Pirelli Scorpion Race DH T
$119.99Description:
The Pirelli Scorpion Race DH T is a premium downhill mountain bike tire crafted for intense, high-speed, and rugged trail demands. This model is part of Pirelli’s Scorpion lineup, leveraging Pirelli’s motorsports expertise to provide exceptional control, grip, and resilience under extreme conditions.
Key Features:
SmartGRIP Compound: This tire uses a proprietary single-compound rubber designed to deliver consistent performance across wet and dry conditions. Unlike multi-compound tires, the SmartGRIP offers durability without sacrificing grip as the tread wears, which is crucial for maintaining control on downhill terrain.
HyperWall Casing: Designed specifically for aggressive downhill and gravity riding, the HyperWall casing offers robust sidewall support and puncture resistance. It incorporates extra nylon fabric around the bead area and a reinforced rubber insert to enhance stability, especially under the low tire pressures typical in downhill riding.
Tread Pattern for Varied Terrain: The Scorpion Race DH T features deep, widely spaced knobs that handle mixed and soft terrain exceptionally well. This design improves mud-shedding and increases traction on loose surfaces, enabling riders to maintain control on steep and technical descents.
Tubeless-Ready: This tire is tubeless-ready, allowing for lower air pressures and better grip on technical terrain. Its sturdy construction means it mounts easily and holds air well even in rough conditions.
