Pirelli P Zero Race TLR road bike tyre

The ultra-light P Zero Race SL TLR features the new lightweight TechWALL construction and a tread pattern derived from the World Tour

Drawing on experience from World Tour racing and a constant pursuit of excellence, Pirelli engineers have developed the highest-performance tyre ever created by our company. The P Zero Race TLR and the P Zero Race SL TLR offer all the benefits of tubeless technology, such as tyre grip and handling. After three years of development with the fastest riders on the World Tour, Pirelli has designed these new TLR tyres featuring the new SmartEVO compound to offer our Pro Riders – and you – the best Pirelli tyres ever produced!

Pirelli SmartEVO rubber compound:

The SmartEVO rubber compound is a high-performance formula developed for modern road cycling, from daily training to World Tour races. The compound is based on three different polymers, each of which, in perfect proportion, delivers top performance in different areas. The unique composition of the polymers, with their intelligent properties, are the core elements of the SmartEVO compound, ensuring performance in all weather conditions and lower rolling resistance.

Pirelli TechWALL+ casing:

The new TechWALL+ casing is constructed from multiple 120 TPI nylon fabric reinforcements for outstanding puncture protection within a lightweight tyre structure. The reinforcements are distributed beneath the tread and on the sidewalls across the entire circumference of the tyre, preventing penetration by sharp objects and ensuring even greater reliability and puncture protection. An extra aramid fabric reinforcement at the tyre bead stabilises the tyre on wide rims and when riding with low air pressure. This makes the casing a high-performance all-rounder with the best weight-to-puncture-protection ratio in its class.
