High-volume endurance tubular tire
Born from the cobbles of Roubaix, the Velocita is a high-volume endurance racing tubular tire. A center diamond tread turns into a file tread on the edges of the Velocita for increased cornering control, while the MaxxShield provides puncture protection under the sidewalls and tread.
THREADS PER INCH (TPI)
The number of threads that cross through one square inch of a single ply of the tires casing. Lower TPI gives better puncture, cut and abrasion resistance but is heavier. Higher TPI conforms better to the terrain, offering a smoother, more comfortable ride while reducing the weight of the tire.Maxxis TPI ratings are the threads-per-inch of a single casing ply,as compared to some competitor TPI ratings.
DUAL COMPOUND Two compounds used within the tread of select tires to offer lower rolling resistance and increased cornering grip.
MAXXShield MaxxShield represents the ultimate in flat protection. We begin with our SilkShield bead-to-bead protection and add our K2 (Kevlar® Composite) layer under the tread for unparalleled durability.
