I've gone for the Rubino Pro TLR of these, 25mm version is supposed to be 250g, so lighter than the corsa.
Hopefully arriving from Cicli Mattio in Italy today or tomorrow.

Rubino Pro TLR Graphene 2.0 arrived today.
25mm 254g so decent weight.
Took off conti 5000 TLR and remounted them to Reynolds attack Disc wheelset. Up first go with a charger tank Bontrager pump.
Rubino’s onto Reynolds AR41X wheelset. Same pump, soapy beads etc. Jesus they’re tight. Did my entire Apple Watch exercise ring recharging the pump about thirty times!!
Inflated one without valve core, as soon as I took the pump off it jumped straight back off the bead!
Anyway they’re on now, they’re light, they look excellent and nice and aero on the Reynolds AR41X

Will measure later after 24 hrs inflated, the Reynolds are 21mm internal and 30mm external, they looked around 27-28mm on first inflation, when they finally snapped to the bead.

The corsa speeds have more protection then the corsas and corsa controls. can some make sense of this for me
I think they haven't bothered updating their graphs for the new range. The protection was claimed as high for the 1st Speeds because they were the only ones that were tubeless. They were claiming sealant as protection. Now that the other tyres also have TLR versions it doesn't make sense.

Indeed, but looks like they are pricing all of them the same, the regular, speed and control versions. Either that or it is a holding price.
