Effetto - Vitamina CL Sealant Additive 200ml

Vitamina CL is a sealant additive, made to mix with Cafflatex sealant.

Added directly inside the tyre to Cafflatex, V-CL increases the maximum repairable puncture size, while reducing repairing time and pressure loss.

Vitamina CL helps Cafflatex fix bigger punctures, faster, with lower pressure loss

Race-day performance on demand

The mixing happens directly inside the tubeless tyre

Specification

Sizes
Vitamina CL comes in re-selable jars of 200 ml, with a 5 ml spoon. One jar of V-CL is enough additive for 2000 ml of Cafflatex.

Why they created it?
Cafflatex is a reliable, well-functioning sealant. Cyclists of all levels and ambitions, worldwide, use it and love it: it can be injected through the valve, it doesnt contain ammonia and it foams up when agitated (ensuring an optimal covering of the internal tyre surface). For those who would like an even higher protection for race day or an important event - instead of adding a more concentrated (and less durable) sealant to our offering - we opted to develop a specific stand alone product, to boost the puncture repairing ability of Cafflatex, on demand.

Vitamina CL (or V-CL) is a polymeric powder with a very precise particle size and density, to easily mix with Cafflatex directly inside the tubeless tyre.

How it works
Added directly inside the tubeless tyre to Cafflatex, 10% of V-CL (for example 5 ml of V-CL for 50 ml of Cafflatex) increases the maximum repairable puncture size from 4 5 mm to 8 mm (and more), with shorter repairing time and lower pressure loss.

Extensive field testing with professional teams has proven V-CL is easy to work with and very effective. We recommend V-CL for racing applications. A more frequent tubeless valve maintenance should be taken into account when using Cafflatex in conjunction with V-CL.

How to use it
The bigger particles of Vitamina CL wont pass through the tubeless Presta valve easily, so the best practice is as follows:

With the tubeless tyre mounted on the rim, open it on one side on a 10 cm length and add Cafflatex (for a precise recommended quantity given the tyre type and size click here)

Add 10% of V-CL directly inside the tyre. EXAMPLE: if the recommended quantity of sealant for the specific tyre is 100 ml, then 2 spoons (10 ml) of V-CL should be added. V-CL comes with a 5 ml measuring spoon inside its jar.

NOTE: its important to pour V-CL on the sealant, to wet the powder and help it spread evenly.
