At Escapa, tires are an important part of our bikes, which is why we’re offering the Pirelli P ZERO Race TLR Classic 700 Tire.
Featuring Smart Evo Compound material technology and SpeedCore tire technology, it gives cyclists total control and allows them to reach higher speeds with maximum safety.
The new generation of P ZERO Race TLR is the highest-performance tire in our lineup, as well as the first Tubeless tire manufactured entirely in Italy at the new factory in Bollate.
The introduction of the new SPEEDCORE technology in the 120 tpi casing features a layer of aramid-reinforced compound that covers the tire’s inner layer, improving both the smoothness and durability of the rubber. The result: a tire that’s less stiff but faster.
The compound, meanwhile, retains the same advanced SmartEVO technology shared with the rest of the high-performance tires in the PZERO
Smart Evo Compound
Still our best chemical Formula for versatile road use, whether in Carrera or for high-intensity cycling and long-distance recreational rides.
Born from Pirelli’s extensive experience in motorsports and collaboration with World Tour factory teams, it features a single-compound formulation based on three different polymers, each of which provides opposing performance characteristics in a perfect blend of grip, speed, and reliability.
The advanced blend of polymers with “smart” properties is the key element of the SmartEVO compound, delivering grip in all weather conditions and very low rolling resistance in a package designed to withstand high mileage and rougher road surfaces.
It is a high-performance chemical formulation developed for modern road cycling, from everyday use to competition, even at the World Tour level.
SpeedCore
SpeedCORE™ is an innovative Tubeless-ready construction developed by Pirelli (Patent Pending) for our high-performance cycling tires, representing our most advanced TLR technology to date.
Derived from Pirelli’s automotive expertise and made possible by our new production plant in Italy, near our headquarters in Milan, the SpeedCORE™ construction consists of a thin, airtight layer of rubber compound infused with aramid particles.
This layer covers the inner part of the tire, and thanks to the presence of aramid in the rubber compound, it provides better mechanical strength, improved air retention, and greater overall flexibility—all of which contribute to the tire’s overall performance.
