An ideal choice for riders seeking an affordable, durable 700x28c tyre for everyday road training, endurance rides, touring or rougher road conditions.
The Vittoria Zaffiro is a straightforward road tyre for riders putting in regular kilometres across changing conditions. The 700x28c size offers a practical balance of road comfort and control, while the 1C all-weather compound is designed for dependable grip and long-term use. It is suited to endurance cycling, early-season training, road touring and general riding on demanding road surfaces.
This is a tube-type, rigid-bead tyre with a 26 TPI nylon casing. The casing is built for durability, and the modern tread design is intended for continued use on rough roads and during demanding training. At 400 g, it prioritises robust everyday service over low weight, making it a sensible option for training bikes, commuting and riders who want an affordable replacement tyre.
A Bead Shield protective layer adds protection where the tyre meets the rim. Before fitting, check that your wheel accepts the 28-622 ETRTO size and use Vittoria’s ETRTO tyre-and-rim compatibility guidance to confirm the rim combination. Hookless compatibility is not specified for this 700x28c version, so confirm compatibility with your rim manufacturer before purchase.
