The Scorpion XC M balances low rolling resistance with reliable grip for modern XC racing, from marathon distances to XCO laps, on everything from hardpack to intermediate and loose terrain.

Highlights

  • Medium-height, medium-spaced tread
  • Compact central channel for rolling speed
  • LITE MTB casing, 120 TPI
  • Team Edition version

Tread

Medium tread height and spacing with a compact central channel optimise acceleration and rolling speed without giving up control, dry or wet. It suits technical courses where speed and grip have to go together.

Race compound

Race Compound is Pirelli's fastest MTB compound, proven from the World Cup to the Cape Epic. It is used as a single compound through the full tread thickness, so performance stays consistent as the tyre wears, and adds tear resistance for mechanical traction and puncture protection.

Casing

LITE MTB is a lightweight, supple 120 TPI casing without extra sidewall protection, built for cross-country racing and lighter riders who want maximum speed and feel.

Compatibility & fit

Fits 29in (622) wheels; ETRTO 60-622. Check frame and fork clearance for a 2.4in tyre. Tyre fitting and tubeless set-up are available as a separate workshop service; they are not included in the price.

Pirelli cycling tyres and inner tubes are covered against defects in materials and workmanship. This is in addition to your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. Normal wear, cuts and punctures are not manufacturing defects.

For warranty support, return the product to Tune Cycles and we'll manage the claim with Pirelli's Australian distributor.
