At Lucioli, we don’t just build performance — we build it on physics.
Sir Isaac Newton taught us a simple but powerful truth:
Where:
Friction = Traction
μ = Coefficient of friction.
N = The normal force pressing the tire into the ground.
In plain words — the more pressure your tire applies to the terrain, the more grip you get.
That’s where Lucioli’s slightly heavier low-pressure system comes in. Unlike ultra-light alternatives that bounce and lose contact on rocks, roots, and loose terrain, the Lucioli setup increases the normal force and stabilizes the contact patch, delivering more consistent traction where riders need it most.
Heavier mass also helps your tire deform naturally, spreading the contact patch over more surface area.
That larger footprint means better bite, especially in mud, sand, and technical climbs. When the tire flexes evenly, it maintains grip instead of skipping across obstacles — giving you control and smooth power delivery even at extreme lean angles or low pressures.
Many riders fear weight, but here’s the truth:
A bit more rotational mass at the wheel improves stability and momentum. It acts like a flywheel — helping the tire roll through obstacles instead of deflecting off them.
The result?
1) Less wheel spin, 2) Smoother traction transitions, 3) Better balance in rough, unpredictable terrain, and 4) In off-road riding, that added stability is pure confidence — and that’s what Lucioli gives you.
Our system isn’t heavy by accident — it’s engineered for performance. The combination of added mass, improved tire deformation, and higher normal force results in a traction curve that stays strong even when conditions get ugly.
So yes, Lucioli weighs a little more — because it grips a lot more.
It’s not marketing talk. It’s Newtonian truth.
