Vittoria Corsa Pro 29 WR TLR | Wide Rim Aero Tyre 622 Folding Tire

Corsa Pro — Aerodynamics Optimized for Modern Wide Rims

Developed for the latest generation of aero road bikes, Corsa Pro is engineered to work with modern wide rims—not against them. As rim internal widths have increased, tire shape has become a critical factor in aerodynamic efficiency, and Vittoria designed the Corsa Pro platform specifically around this evolution.

By pairing a supple 320 TPI cotton casing with carefully optimized tire profiles (including wider sizes such as 28 mm and 29 mm), Corsa Pro achieves a rounder, more continuous tire–rim interface. The result is reduced airflow separation at the leading edge of the wheel, lower turbulence, and improved stability at high speed—especially in crosswinds.

Unlike traditional narrow race tires that create a “lightbulb” shape on wide rims, Corsa Pro maintains a smooth aerodynamic transition, allowing the rim to do its job as an aero structure rather than fighting disrupted airflow.

Why Wider Can Be Faster

Modern aerodynamic testing has shown that wider tires, when correctly matched to wide rims, can be faster overall—not just more comfortable.

Corsa Pro leverages this principle by combining:

• Optimized width-to-rim pairing for reduced aero drag

• Extremely low rolling resistance, minimizing energy loss on smooth tarmac

• High-speed stability, improving rider confidence in aggressive racing scenarios

The wider footprint also allows lower operating pressures without sacrificing speed, enhancing vibration damping while keeping airflow attached to the wheel system.

Race-Proven Construction for Aero Performance

At the core of Corsa Pro is Vittoria’s advanced construction process, where the tread is directly embedded into the cotton casing using a proprietary vulcanization method. This eliminates excess layers, reduces deformation at speed, and helps the tire maintain its intended aerodynamic shape under load.

Paired with Vittoria’s Graphene + Silica compound, the tire delivers consistent grip and predictable handling while preserving its speed-first aerodynamic intent.

Designed for High-Speed Race Scenarios

Corsa Pro excels when speed matters most:

• High-speed road racing

• Aero-focused setups with deep-section carbon wheels

• Wide internal rim profiles (modern hookless or hooked designs)

This is a tire built for riders who understand that aerodynamics is a system, not a single component—and that tire choice plays a decisive role in real-world speed.
