The Fortezza Duralite is 18% lighter compared to standard racing tires (195 grams in size 700x25), but it also features a layer called Sportex Protection Layer (SPL).
This system provides all the advantages of a lightweight, high-performance tire while reducing the risk of punctures to the level of a heavier version.
The lower rolling resistance and improved grip come from the 150 TPI casing, combined with a new durable compound that ensures long-lasting performance.
Additionally, its elliptical shape offers optimal aerodynamic properties.
In short, this model is light and fast and lasts longer than comparable tires.
