Tire Pirelli Scorpion™ XC RC, 29x2.4, ProWALL, 120tpi, Race XC Compound, gold lettering
Modern concept of races on mixed terrain
The World Cup-proven tire is back – enhanced with the latest technology for modern cross-country racers. The new Pirelli XC RC takes the iconic pattern trusted by champions and takes it further: with more volume, a more angular profile, an all-new rubber compound and an advanced construction. Designed to be 7% faster than the previous version, it delivers the speed and control on the mixed surfaces that define XC today - from man-made rocky passages to natural trails. The new XC RC combines race-proven design with new generation innovation for maximum safety and precision.
Main improvements:
- Larger volume for better comfort and control at high speeds
- More angular profile for better stability and consistent behavior in corners
- New Race XC Compound for an ideal balance between grip and low rolling resistance
- New shell construction for low weight and durability at the same time
Features:
• Race XC Compound - One-component compound for constant racing performance.
• Braid – multi-layer nylon braid with a density of 120tpi for light weight and great rolling.
• ProWALL construction – Reinforced sidewalls for greater protection and stability at low pressures in the casings.
• Tubeless-Ready – TLR technology for easy mounting and bead stability on modern wide rims.

TECHNOLOGY:
Race XC Compound rubber mixture
Developed by Pirelli engineers and manufactured in Italy, the Race XC Compound represents the perfect combination of performance and reliability. Proven by victories and podium finishes - from the World Cup to the Cape Epic - it is the fastest compound in Pirelli's MTB range. Designed for maximum chemical adhesion even on wet surfaces, this compound provides confidence in any conditions.
At the same time, it offers excellent tear resistance, which means excellent mechanical traction and increased protection against defects. Thanks to the single-component composition, performance remains consistent throughout the life of the tire - even with sample wear - and delivers balanced behavior from the center to the sides of the tire, which guarantees stable feedback in every racing situation and technical passage.
ProWALL construction
Reinforced sidewalls for greater protection and stability at low tire pressures. Multi-layer nylon 120 TPI with reinforced sidewall technology. The result is reinforced protection of the sidewalls and better controllability.

PSI - indicates the pressure to which the manufacturer recommends inflating the tire. 1 atmosphere = 14.7 PSI
TPI (EPI) - the density of the shell's skeleton fibres. The higher the TPI value, the more flexible and flexible the tire will be.
Kevlar tire - foot made of Kevlar fibres. The cover can be folded, so it is more practical when moving or storing. It is characterized by a lower weight compared to wire casings and a higher resistance to puncture.
Wire tire- bead made of wire. The shell is inflexible, it is heavier than the Kevlar one.
