Vittoria 29" Syerra Down Country

With modern 29ers combining aggressive, slack geometries with equally aggressive pedaling platforms, there’s no reason why a climbing bike can’t also be a party bike. The Syerra is proof, with a fast-rolling, high-grip center strip and tread that’s spaced, shaped, and siped to bite on climbs, rocks, and roots, or under braking and cornering loads.

The spacious knob layout also clears muck and soil, and the Syerra’s overall girth helps it float on root lattices and rock gardens that we wouldn’t have dreamed of riding 29ers on a decade ago. Despite that extra cushion and traction, a relatively low weight construction means the tire still spins up to speed fast while punching through rollers or earning another lap.

The Syerra blends four Graphene-infused compounds to minimize rolling resistance on the center strip and maximize confident grip on the shoulders. The 60-TPI nylon XC TLR casing is ultra-durable while maintaining a supple connection to the trail, and its abrasion-resistant structure is reinforced with additional sidewall protection.

Features:

• Tread design combines the grip of the Trail category with the speed of the XC category
• Fast rolling center tread, designed for capable climbing and confident braking
• Capable and well spaced side tread, holds your line on a range of terrain
• 4C Graphene compound system provides grip speed and durability
• Specifically designed Nylon casing construction with extra protection ensured by the Anti Pinch Flat insert (APF)
• Hookless Rim Compatible.
