Vittoria 29" Mezcal XCR Tan wall

Fast rolling, aggressive cornering, and a lightweight construction – this is the tire for XC courses that mix hardpack with root lattices and the occasional rocky stretch. The Mezcal XCR is engineered for pure XC speed, and its pedigree is proven with multiple UCI World Championships and XCO European Championships.

The continuous center line maintains fast-rolling contact, and its offset extensions are siped to multiply the number of leading and trailing edges, propelling you up the trail on climbs and increasing bite while braking. The rear siping on the shoulder knobs runs parallel to the trail with variable widths and open trailing edges, so the Mezcal corners fast on hard, slippery surfaces – despite being such a fast-rolling tire. For climbing, cornering, or careening down hill, no tire cooks like the Mezcal.

The Mezcal XC Race’s 4C Graphene-infused compound blends four compounds to minimize rolling resistance on the center strip and maximize confident grip on the shoulders.

The 120-TPI nylon XC Race TLR casing is durable, supple, and puncture resistant – reliability and longevity don’t come at the cost of your connection to the trail.

• XC tire with densely packed, low profile, knob configuration for maximum speed.
• Alternating center-ridge tread for low rolling resistance.
• Numerous effective edges for cornering, braking, and climbing traction.
• 4 compounds in the tread (4C) for increased wear life.
• Tan wall XCR casing: the lightest XC tubeless-ready casing of Vittoria.
• Hookless Rim Compatible.

“For dry conditions, I only use the Mezcal.” – Pauline Ferrand-Prevot (2015,2020 & 2022 World XC Champion)
