Pirelli Scorpion XC H ProWall SmartGrip 29x2.40 TLR Black Tire

Pirelli expands its presence into the offroad world and in Sicily presents Scorpion MTB, its first line of tires dedicated to Mountain Bikes. The defining concept of the new Pirelli product line is the offer of a range of models designed according to the variety of terrains, based on their consistency, from compact to loose. Easily understandable and developed for every specific need, the Scorpion MTB line is accompanied by dedicated engineering for each individual size and version. Scorpion MTB offers every consumer the tire best suited to their usual Riding (terrain, style, wheel profile). The result is a line of tires that guarantees top-level performance in each of the chosen sizes or versions, regardless of weather conditions.

Each tire has its dedicated development
The extensive experience gained by Pirelli over years in Motocross has been put to use, particularly in defining the tread patterns of the Scorpion MTB range: shape and height of the knobs, spacing, cross-link, and angles have been studied for maximum footprint efficiency on the specific surfaces ridden. When designing the new tires based on terrain consistency, Pirelli's engineers also had to consider many other variables: from the rider's style to the latest developments in rim profiles and sizes. For this reason, in the new Scorpion MTB the construction technology is not the same for all tire sizes: each size benefits from dedicated development. The combination and interaction of structures, reinforcements, static and dynamic properties of the compound, sizes, and different patterns for various terrains has been a technical innovation area for Pirelli in terms of product development approach. As per Pirelli's DNA, which develops all its products focusing on the specific needs of the consumer, the Scorpion MTB range allows the rider to freely choose the size that best suits their riding style, without fearing compromises on performance.
