Although comparatively "toothless", the RC generates a lot of grip at the rear, the sticky rubber grips roots with vigour. On dry days, the front is also very good. The Italo tyre rolls well, the puncture protection values are in the midfield (puncture) and at the top level (puncture test).
Pirelli Scorpion XC RC ProWall
29 x 2.40Product details
The tread design is optimally tailored to the requirements of XC trails. Ideal for artificially constructed, technically demanding sections and natural terrain with hard gravel or loose rock. The RC was designed for racing, aimed at riders who want to master their bike on technically challenging tracks and maximize their speed. Thanks to the SmartGRIP compound, the XC RC is very durable and reliable. The tread of the Scorpion™ XC RC was developed in collaboration with XCO World Cup athletes: low and thick center knobs for the best rolling efficiency, and higher side knobs for cornering control. A tread design without compromises.
