Designed for hardpack XC and Marathon courses: the best trade-off between speed and grip. Low profile and compact tread pattern for riding quickly and confidently over hardpack terrain. The Scorpion™ XC H is the best choice for XC and Marathon courses where speed is the key factor. The tread pattern of the Scorpion™ XC H is made up of low densely packed knobs with reduced height to increase speed and limit deforming when cornering on hardpack terrain. SmartGRIP Compound is an advanced compound developed using motorsport experience. The single compound provides constant high grip performance both in wet and dry conditions even when the tread starts to wear. ProWall sidewall reinforcement technology increases puncture protection and improves handling at low pressures. An additional layer of Nylon fabric is applied over the casing sidewalls for extra protection and improved cornering stability. Casing: 120 tpi

The tread of this Pirelli Scorpion Soft Terrain model features deep, widely-spaced knobs that sink into the ground surface and prevents heavy build-up for an elevated, grippy performance even in difficult conditions. Plus, the SmartGRIP compound on this race-ready cross country (XC) tyre ensures higher grip and handling in wet and dry conditions, so nothing gets in the way of your riding experience. Technologies: SmartGRIP Compound: This compound uses cutting-edge advances in chemical technology to achieve a higher level of mechanical resistance and chemical grip. This gives the tyre a huge boost to the tyre's grip and handling in the wet and dry with just one layer of compound. ProWall: The ProWall is sidewall protection that enhances the puncture resistance and the tyre’s handling at lower air pressures. The sidewall is reinforced with an extra layer of nylon that increases the resistance against penetration and cuts while stabilising the tyre at low pressures for a confident ride over all terrain types. The ProWall is a solid option for XC racing and trail riding. It’s also the preferred choice of multiple XC World Cup riders. Its carcass has a 120 TPI fabric reinforcement for a reliable and fast setup that’s capable of handling modern cross country Parcours, marathon races, down country use and non-technical trails.
