TECHNOLOGIES

HyperWALL
The third innovation that Pirelli brings to the cycling world from its background in Motorsport: a new construction of the bead and sidewalls that further increases tire performance in terms of low-pressure maneuverability and puncture resistance. Particularly in Offroad applications, especially in the most demanding ones like Gravity and e-MTB, the integrity of the bead area and the stability of the sidewalls are a key point for the overall tire performance: the tread with its sophisticated compound relies heavily on the behavioral characteristics of these two elements. Pirelli has introduced a construction that firmly fixes the bead and the rubber sidewall insert with a woven fabric flipper, making them behave as a single solid piece rather than separate components with relative movements to each other. The advantage of this innovation in numbers: Better bead stability (+10%"). Greater pinch resistance (+50%"). Better maneuverability at low pressures (+25%). Increased cut resistance.

SmartGRIP Compound
SmartGrip Compound is a compound that uses the most advanced chemical technologies to achieve two typically antithetical characteristics in the off-road world: mechanical resistance and chemical grip. This formulation allows reaching such a level of performance that it can be used throughout the rubber layer that makes up the tread. The use of a single compound ensures that performance does not decrease as the tread wears, a critical issue typical of multi-layer compounds. Pirelli chooses the best compound for each tread and each size, no compromise between grip and handling on dry and wet surfaces.
