Tread

The tread of the Scorpion™ XC RC was developed together with XCO World Cup athletes: low and thick centre lugs for best rolling efficiency, higher side lugs to control lean angle. A tread design without compromise.

Compound

LITE (version)

All models of the The LITE version is designed for maximum rolling efficiency and suppleness: a lighter carcass to emphasise speed and feel.

ProWALL

Our protective sidewall reinforcement technology for enhanced puncture protection and improved handling at low pressure . An additional layer of nylon fabric over the sidewalls of the carcass for added protection and improved cornering stability.
