improved the well known Kevlar belt. This protective layer is stronger and safer but at the same time more flexible. This result in the protection level being higher and rolling resistance lower
This tyre's tread keeps a remarkable grip in tough weather, and sports a dynamic profile that ensures puncture resistance, so nothing gets between you and your ride.
Aqua-flow Tread Aqua-Flow derives from car-tyre technology, introducing carefully shaped channels, or ‘sipes’, across the tyre’s tread, to drain water away and let the tyre grip the surface more effectively. Lightweight Nylon Casing Nylon is a robust and durable artificial fibre used by most manufacturers for utility tyre casings. Traditionally, it lacked the flexibility of the polycotton casings preferred by élite riders but was lighter in weight than polycotton threads. Now Vittoria has succeeded in engineering nylon yarn into their exclusive Nylon Plus 220 and 150 TPI weave, setting a new standard in each class of clincher tyres. Weight is cut by 10% over the previous best nylon casings, while road feel and rolling resistance approach closer to the top-performing polycotton open tubulars. Vittoria also offers casings in Nylon 120 TPI, Nylon 60 TPI, and Nylon 26 TPI, each equipping a family of tyres at its respective point on the price-performance scale, and all conferring the Vittoria characteristics of comfort, speed, and good handling.
