Pirelli launches the P ZERO Race 150°, a special edition of its racing tire dedicated to the company’s 150th anniversary, marking the start of its tire production with a bicycle tire. The commemorative tire made its debut on the Trek-Segafredo World Tour team’s bicycles during the recently concluded Giro d’Italia.
The P ZERO Race 150° is a versatile tire suitable for both long training sessions and competition. It offers lightness, great smoothness, and grip, thanks in part to the special SmartEVO compound. Formulated with a ternary blend of polymers featuring "smart" performance characteristics, the compound delivers excellent grip in both dry and wet conditions and very low rolling resistance. The tire’s 120 TPI nylon casing is protected by TechBELT Road technology, which improves puncture resistance without increasing the tire’s weight.
The P ZERO Race 150 is made in Italy: it is produced at Pirelli’s renovated plant in Bollate, near Milan. It offers all the highly regarded features of the original P ZERO Race tire, a bestseller from the Milan-based company, adorned with an exclusive gold livery, the "P Lunga 150°" logo, and special packaging, and is available in sizes 26-622 and 28-622.
The Pirelli 150 Anniversary kit consists of:
- 2x Pirelli P ZERO Road tires
- 2x Pirelli SmarTUBE 700x23-32 Presta Valve inner tubes
- Pirelli cap
- Keychain
