Pirelli introduces the new generation P ZERO Race TLR by further improving one of its best-selling models on the market. Through a new design solution, they have worked on one of the most important parameters when it comes to cycling tyres: rolling resistance. The new SPEEDCore construction is a thin air-tight layer of rubber compound with aramid particles that covers the inner part of the tire. The greater elasticity of the rubber compound makes the tire faster and more flexible, while the presence of aramid allows for better puncture resistance. The carcass is complemented by 120tpi nylon fabric and an aramid puncture protection strip, while Pirelli maintains the latest SmartEVO rubber compound in the tread to deliver the highest performance. All the special features of the new P ZERO Race TLR are expertly crafted in Italy to deliver unparalleled quality and superior performance.

TECHNOLOGY
SPEEDCore
High-tech 120 tpi tubeless-ready (TLR) shell construction with aramid compound inner layer and aramid protective strip. Pirelli's most powerful tubeless-ready road tire construction with a unique design that adds a rubber layer with aramid to the carcass. Compared to bead-to-bead aramid construction, this new structure adds strength and support to the tire carcass but retains a flexible feel for minimal rolling resistance and maximum grip. SPEEDCore is a new patented technology that is exclusive to the use of the new P ZERO Race TLR tire. SPEEDCore is the choice of World Tour factory teams.
