PIRELLI P ZERO RACE TLR WHITE 28-622 700X28 TIRE

The new P Zero Race TLR is the first PIRELLI product with tubeless technology entirely made in Italy, at the new factory in Bollate.

The new generation of PZERO Race TLR is the most performing tire in the PIRELLI portfolio, in addition to being the first tire with tubeless technology entirely made in Italy. The introduction of the new SPEEDCORE technology in the 120tpi carcass involves the use of a mixed aramid compound that covers the inner layer of the tire, improving both the smoothness and the resistance of the tire. Result: a tire that is less rigid but faster. The compound retains the same advanced SmartEVO technology, shared with other high-performance tires in the PZERO range.

Technologies:

SmartEVO Compound

The racing formulation for the most advanced road use ever, born from Pirelli's experience in top Motorsport competitions and specific collaboration with World Tour factory teams. The new SmartEVO Compound uses a mixture of 3 different polymers, each providing performance in a perfect balance of opposite characteristics, such as grip and smoothness. The ternary mixture of polymers with "intelligent" behavior characteristics as the basis of the exceptional properties of the SmartEvo compound allows better grip on dry and wet surfaces, while improving rolling resistance. SmartEVO Compound is a high-performance compound developed for the most modern cycling disciplines, from local races or the World Tour, to epic adventures where weather and road surfaces require tires that excel in all circumstances. SmartEVO is exclusive to the P ZERO range.

SPEEDCORE

The most performing tubeless-ready road structure in the Pirelli range involves the use of a layer of mixed aramid compound that covers the inner layer of the tire allowing it to hold air. This new structure makes the tire more resistant, thanks to the presence of aramid, but at the same time less rigid and faster, due to the greater flexibility of the compound compared to a bead-to-bead fabric. The carcass is then completed by a Nylon canvas in 120tpi and an anti-puncture layer, also in aramid.
