Pirelli P ZERO™ Race Retro 26-622, SPEEDCore, 127tpi, SmartEVO, Retro



PURE PERFORMANCE



HANDLING - SPEED - GRIP

Drawing on World Tour racing experience and a constant drive for perfection, Pirelli's developers have succeeded in developing the iconic brand's most powerful all-round racing tyre. The P ZERO™ Race is designed to maximise all the benefits of its construction, using a race-ready inner tube that outperforms all previous road inner tubes and even Pirelli's galoshes. After three years of development in collaboration with the fastest riders on the World Tour, including the 2019 UCI Champion and World Champion, Pirelli has succeeded in designing this new inner tube with a new SmartEVO rubber compound and TechBELT braid construction technology. All professional cyclists, as well as all cycling enthusiasts, are offered this excellent product.

TECHNOLOGY



SmartEVO rubber compound

The new SmartEVO rubber compound uses a blend of 3 different polymers, each providing specific performance qualities to achieve an optimal balance of opposing properties such as grip and rolling resistance. Pirelli has used its knowledge and experience of over 100 years in the development of rubber compounds for motorsport, where these products have always been used in top level racing in all disciplines. This extensive knowledge from the development and racing departments has enabled Pirelli to create a triple polymer compound with "smart" performance properties for bicycle tyres and forms the basis for the outstanding characteristics of the SmartEVO compound - improved dry and wet grip, while at the same time reducing rolling resistance. Pirelli has created a performance rubber compound designed and tuned for all modern road cycling disciplines, from local or World Tour races to epic adventures where the climate and varied surfaces demand tyres that perform reliably at the highest level in all circumstances.



TechBELT

High performance braid structure with an added layer of high puncture resistant fabric under the tread to allow the jacket to provide excellent puncture resistance in a wide range of conditions. The combination of this layer and the skeleton layers of the braid allows for the most effective rolling resistance and weight parameters for this structure for use with the inner tube.
