Shop price $85 with tax. Another in-demand tire out of stock locally. Vittoria is in my top 3 for mtb. This is a Front/Rear XC tire that can easily be used on race day. Alternatively use this on the front with Mezcal rear. This would be my preference for XC/race. I have the Mezcal in stock also. The TnT casing is pinch resistant and the 2.35 size is high volume. Taller profile for that extra cush, same aspect ration as the Mezcal. This tire gets good grades from my own testing on tech XC terrain.
Rolling Resistance: A (one of the fastest I have tested)
Air retention: A- (Vittoria has very good casing integrity)
Climbing traction: B
Braking: B
Hardpack Traction: A-
Loam Traction: B
Tread Durability: B
Weight: B (780g)
Casing Durability: C-
Who is this good for? The person who wants to get from A to B fast, wants more grip than a Mezcal on the front, not planning to thrash it on trails like National or it will leave you with a trailside tire repair. Don't get too aggressive on tech if you are over 160lb.

Boasting an open tread pattern that sheds mud and doesn't clog, the Vittoria Peyote G2.0 TNT MTB Tyre is a fast rolling tyre with side knobs that hold their own on hardpack and are reliable when navigating roots and ruts with slip-free confidence. The widely spaced knobs are low profile so as not to slow the pace, but not so small that traction is lost.
The GRAPHENE 2.0 compound ensures this is a truly durable tyre with abrasion and cut resistance that keeps punctures at bay, whilst also enhancing wet grip. TNT stands for Tube/No Tube, meaning this tyre is tubeless-ready, lightweight and supple, with strengthened sidewalls to avoid pinch flats at lower pressures.
FEATURES
XC MTB tyre with classic low profile knob configuration for fast rolling on hardpack terrain
Directional siping for better traction over roots and rocks
Functionalized GRAPHENE 2.0 compound delivers ultimate wet grip
