Challenge Pista Handmade Ultra Tubular Track Tyre - Cream - 1000tpi
Consumer Product Safety Bulletin - March 13, 2019
Whether the surface is wood or concrete, this unmatched tyre holds the sprinter's line like nothing else. The Pista's silk (seta) casing with more than 1,000 threads-per-inch, a tread that is fast-rolling and grippy in the corners, and our seamless latex inner tube makes for a stellar track tyre that's race-day light, super supple for a sweet ride, and ready to carry you to victory after victory. The latex tube is lighter, thinner and more flexible than a butyl tube, increasing your comfort, lowering your rolling resistance, and helping to prevent flats. The tube also includes a removable core Presta valve.

ULTRA series tyres use sealed silk (SETA) casings with 1000tpi (threads per inch) which that allows the tyre to perform at the ultimate level.
Silk is a strong, very soft, natural fibre material. Amazing for performance tyre casings but expensive and the difficult construction means they are kept almost exclusively for the highest level of competition.
The sealant for the tyre casing is the same "S" treatment as used on the TE and SC series tyres.
Latex Inner Tube - Used in Challenge tubular and tubeless tubular tyres. Available as accessory inner tubes for clincher tyres. Challenge's own latex formula delivers higher resistance to punctures due to elasticity. Unique seamless construction, no bumps for smooth ride. Lightweight, supple performance for less rolling resistance than rubber butyl tubes. Will require more regular inflation
