The Dugast Small Bird 33-28" Tubular tyre by Vittoria is expertly designed for cyclocross enthusiasts seeking reliable performance in mixed and challenging conditions. Crafted with a 100% cotton casing enhanced by a thin neoprene protective coating, this tyre balances durability and resilience while maintaining exceptional comfort and responsiveness on the trail. Its triple compound tread pattern ensures a perfect blend of grip and longevity, making it a versatile choice for riders who demand both control and speed.
Featuring a unique tread design, the Small Bird tyre has outer studs that are twice as high as those in the center, providing outstanding traction in corners without compromising rolling efficiency. This innovative layout reduces rolling resistance thanks to the lower-profile center ridge, allowing for faster, smoother rides. Additionally, the Flying Doctor casing option combines cotton and Kevlar for added sidewall protection and stability during aggressive cornering at low pressures.
Engineered to perform across varying terrain, the Dugast Small Bird is the ideal all-round tyre for cyclocross riders who encounter slippery surfaces, mud, or mixed courses. Its tubular construction and tailored ribbon width options cater to specific rim sizes, ensuring optimal fit and performance. The tan color and 700-33c sizing make it a stylish yet practical choice for serious racers and weekend warriors alike.
What makes the Small Bird different from other cyclocross tyres?
The Small Bird combines a triple compound tread with a unique stud height arrangement, delivering exceptional grip in corners while keeping rolling resistance low. Its cotton casing with neoprene coating also ensures durability and protection against moisture.
Can I use this tyre on any rim size?
It’s designed for rims with an inner width below 27 mm when fitted with the L ribbon. For wider rims, a different ribbon size (XL) would be necessary to ensure proper fit and performance.
