Cinturato Gravel RC is the gravel-racing specific tyre derived from Pirelli’s experience in the biggest competitions around the World and the feedbacks of their PRO athletes. The tread design is inspired by the Scorpion XC RC focussed on two key features: higher average speed on straight and fast lines improved lateral grip when off-road cornering. Features Racing speed puncture resistance. Real weight: 522 g 700x40c. Technologies TechWALL Gravel Using a combination of the know-how developed for reinforced road structures and the experience gained in MTB Pirelli’s engineers have created a Gravel construction that relies on both the mechanical resistance of the compound itself and a layer of high shear resistance that protects the casing from bead to bead. While punctures on the road occur mainly from penetration by sharp objects off-road punctures occur more frequently from stones or debris on the sidewall of the tyre. For this reason the textile material used for the TechWALL construction is particularly resistant to cuts in order to ensure better resistance of the entire structure. The tubeless-ready 120tpi 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 all types of terrain. SpeedGRIP compound Specific formulation for Gravel born from Pirelli’s experience in the world of rallying where the characteristics of smoothness on asphalt and grip on gravel are crucial. This compound uses the same polymer matrix as the MTB SmartGrip Compound but improves its smoothness. Gravel use requires greater speed and versatility on/off-road so Pirelli engineers have oriented the compound’s properties towards better energy efficiency enabling excellent performance on gravel and high grip in both dry and wet conditions. With sliding values on any surface similar to those recorded by purely road tyres.
