Details of the Pirelli Scorpion XC RC

Race Compound Rubber compound

Developed by Pirelli technology engineers and manufactured in motorsport laboratories, the Race Compound offers the perfect balance between rolling resistance and control. Designed to provide maximum control and speed on a variety of surfaces, it ensures a safe and precise ride in all conditions. At the same time, it offers excellent tear resistance, which increases protection against punctures. Used in a single layer and across the entire tread depth, without inserts made from lower-quality compounds, it delivers consistent performance throughout the life of the tires, even when worn.

ProWALL Carcass

The ProWALL features sidewall protection that improves puncture resistance and handling at low air pressure. The side wall is reinforced with an additional layer of nylon, which increases resistance to punctures and cuts while stabilizing the tires at low air pressure for safe riding on any terrain. The ProWALL is a reliable option for XC racing, trail riding, and enduro use.

 

Note: Tubeless Ready tires require tubeless compatible rims/wheels, tubeless valves, tubeless rim tape and sealing fluid for tubeless mounting. Sealant fluid is not required for tubeless UST tires, but is recommended for increased puncture protection. Installation should only be carried out by qualified personnel.
