Pirelli Cinturato Gravel RC Bicycle Tire
The Pirelli Cinturato Gravel RC is a gravel racing-specific tire, derived from our experience in the biggest competitions around the world and the feedback of our PRO athletes. The Pirelli Scorpion XC RC inspires the tread design, focusing on two key features: higher average speed on straight and fast lines, and improved lateral grip when off-road cornering. The Pirelli Cinturato Gravel RC is compatible with hookless rims according to the ETRTO 5bar/73psi max pressure limit.
COMPOUND, CASING, TECHNOLOGIES
Pirelli SpeedGRIP COMPOUND:
The Pirelli SpeedGRIP Compound is a gravel-specific rubber formulation born from the Pirelli experience in the World Rally Championship where speed and grip on and off-road are crucial. This chemical formulation relies on the polymer matrix of the MTB-specific Pirelli SmartGRIP Compound while lowering its rolling resistance. The gravel application requires good speed and on-off-road capabilities, for this reason, our engineers tweaked the compound features towards better energy efficiency with a little compromise on the grip, resulting in a predictable compound with solid performances on and off the road.
Pirelli TechWall Gravel:
Pirelli engineers wisely combined the technologies derived from road-specific reinforced casings with the MTB-specific casings to obtain our most advanced gravel casing whose performances are obtained with the use of special fabric reinforcements and thicker layers of rubber in specific areas of the tire. On the road, the majority of punctures are caused by the penetration of sharp objects while off-road the most common punctures are caused by sidewall cuts, for this reason, the Pirelli TechWALL Gravel features a cut-resistant 120tpi fabric all over the perimeter of the tire still offering a supple riding feeling.
