Modern XC courses are getting gnarlier, but are your lightweight race tires holding you back or helping you win? James heads out to his local loop to put the new Vittoria XC Trail casing head-to-head against the classic XC Race casing to see if the extra puncture protection is worth the weight penalty. Using power meter data and timed laps, we find out if using a trail casing on your XC bike is a smart move for everyday riding or a total speed killer.
