I expect to get my clinchers any day. I will mount them straight and unmount existing Corsa Graphene G+ 1.0 which had like 600 kms

I'm waiting to Byclicle Rolling Resistance
Not a reader of French, but using google translate I take it that he tested a pair of tyres on rollers with 20ml of sealant on rollers at 6 bars. The tyre tested was corsa speed 2.0. Compared to the Conti 5000TL, the old corsa speeds were cumulatively 5.6 watts faster, and the 2.0 version increased that gap to 11.5 watts. From that he somehow extrapolates to difference in the real world on tarmac of 1.24 watts for corsa 1.0 vs Conti, and 2.55 watts for the corsa 2.0 version. These numbers point to a bigger difference than the BRR test, but perhaps the takeaway is that, unsurprisingly, the new version is faster by a measurable amount.cveks wrote: ↑Mon Apr 22, 2019 9:25 pmsite under maintanancea20dth wrote: ↑Sun Apr 21, 2019 9:03 amFirst review I saw.

What does it say? Rolling resistance data anyone?
What size 2.0 tubs are you running?Bridgeman wrote: ↑Wed Mar 13, 2019 3:39 pmI've been riding on 2 pairs of tubular wheelsets with a CX in front and Graphene's in back and the CX's are full of little cuts, whereas the Graphene's have way less. After riding many miles on this combination, it's clear that the Graphene formulation is far more resistant to cuts and punctures, at least in my case.
IIRC the person behind BRR never test review sample provided by the tyre company. He always buys his own sample for testing through regular online retailer or his/her LBS. It also seems to be done out of hobby with only compensation via donation or kickback from online retailer purchase link to pay his website hosting fees and tires purchase.
Corsa, or corsa speed?RocketRacing wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2019 10:28 pmSo a bit more from josh p. From his marginal gains podcast.
F#%k... new vittoria tubeless corsa tires that were given to pros... about 4w **per wheel** faster than fastest tubular available to peleton. This is apparently from private team testing.
I wait to see what mortals can expect with the customer models, but i am interested...
He was talking about this in reference to Kristoff's use of tubeless at Paris-Roubaix and referred to it as the TLR tire, so I'm assuming that he's talking about the Corsa TLR, not the "Speed". He also states that part of the reason why he believes Kristoff had flat issues at Paris-Roubaix was that he was using 25's, which other news sources have corraborated. It is not clear if these tires are the same as the ones available to the public or some test/prototye tire... Apparently each team was limited to 4 tires.Meyercord wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2019 7:11 amCorsa, or corsa speed?RocketRacing wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2019 10:28 pmSo a bit more from josh p.

He said per tire!!! My eyes popped open.TobinHatesYou wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2019 9:41 amI was vaguely listening to that ep. Are you sure he said per tire?
Yeah. kristoff got 4th at flanders on those tires, and apparently liked them so much, that he wanted them for roubaix. But roubaix is harsher than flanders, and he got the flats.
