BIKE TAHOE
Test your wheel-changing skill with Vittoria V
ittoria Servizio Corse mechan- ics are taking on all comers
at Booth 140. If you can change a wheel faster than they can, you’ve got a few things coming your way. For those riding the Gran
Fondo, you may have your eye on the Rubino Pro Giro Pink tires at the booth. The pink tread is Vittoria’s way of commemorating its 60 years of racing at the Giro d’Italia. The Giro Pink tires are available in 23c and 25c and run $99 each. There are also new ’cross tires
like the Cross XG TNT for grassy, muddy courses and a faster-rolling SC tire, the $110 SC ISOgrip with a bit more silica in the compound for better grip in the wet. And your favorite Geax
treads come in 650b sizes, so riders don’t have to wait for tire companies to catch up. All Geax mountain tires come in 26-inch, 650b and 29-inch sizes. And given Geax’s sponsorship of so many enduro riders, like the Orbea Geax enduro team and Macky Franklin, they may have some new tire de- signs targeting that market tucked
away at the booth. There are more than tires at
Vittoria; the company also imports Northwave shoes, 3T components and Selle Italia saddles. Do you miss Northwave’s
different-colored shoes? Act fast to buy a pair of its limited-edition 20th anniversary Neros. The all-white right shoe and the all- black left appeal to more than the Harlequin in you. The $350 road shoe has Northwave’s thin and stiff 60-gram carbon sole that is Speedplay-compatible. 3T has lots of new carbon wheels, in various rim depths, and some trick carbon forks. The Mercurio 60 LTD, a carbon 60- millimeter-deep tubular wheelset weighs 1,389 grams and sells for $2,399. Want something trickier? Any Garmin 400, 600 or 800 series computer clicks right into the 3T Integra carbon stem, no mounting hardware needed. Selle Italia has revived the
1990s Flite saddle. The shape and feel are the same, but it now comes in plenty of new colors and models. Selle Italia reps will mea-
20th anniversary Northwave Nero mismatched shoes
sure you for their ID Match system, which matches your sit bones to specific Selle Italia saddles. If you stop by Vittoria’s booth
around 9 a.m. on Friday there is a good chance 1993 world cham- pion Dario Acquaroli will make you an espresso. Many of its pro riders, who have had a hand in developing the new treads, will be at the booth to explain the new designs.
