The
Bomboloni is Vittoria's first offering in the
fatbike and
plusbike size range. Starting with the tread design Vittoria looked to the automotive industry and technology used in snow tires for cars. The square-stepped lugs are siped at alternating angles for additional grip on wet roots, mossy rocks and snowy trails.
Vittoria uses their TnT (Tube -No-Tube)
tubeless ready casing to make setting up the
Bomboloni tubeless with your favorite sealant a snap, but the tire can be used with tubes if you prefer to go the traditional route. If you don''t have a favorite sealant, we recommend
Orange Seal Sub Zero for cold weather riding and fatbike set-ups. For excellent performance at low pressures that the wide tire and
tubeless set-up affords,
Vittoria uses a
120tpi construction. Having a higher thread count lets the
Bomboloni flatten out more evenly on the trail side of the tire to make sure you are making the most of the knobs you have.
120tpi casing tires will also give you better ride compliance vs a less expensive 27 or 60tpi tires. The TnT casing also offers some additional cut resistance when compared to
Vittoria''s standard casing.
The
27.5plus Bomboloni measures 27.5x3.0" (79-584 for those fans of the metric system) and has an average
weight of 890g. As with all 27.5plus tires, they will work best on a rim around 40-60mm wide. If have a "Boost" 29er mountain bike chances are your frame will accept a 27.5plus wheelset if you would like to go wide without changing your entire rig.

The
Bomboloni 27.5plus tire is set to work with the growing number of 27.5plus bikes that are coming to the market as fast as the factories can produce them. At
890g the
Bomboloni is a bit lighter than most of the factory tires coming on bikes like the Salsa Pony Rustler, Cannondale Beast of the East, or Specialized Stumpjumper Fattie.
