Do you think the vittorias are getting less punctures compared to the pro race's for you because maybe you changed your route or style of riding?
Nope.
People have commented on the relative thinness of the Vittoria Open Corsa's, I hadn't noticed. I've only noticed getting less flats. Could it be better threading? Who knows? I sure don't.
