Hi all

In the market for some new Tubs. Been running Conti competition for the last year but fancy going back to the Vittoria Evo Corsa which I've had before. Prefer the feel from the latex tubes.

The previous incarnation (CX2) cut up quite easily when I ran them before. Ended up super gluing them quite a bit. Does anyone know if the newer CX3 are anymore robust on the tread?

Thanks

    Corsa's cut get used to it. I find they are quite a reliable tyre. I dont bother gluing the holes. I prefer them on dry days to minimise the cuts. A cut is not a problem and i dont believe filling the holes reduces the risk of punctures. It is when flint is left in a cut the problems start.
