Pirelli Cinturato Gravel RC Tire
Couldn't load pickup availability
Cinturato™ Gravel RC is the tire specific for gravel racing applications, derived from Pirelli's experience in major gravel competitions and advice from top athletes. A tread pattern inspired by the Scorpion™ XC RC, focused on two main features: rolling efficiency for faster sections and lateral grip for dirt corners without support.
Features
- Racing, speed, protection.
- Actual weight: 522 g (700x40c).
Technologies
Speed GRIP compound
Specific formulation for Gravel, born from Pirelli's experience in the rally world where rolling efficiency on asphalt and grip on dirt are crucial. This compound uses the same polymer matrix as the MTB SmartGrip Compound, but improves rolling efficiency. Gravel use requires greater speed and versatility on/off-road, so Pirelli's technicians have oriented the compound's properties towards better energy efficiency, allowing excellent performance on dirt terrains and high grip both on dry and wet surfaces. With rolling resistance values on any surface similar to those recorded by purely road tires.
Tech WALL Gravel
With a combination of the know-how developed for reinforced road structures and the experience gained in MTB, Pirelli's technicians have created a Gravel construction that relies both on the mechanical strength of the compound itself and on a high cut-resistance layer that protects the casing from bead to bead. While punctures on the road mainly occur due to penetration by sharp objects, off-road they more often happen because of stones or debris on the tire sidewall. For this reason, the textile material used for the TechWALL construction is particularly cut-resistant, to ensure better durability of the entire structure. The 60tpi tubeless-ready casing guarantees an optimal riding feel without the risk of forced stops thanks to the use of specific anti-cut fabrics. A unique mix of technologies to tackle every type of terrain.
