Pirelli P Zero™Race Italy black 700x28c

The focus of the P ZERO Race is entirely on maximum performance. The tread design is identical to that of the tubeless-ready version of the same name, as is the rubber compound used. The P ZERO Race is made from the new SmartEVO compound. With the know-how from over 110 years of tradition in motorsport, Pirelli has put together a mixture of three functional polymers with "intelligent" properties that form the basis of the outstanding performance of SmartEVO. Each of the three polymers has specific performance characteristics, and in combination they guarantee the optimum balance of grip and rolling resistance. Completely new to this model, however, is the 120 TPI nylon carcass, designed for use with inner tubes and in compliance with the new ETRTO standards for 19C rims (inner rim width). Performance clincher tire that is at home on the road and fits any modern rim. Not tubeless compatible, not hookless compatible.

Based on the experience gained from World Tour racing and the constant desire for top performance, Pirelli engineers have developed the most powerful all-round road racing tire ever designed by the iconic brand. The P ZERO Race was developed to pack all the benefits of Tubetype technology into a race-ready all-rounder that outperforms all previously developed folding cycling tires, including tubulars. After three years of development work with the fastest racers on the World Tour, including 2019 UCI champions, Pirelli designed this new folding tire. With the new SmartEVO compound and TechBELT carcass technology, it offers a superior product to professional riders and cycling enthusiasts alike!
