ZIPP TANGENTE CORSE

£50

Weight 215g (25mm) Inflated width 24mm Zipp’s Tangente Corse is the all-rounder of its range with an aero profile and a smooth, hard-wearing roll for its weight. Zipp has always prioritised the aerodynamic performance of its tyres to match its rims. Independent rolling resistance results we’ve seen are relatively slow, but our own roll down experience suggests that at higher speeds they’re extremely quick, the larger sizes (we’ve tested 28mm but there’s a 30mm too) even more so on rougher roads when mated to a wider aero rim. Taking that extra speed through corners is risky as they’ve got a distinctive feel tipping into turns and the hard-wearing compound is very slippery, particularly in the wet.
