Every scorpion has its habitat; every biker has their own riding style.
The new Scorpion™ Gravity line was developed with your riding style in mind. Whether you’re looking for maximum speed, the perfect balance between control and versatility, or maximum traction on the most challenging terrain - there’s a Scorpion™ tire designed just for you.
BlackSting, Red Claw, and Emperor each have a clearly defined character: With a modular system of tread patterns, casings, and compounds, every rider can customize their ideal setup.
Inspired by racing performance and engineered for modern gravity riding, the new Scorpion™ series maximizes grip, support, and durability - even when you’re pushing your limits.
Inspired by the Emperor scorpion, the largest and strongest of its kind in the animal kingdom, the new Pirelli Scorpion Emperor embodies absolute adaptability. Just as the emperor scorpion thrives across different terrains without hesitation, the tire is engineered to dominate every surface with confidence and control. Designed to perform in any condition, thanks to its size, the Scorpion Emperor adapts across different terrains, delivering
fearless performance wherever the trail leads. Its tread pattern, optimized across 2.4 to 2.6 sizes, achieves the perfect balance between knob compactness and spacing. The result is an ideal compromise between rolling efficiency and uncompromising grip, ensuring speed, traction, and total rider confidence at every moment.
Whether used as a front tire paired with a Blacksting on the front and rear for maximum efficiency, or mounted as a complete set for balanced performance, the Scorpion Emperor is the ultimate solution for all conditions. It is engineered to suit any bike and riding style, from aggressive trail riding to the most demanding, race-oriented downhill tracks.
The DHWALL+ casing is specifically developed for downhill and enduro racing. It features a full dual-ply 60 TPI construction combined with a bead reinforcement insert and an additional external fabric layer designed to stabilise the tyre sidewall. Developed with feedback from professional athletes, DHWALL+ is our strongest and most durable casing, providing exceptional support during cornering and under heavy loads at high speeds. It is the preferred choice for riders who demand maximum support, durability and confidence in the most demanding conditions.
The Supersoft compound has been developed to deliver the highest levels of grip and damping, even in the most extreme conditions and racing environments. Its softer formulation enhances the tyre’s ability to conform to the terrain, improving traction and control through the most technical and high-speed sections. Perfect for racing and the toughest terrain, it is the ideal choice when grip and precision are non-negotiable.
