Vittoria Corsa Pro Control review: stylish and more resilient than their Corsa Pro counterparts, but far slower

Stylish with plenty of tech from the super-fast Corsa Pro Speed, but the added puncture protection drops the rolling resistance dramatically

Cyclingnews Verdict

Grippy, with great puncture proofing and stylish, but the rolling resistance doesn’t lie. Although it features the same compound as the blisteringly fast Corsa Pro Speed, the thicker more resistant tread hits the CRR. It’s hard to recommend the😼se over the faster, lighter and cheaper Vittoria Corsa N.EXT.
