Built for cross-country racing, the Mezcal XCR combines a continuous centre line with offset, siped tread extensions. This keeps the tyre rolling efficiently on hardpack while adding leading and trailing edges for stronger climbing drive and braking bite.
The shoulder tread uses parallel siping, variable knob widths and open trailing edges to help the tyre corner quickly on hard, slippery surfaces. The 4C Graphene-infused compound balances low rolling resistance through the centre with increased grip at the shoulders.
At 795 g in the 29x2.35 size, this version uses a supple 120 TPI nylon XC Race TLR casing with Bead Shield protection around the rim interface. It is tubeless-ready for dependable air retention without an inner tube; use a sealant that does not contain ammonia, and check Vittoria’s ETRTO rim-compatibility table before fitting to a hookless rim.
An ideal choice for XC racers and fast trail riders who prioritise rolling speed, dry-weather grip and a lightweight tubeless setup.
Fast-rolling centre tread
The continuous centre line maintains efficient contact with the trail, helping you carry speed across hardpack and between corners.
Siped climbing and braking edges
Offset centre-tread extensions create extra leading and trailing edges for improved drive uphill and more bite under braking.
Confident hardpack cornering
Parallel-siped shoulder knobs with open trailing edges support quick, controlled cornering on dry and slippery hard surfaces.
4C Graphene-infused compound
Four compound zones reduce rolling resistance in the centre while maximising shoulder grip when you lean the bike into a turn.
Supple XC Race casing
The 120 TPI nylon casing is designed to reduce rider fatigue while providing race-day reliability and puncture resistance.
Tubeless-ready construction
The TLR system supports easy inflation and dependable air retention without an inner tube.
Bead Shield protection
An additional protective layer reinforces the casing where it meets the rim.
Hookless setup guidance
For hookless rims, match the tyre with the recommended rim width in Vittoria’s ETRTO compatibility table.
