TECHNOLOGIES

SmartGrip Gravity compound
The SmartGRIP Gravity compound is the racing-ready option of the Scorpion MTB range, a formulation derived from a decade of motocross know-how and the valuable guidance of former downhill world champions. Thus a softer compound was created, resistant to tears, with greater grip in any weather, excellent grip and high-speed handling with a single-compound formulation. SmartGRIP Gravity is the answer to all bikers seeking a reliable tire to tackle every type of trail in training and racing thanks to its consistent performance over time and in every weather condition.

HyperWall
A new construction that improves handling and puncture protection at low pressures, key factors in off-road applications, especially in the most demanding and aggressive ones like Gravity and e-MTB, where the robustness of the bead and the stability of the sidewalls are fundamental pillars in performance. This innovation derived from Pirelli's experience in Motocross features a reinforced rubber height on both sidewalls joined to an additional fabric layer that connects to the bead, stabilizing (+10%) and protecting it and increasing resistance to pinches by 50%. Reaching a level of stiffness and stability under sidewall loads typical of downhill tires, without the weight burden of a traditional bi-tube. All this translates into lightness, tread flexibility and thus grip and handling even at low pressures (+25%).

Tubeless Ready
Tubeless-ready tires offer many advantages to the rider: the possibility of using lower air pressures, which improve traction; lower rolling resistance compared to a tire with an inner tube; lower chance of punctures because there is no inner tube. Tubeless-ready tires must be mounted on rims compatible with tubeless and require the use of a liquid sealant to maintain pressure. Liquid sealants have the additional advantage of sealing small punctures. Regularly check the sealant and replace it if necessary, because over time it dries out.
