Previously designed specifically for South African terrain the first edition of the Cape Cobra range was widely successful and the go to choice of many South African mountain bikers. It offered sidewall protection unlike any tyre at the time providing riders with a strong sense of confidence going through rocky terrain. A few years later however, Vittoria International released new technologies in their tyres that surpassed that of the Cape Cobra. The first editions of Cape Cobra’s then became redundant and outdated. Fast Forward to today and despite the newer technologies, South African riders are yet again demanding more protection than ever from their tyres. This is due to the relentless South African terrain and an increasing level of technicality in Mountain Bike races internationally.
