Corsa PRO Race Performance in an All-Black Finish.
The Vittoria Corsa PRO Black is a special-edition tubeless-ready road tyre for riders wanting top-level speed, grip and road feel in a clean all-black finish. Metallic silver graphics complete the understated look.
Underneath the colour scheme is the same race-focused construction as the standard Corsa PRO, combining Vittoria’s Graphene + Silica compound with a supple 320 TPI cotton casing. It is available in 700x28c and 700x30c sizes.
Graphene + Silica Race Compound
Vittoria’s Race Formulation uses Graphene and Silica to balance low rolling resistance with dependable cornering grip in wet and dry conditions. An anti-puncture belt and Bead Shield add protection without taking away the smooth, responsive feel expected from a premium race tyre.
Supple 320 TPI Cotton Casing
The high-thread-count cotton casing helps the tyre conform to the road surface. This improves feedback and cornering control while taking some of the harshness out of coarse chip seal and rougher tarmac.
Vittoria electrically cures the tread to the casing, creating a seamless construction designed to improve suppleness and aerodynamics.
Tubeless-Ready Construction
The Corsa PRO Black can be installed on a compatible tubeless rim using suitable valves and ammonia-free sealant. Vittoria warns against sealants containing ammonia because they may damage the tyre casing or tubeless insert. Set the pressure to suit your tyre size, rim width, rider weight and road conditions.
Hookless Rim Compatibility
The 28c and 30c sizes are compatible with suitable hookless road rims. Check that your rim width and tyre combination comply with current ETRTO guidance and the rim manufacturer’s approved tyre list. Never exceed the lower maximum pressure specified by the tyre or rim manufacturer.

Who Is This Tyre For?
The Corsa PRO Black suits road racers, fast club riders and performance-focused cyclists who want the grip and smooth feel of a cotton-casing race tyre. The all-black finish is also a good option when traditional tan Corsa sidewalls do not suit the bike.
For high-mileage training, frequent riding on debris-covered roads or durability as the main priority, a tougher road tyre such as the Vittoria Corsa N.EXT or RideArmor may be the more practical choice.
Our Thoughts
The Corsa PRO is one of those tyres you can feel straight away. It rolls smoothly, takes the edge off rough chip seal and gives plenty of confidence when leaning the bike into a fast corner.
The Black edition gives you that same Corsa PRO performance without the traditional tan sidewalls. Correct setup still matters, so match the tyre to your rim and choose pressure based on the actual measured tyre width rather than simply pumping it to the maximum printed pressure.
