Product Description
The Cinturato Gravel RC has been designed for all types of gravel racing: on the road, on gravel or on rough terrain. The new tire has been developed to meet the needs of the fastest gravel athletes: Smoothness and speed in compact and straight sections and maximum grip to tackle every corner with confidence and at any speed. The gravel tire is characterized by a special tread pattern: high, penetrating shoulder knobs and lower, denser knobs in the middle area. The Speed-Grip rubber compound offers a long service life, excellent chemical grip on wet surfaces and low rolling resistance, which is very similar to that of a pure road tire. The 60 TPI nylon carcass is protected by the TechWALL Gravel "belt", which surrounds the rubber from bead to bead. This provides additional reinforcement and protection against cuts without compromising the tire's rolling resistance and handling characteristics.The Cinturato Gravel RC is the new all-purpose weapon among the Pirelli gravel tires for mixed terrain with varying ground conditions. The tread pattern was derived from Pirelli's own Scorpion XC RC MTB tire. With its minimal lug arrangement on the central tread, it is extremely fast on asphalt and long straights. The high and massive side lugs offer plenty of grip and safety in loose gravel bends.SpeedGRIP CompoundPirelli's rubber compound specially developed for cross and gravel represents a synthesis of road, off-road and motorsport technology. It reinforces mechanical strength and chemical grip without reducing smoothness. For a fast rolling rubber, the SpeedGRIP compound offers outstanding mileage and controllability on dry and wet surfaces. This compound has it all and gives you advantages in all conditions.TechWall Gravel carcassWhile defects in road bike tires mainly occur on the tread, the sidewalls of gravel tires are at least as vulnerable. That's why the 60 TPI Techwall Gravel carcass has reinforced sidewalls and continuous Nalon puncture protection from bead to bead.Tubeless ReadyAramid-reinforced tire beads ensure an optimum fit of the tire. Especially on wide rims and at low air pressures, the reinforcement efficiently prevents air from escaping.
