Technology

Hiperwall
Hyperwall is new construction that improves driving and protecting from drilling to low pressures, key factors in off-road applications, especially in more demanding and aggressive ones such as Gravity and E-MTB, for which robustness of the heel and stability of the hips are fundamental pillars in performance. This innovation derived from the experience of Pirelli in the motocross has a height -high rubber reinforcement on both sides combined with a layer of additional fabric that connects it to the heel, stabilizing it (+10%) and protecting it and increasing the pinching resistance of the 50%. Stability and solidity are guaranteed without the aggravation of weight of a traditional bi-la. All this translates into lightness, flexibility of the tread and therefore in grip and handling even at low pressures (+25%).

Smartgrip compound
Decades of successes in the world motocross and rally worldwide led Pirelli engineers to develop an innovative compound: the SmartGrip compound for Scorpion ™ MTB, combining two opposite features: laceration resistance, for the maximum mechanical grip in dry conditions and at the same time maximum resistance to drilling; Chemical grip on wet surfaces, not to have to worry about the rain and the muddy and slimy route sections; The compound used is the result of an intense research and development process that has made it possible to obtain absolute performance both in dry and wet condition.  Drawings optimized for the consistency of the soils independent of the climatic condition, maximizing the surrender of the various geometries of the pieces present in the Scorpion ™ MTB range, for a truly compromised performance. With the Pirelli Scorpion ™ MTB range that usually face each other. The choice of the Monomescla solution offers high adherence in both dry and constantly wet conditions, even when the pieces begin to consume themselves.

Tubeless Ready
Tubeless Ready tires offer the biker many advantages: the possibility of using lower air pressure, which improve traction; a lower rolling resistance compared to a tire with an air chamber; A lower possibility of piercing because there is no air chamber. Tubeless Ready tires must be mounted on rims compatible with tubeless and require the use of a liquid sealing to maintain pressure. Liquid sealing have the further advantage of sealing small drips. Make sure to regularly check the sealant and replace it if necessary, because over time it drys out.
