PIRELLI SCORPION 29X2.2 MTB SC H XC LITE TIRE

Pirelli's off-road tire is called Scorpion MTB (a trademark of the company). As it was for the PZero Velo road tires that marked Pirelli's return to cycling, the choice of a meaningful name was deliberate. The Scorpion is historically known as Pirelli's Motocross tire, contributing to over 70 MX world titles. Like all Pirelli bike tires, the new MTB tire range was developed at Pirelli's innovation center, the R&D laboratories at Milano Bicocca. This is the main among the 11 Pirelli research centers worldwide, investing approximately 200 million euros annually in tire development and innovation with over 1000 dedicated researchers. The SmartGrip Compound, the core of the new tire, is produced at Pirelli's Racing facilities, where the compounds for the renowned F1 tires are also engineered.

Each size has dedicated development
Pirelli's extensive experience in Motocross over the years played a crucial role, especially in defining the tread patterns of the Scorpion MTB range. The shape and height of the knobs, spacing, cross-link, and angles were studied for maximum efficiency on specific terrains. When designing the new tires based on terrain consistency, Pirelli's engineers had to consider many variables, from the rider's driving style to the latest developments in rim profiles and sizes. Therefore, the construction technology for the new Scorpion MTB tires varies for different sizes: each size benefits from dedicated development. The combination and interaction of structures, reinforcements, static and dynamic properties of the compound, sizes, and different tread patterns for various terrains have been an area of technical innovation for Pirelli, emphasizing their approach to product development based on consumer-specific needs. The Scorpion MTB range allows riders to freely choose the size that best suits their riding style without compromising performance.

PIRELLI SCORPION 29X2.2 MTB SC H XC LITE KEY FEATURES:

  • The Scorpion H (Hard Terrain - red) is designed for hard terrains, compact and rocky surfaces.
  • Lite: This is the lightest version of the Hard tire with even lower rolling resistance. Low profile and compact tread for fast and secure riding on any hard terrain, both dry and wet.
  • Grip: SmartGrip Compound for uncompromised grip on dry and wet surfaces.
  • Maneuverability: A model designed to be compatible with modern wide-profile rims.
  • Damping: Tubeless-ready 120 TPI casing for greater stability and grip with a modern low-pressure riding style.
  • Protection: Cut-resistant compound that offers superior puncture resistance and balanced protection without compromising performance.

TECHNOLOGY:

  • SmartGrip Compound: Grip on dry and wet surfaces without compromising performance. The heart of Pirelli's MTB tire technology is the innovative SmartGrip Compound. Thanks to this specific compound, the "weather" variable does not affect the performance of the new tires, designed to provide grip and handling in any weather condition. Just as SmartNettm Silica addressed the trade-off between rolling resistance and wet grip in PZero Velo road tires, SmartGrip Compound in Scorpion MTB closes the gap between tear resistance and grip on wet surfaces.
