Scorpion Race 29in XC M Tubeless Tire

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve used the Scorpion Race XC M as a front and rear combo, and it’s killer. The grip in corners feels locked-in, especially in damp terrain, and the ProWALL casing really lets me drop the pressure without worrying about rim strikes or sidewall cuts."

Built from Pirelli’s decades of motorsport expertise and refined through top-tier feedback, the Scorpion Race XC M is a race-focused tire designed to meet the evolving demands of cross-country competition. Designed for riders who demand both speed and control, this tire pairs an efficient tread profile with a high-grip compound and reinforced casing, making it ideal for everything from fast laps to technical climbs and descents.

The XC M’s compact central tread accelerates quickly and maintains momentum on smoother terrain, while the medium-height knobs provide bite and braking traction on mixed surfaces. The single-compound Race rubber is tuned for maximum grip and consistent performance throughout the tire's life, giving racers confidence in any condition. Pirelli’s ProWALL casing reinforces the sidewalls with a durable nylon layer, offering improved puncture resistance and stability at lower pressures without adding excess weight. This 120 TPI tubeless-ready casing offers the supple ride feel and responsiveness needed for competitive efforts, while boosting flat protection when the trail gets rugged.
