Dugast Pipisquallo (Cotton/Neoprene) Cyclocross Tyre

Built for fast tracks, the Dugast Pipisquallo (Cotton/Neoprene) Cyclocross Tyre combines a 100% cotton casing with a neoprene coating and a handmade tubular construction.

Specifically developed for the demands of cyclocross (CX) racing, this tyre features a diamond tread design with Rhino side knobs for grip on slightly wet track, grass and in the woods. Another highlight is its 100% cotton casing with high thread-per-inch (TPI), which offers increased puncture resistance, more elasticity, lower rolling resistance and better handling in corners. Used and loved by most professional riders, and winners of races and championships, Dugast joined the Vittoria Group in May 2021.

Neoprene Coating

Invented and first used by A Dugast, the Neoprene Coating is a special protection coating applied to A Dugast tyres to extend their lifetime preventing the tyre casing to absorb humidity and mud. The Neoprene Coating is a 0.1 mm-thick layer of silicon applied with a brush on the tyre casing filling the empty spaces in the yarn. The coating prevents water and debris to penetrate the casing as well as preventing aggressive cleaners to deteriorate the casing material. Thanks to the Neoprene Coating, A Dugast tyres are easy to clean and last longer. More importantly, the coating does not affect the tyre functionality and comfort.

Base Rim Tape

As the use of wheels with disc brakes and the use of larger tyres are increasingly popular, A Dugast offers Cross tyres with a wider base tape for a better fit with larger rims. The larger base tape increases the protection of the tubular sidewall from snakebites.

Handmade in the Netherlands

A Dugast tyres are handmade in the Netherlands by true craftsmen of bicycle tyres. Through their expertise, yarns, glue and rubber are assembled to create some of the finest tubulars available in the market. A Dugast tyre casings are made with mastery starting from raw cotton and silk yarns, on which rubber tread is glued with extreme precision. All the steps of tyre making are performed by experienced technicians having deep knowledge of cyclists’ requirements and needs.
