Maximum puncture protection for race bikes! The Stelvio Plus is effectively protected from penetration punctures by its SmartGuard belt. The strong layer made from highly elastic special rubber is not as thick as the Marathon Plus, nevertheless the protection level is unique in a racing tire.
Great city tire!
I ride to work in NYC everyday and like most urban cities, it’s full of lot’s of debris, glass, potholes, etc… this morning i was riding over the Queensboro bridge and going pretty fast I didnt notice a broken Budweiser glass. i went straight over it and even broke it because I just inflated it 120psi. The bottle shattered and flew to the side. In the next seconds expecting to hear a hiss or feel a wobble in my rear tires… i kept riding and went another 30minutes hoping to make it to work. all is fine. The tires just beat the hell out of the glass. i love these tires!
