- TT stands for time trial
- Entire tours are decided in the fight against the clock
- This is reason enough to offer particularly fast tyres
- While it was conceived as a time trial tyre, the Podium TT is also very popular with professionals for normal races
- The reason for this is its construction
- Thanks to the latest Black Chili Compound, this chrono specialist is not only super fast, but its Vectran Breaker offers excellent puncture prevention
- In addition, the 22 mm width version of the Podium is lightweight at only 225 g
- A low weight means low rotation energy
- The thickness of the tread was reduced to 0.7 mm, which is still enough for a few tough race days
- The ultrafast slick tread shows how fast it really is even when it's not moving
- Handmade in Germany
