The Pirelli Scorpion XC RC Team Tyre is tailor - made for the toughest XC courses. Developed hand - in - hand with Pirelli's top athletes, it guarantees outstanding racing performance. Whether you're a pro racer pushing your limits or seeking peak performance in any racing scenario, this tyre is your go - to choice. The tread pattern, designed in collaboration with XCO World Cup athletes, is a game - changer. Its low - profile design with thick central knobs slashes rolling resistance, while the taller lateral knobs ensure lightning - fast cornering control. The SmartGRIP Compound, born from motorsport expertise, offers unwavering high - grip performance in both wet and dry conditions, even as the tread wears. The LITE version tyres, with a lighter carcass, maximize rolling efficiency and enhance the riding feel, giving you an extra speed boost. Plus, the ProWALL sidewall reinforcement technology not only protects against punctures but also improves handling at low pressures.
Using your Pirelli Scorpion XC RC Team Tyre is straightforward. Just mount it on your mountain bike wheels according to the standard procedure. When riding, you'll notice the excellent performance on different XC courses. Whether it's a dry track or a wet one, the tyre's grip will keep you in control. For safety, always check the tyre pressure before each ride. A proper pressure ensures good handling and reduces the risk of punctures. To maintain your tyre, clean it regularly with mild soap and water after a muddy ride. This helps to keep the tread clean and the compound in good condition. Avoid riding over sharp objects as much as possible to prevent damage to the ProWALL sidewall reinforcement. If you're using the LITE version, be a bit more cautious as the lighter carcass, while great for speed, may be a bit more vulnerable. And that's it! With these simple steps, you can enjoy a long - lasting and high - performance riding experience.
