Pirelli CINTURATO VELO TLR Tire : 700 x 35 mm

Applying their vast knowledge of motorsports, both on 4 and 2 wheels, on and off road, Pirelli introduces their first Tubeless-Ready clincher in the Cinturato Velo TLR tyre. By combining SmartNET™ Silica with the puncture resistance of Armour Tech™ technology, Pirelli has created a new clincher tyre with a unique DNA, perfect for long-distances and various terrains.

Made from innovative SmartNET™ Silica and Pirelli's ICS and FGD technologies, Cinturato provides all-round cycling excellence. Thanks to its nano-rod conformation and the resulting network generation, coupled with the natural chemical water affinity of the Silica itself, it solves the traditional trade-off of rubber compounds, ranking high on opposite features such as rolling and wet grip, mileage and puncture protection.

The Cinturato Velo uses an aramid fiber belt, with high cut and abrasion resistance, located underneath the tread in order to protect the casing from sharp objects. Its light weight and flexibility also ensure rolling efficiency and overall performance of the tyre. Underneath, a high density nylon layer belt extends from one bead to the other, all the way around the casing, to defend against sharp objects and provide support for low pressure riding.

The Cinturato Velo is equipped with a bead profile that matches with tubeless-ready rim hooks, plus a specific bead material and specification that allows for easy mounting with the inner tube while keeping proper tubeless bead engagement if used with a sealant in a fully tubeless ready configuration.

Lastly, the tyre is shaped using Pirelli Functional Design Groove and Ideal Contour Shaping technologies: the casing textile is designed to match contour for optimal footprint, while a different crown and sidewall radius guarantee controlled and specific tire deformation at different speeds and lean angles. On top of this, the lightning bolt groove design, derived from Pirelli's experience in motorbike racing tire design, adds optimal water drainage at different angles and force loads, while ensuring low noise output and quickwarm uptimes, for immediate maximum grip levels, period.
