Description
All set for race day, this handmade tubular cyclocross (CX) tyre features a 100% cotton casing with high thread-per-inch (TPI). As a result, it delivers increased puncture resistance, more elasticity, lower rolling resistance and better handling in corners. Whether you're training or competing, its all-purpose tread is developed for increased control when cornering as well as greater comfort with low tyre pressure. Used and loved by most professional riders, and winners of races and championships, Dugast joined the Vittoria Group in May 2021. Neoprene Coating Invented and first used by A Dugast, the Neoprene Coating is a special protection coating applied to A Dugast tyres to extend their lifetime preventing the tyre casing to absorb humidity and mud. The Neoprene Coating is a 0.1 mm-thick layer of silicon applied with a brush on the tyre casing filling the empty spaces in the yarn. The coating prevents water and debris to penetrate the casing as well as preventing aggressive cleaners to deteriorate the casing material. Thanks to the Neoprene Coating, A Dugast tyres are easy to clean and last longer. More importantly, the coating does not affect the tyre functionality and comfort. Base Rim Tape As the use of wheels with disc brakes and the use of larger tyres are increasingly popular, A Dugast offers Cross tyres with a wider base tape for a better fit with larger rims. The larger base tape increases the protection of the tubular sidewall from snakebites. Handmade in the Netherlands A Dugast tyres are handmade in the Netherlands by true craftsmen of bicycle tyres. Through their expertise, yarns, glue and rubber are assembled to create some of the finest tubulars available in the market. A Dugast tyre casings are made with mastery starting from raw cotton and silk yarns, on which rubber tread is glued with extreme precision. All the steps of tyre making are performed by experienced technicians having deep knowledge of cyclists’ requirements and needs.
