Product description
Pirelli Scorpion XC S Folding Tyre 29x2.20" black (black)
Scorpion MTB Soft Terrain is a mountain bike tyre designed for soft and inhomogeneous surfaces. This tread pattern has been designed with high tread blocks at greater intervals to allow the tyre to ride where it sinks easily and to eject the accumulated ground material without deforming. This allows it to guarantee high directional stability and absolute grip even under demanding and difficult conditions.
The use of the special SmartGRIP compound guarantees a strong impression and high tear resistance to guarantee a good grip in all weather conditions: Your best competitor for off-road performance.
The Scorpion 2.2" convinces by a tear-resistant mixture of the flanks azf 120 tpi and an additional reinforcement of the flanks on 120 tpi, which is equipped with an improved stab and cut protection, without impairing the smooth running performance in the slightest way.
Grip
The SmartGRIP Compound ensures a strong grip even on wet surfaces. The weather cannot impair grip in either dry or wet conditions.
Handling
Optimized tread pattern for state-of-the-art aluminium or carbon rims with wide inner groove
Damping
The Tubeless Ready 120 tpi carcass has been specially designed to absorb vibrations and to provide a more stable ride with lower tyre pressures and wider contact patch.
SmartGRIP
SmartGRIP Compound is a rubber compound based on the latest chemical technologies and provides two typical properties that are normally contradictory in the off-road sector: mechanical strength and chemical grip. The performance level of this compound allows it to be used for the entire rubber layer that makes up the tread.
The use of a single compound ensures that there is no reduction in performance as wear increases, which is a critical problem with different compounds in multiple layers. Pirelli selects the best compound for each tread pattern and size without sacrificing grip and handling on dry and wet surfaces.
