TIRE PIRELLI P ZERO RACE TLR 28-622 GOLD 700X28

TIRE PIRELLI P ZERO RACE TLR 28-622 GOLD 700X28

The new P Zero Race TLRs are the first PIRELLI tubeless technology product made entirely in Italy, at the new Bollate factory.

The new generation of the PZERO Race TLR is the most performing tire in the PIRELLI portfolio as well as the first tubeless technology tire entirely made in Italy. The introduction of the SPEEDCORE technology in the 120tpi carcass involves the use of a mixed aramid-containing compound that coats the inner layer of the tire, improving both rolling resistance and tire durability. Result: a tire that is less rigid but faster. The compound also maintains the same advanced SmartEVO technology, shared with the other high-performance PZERO tires.

TECHNOLOGIES

The racing formulation for the most advanced road use ever, born from Pirelli’s experience in top Motorsport competitions and the specific collaboration with World Tour factory teams. The new SmartEVO Compound uses a blend of 3 different polymers, each providing performance in a perfect balance of opposing characteristics, such as grip and rolling resistance. The ternary polymer blend with “intelligent” behavior characteristics forms the basis of SmartEvo’s exceptional properties, enabling better grip on dry and wet surfaces while improving rolling resistance. SmartEVO Compound is a high-performance compound tuned for the most modern cycling disciplines, from local races or World Tour events to epic adventures where weather and road surfaces require tires that excel in all conditions. SmartEVO is exclusively used in the P ZERO range.

SPEEDCORE

The most performing tubeless-ready road structure in the Pirelli range uses a layer of aramid-containing compound that coats the inner layer of the tire to enable air retention. This new structure makes the tire more resistant thanks to the aramid, but at the same time less rigid and faster, due to greater flexibility of the compound compared to a bead-to-bead fabric. The casing is completed by a 120tpi nylon layer and a puncture protection layer, also in aramid.
