Pirelli Scorpion Race XC M LITE Tyre

The Pirelli Scorpion Race XC M LITE tyre is a 29-inch mountain bike tyre, suitable for cross-country and marathon. The listed size is 29 x 2,4 inches (ETRTO 60-622), with a width of 61 mm. The LITE name refers to the Lite casing, which in this version is 120 TPI nylon.

It is tubeless ready (TLR): you can consider fitting it without an inner tube, checking rim compatibility first. The compound is Race XC Compound and the tyre is made in Italy using FSC-certified rubber. The specification lists only one size, so simply compare ETRTO 60-622 with that of your wheel when choosing.

Founded in Milan in 1872 by Giovanni Battista Pirelli, Pirelli remains based in the Lombard city today. For cyclists, it makes tyres for road, gravel, mountain and city bikes, as well as inner tubes. In Bollate, it has renovated a factory dedicated to producing bicycle tyres.
