Pirelli Scorpion™ XC RH, 29x2.4, ProWALL,120tpi, Race XC Compound, Retro



Extremely fast rolling for maximum speed on hard XC surfaces



Designed for maximum performance on fast, hard surfaces, the new Pirelli Scorpion™ XC RH is a race-oriented MTB tire built for pure speed. The low-profile, fast-rolling center pattern minimizes rolling resistance, while distinctive side lugs provide reliable grip and control in technical passages.



At the heart of the Scorpion™ XC RH is Race XC Compound, a high-performance rubber compound developed from the proven experience of Pirelli Motorsport engineers for the most demanding cycling disciplines. Specially formulated for XC racing, it guarantees ultra-fast steering response, explosive acceleration and superior pedalling efficiency.







This tire is already the number one choice for the Pirelli XC and Marathon teams at the World Cup. Ideal for those looking for the ultimate advantage in rolling speed and efficiency: the RH combines record rolling efficiency with the control needed to tackle all modern XC disciplines.

TECHNOLOGY



Race XC Compound rubber compound

Developed by Pirelli engineers and manufactured in Italy, Race XC Compound is the perfect combination of performance and reliability. Proven by victories and podium finishes - from the World Cup to the Cape Epic - it is the fastest compound in Pirelli's MTB range. Designed for maximum chemical grip even on wet surfaces, this compound provides confidence in any conditions.



It also provides high tear resistance for better puncture protection. Thanks to the construction of a single-component rubber compound over the entire tread area and thickness, without combining it with other inferior materials, it retains its properties throughout the life of the tyre, even with progressive tread wear



ProWALL construction

Reinforced sidewalls for greater protection and stability at low jacket pressures. 120 TPI multi-layer nylon with reinforced sidewall technology. The result is reinforced sidewall protection and improved handling.
