Description The Hi Composite Carbon is one of Tufo's Special line of tubular tires designed for high performance and a reasonable price. The Hi-Composite Carbon incorporates a higher carbon content in the tread material and a special composite-material flat-protection barrier, allowing a thinner tread to be used while still retaining good wear properties. The thin tread reduces rolling resistance and improved road feel, making this a great tire for road and stage races.
305 tpi under the tread. 700x22. 260g. 115 psi to 175 psi recommended pressure range.

A great long distance tubular trainer.
I've used this tire in the spring showers, and the fall down pours. I have put loads of miles on these babys and they are still going strong. These tires wear very slowly but have a great feel. I would recommend these tires to any one that wants to train or log some serious miles on a set of tubulars.

Great tires at an unbeatable price
I have ridden many hundreds of miles on these tires without a flat. Their durability is the best I have seen. the road feel is not quite as good as some other tires I have ridden, but given the price and the confidence of not getting a flat these are the only tires I run on my good bikes. It should be noted that these tires are not stitched together and therefore cannot be repaired. However, the Tufo sealant will fix just about anything.
