The latest addition to the Scorpion XC family, the new RH is engineered for the demands of modern cross-country racing, where maximum speed is crucial—but never at the expense of control. RH stands for “Racing Hardpack”, and this tire is purpose-built for compact terrain and XCC race formats. The tightly packed, low-profile center tread delivers exceptional rolling efficiency, gliding effortlessly across firm surfaces while still absorbing trail feedback—something a pure semi-slick simply can’t match. What truly sets the RH apart is its use of the fine tuned Race XC compound, which combines ultra-fast rolling performance with strong chemical grip—especially vital on hardpack and in mixed race conditions. This allows for maximum speed with confidence, even when pushing the limits. Aggressive side knobs ensure surefooted cornering at high speeds, letting you hold your line and keep the watts you’ve earned on the straightaways.

Features
Race Compound - Developed by Pirelli engineers and crafted in Italy, the Race Compound is the ultimate blend of performance and reliability. Proven through countless victories and podiums — from the World Cup to the Cape Epic — it’s the fastest compound in the Pirelli MTB lineup. Designed for maximum chemical grip even on wet terrain, it ensures confident, all-conditions riding. At the same time, it delivers top-tier tear resistance for outstanding mechanical traction and enhanced puncture protection. Thanks to its single-compound formulation, performance remains consistent throughout the tyre’s entire lifespan, even as the tread wears.
ProWall - The ProWALL casing features a sidewall protection that enhances the puncture resistance and the handling at low inflation pressure. The sidewall is reinforced with an extra layer of nylon that increases the resistance against penetration and cuts while stabilizing the tyre at low inflation pressure for a confident ride over any kind of terrain. The ProWALL is a solid option for XC racing. 120tpi
