Product Information

Full details

The Pirelli P ZERO(TM) Race TLR - Gold is designed for cyclists focused on achieving peak performance, speed, and grip during spring, summer, and autumn riding conditions. Its key benefit lies in the innovative SpeedCORE(TM) casing and SmartEVO(TM) compound, which deliver reduced rolling resistance for faster speeds and enhanced puncture resistance. A potential caveat for some users is the hookless rim compatibility, which is limited to sizes 28-622 and above, with a strict maximum pressure of 5 bar (73 psi).

FAQs

What is the main advantage of the SpeedCORE(TM) casing?

The SpeedCORE(TM) casing uses an inner layer of aramid compound and an aramid breaker. This construction allows for greater flexibility of the rubber compound, resulting in reduced rolling resistance for faster speeds and improved puncture resistance.

Is the P ZERO(TM) Race TLR - Gold compatible with all rims?

Sizes 28-622 and above are compatible with hookless rims, but require adherence to a maximum pressure of 5 bar (73 psi). Sizes 26-622 and below are not compatible with hookless rims.

What type of riding is this tire best suited for?

This tire is designed for performance-oriented riding, focusing on speed and grip. It is ideal for racing, fast group rides, and performance training during spring, summer, and autumn conditions.

How does the SmartEVO(TM) compound benefit performance?

The SmartEVO(TM) compound is Pirelli's latest blend of smart polymers, engineered to provide the highest level of grip while maintaining low rolling resistance, allowing for maximum speed and control.

Does this tire require an inner tube?

No, this is a Tubeless Ready (TLR) tire. It is designed to be used without an inner tube, along with appropriate tubeless sealant and rim tape.

What is the weight of the tire?

The weight varies by size: 26-622 is 290g, 28-622 is 315g, 30-622 is 335g, 32-622 is 369g, 35-622 is 400g, and 40-622 is 445g.

Where is the P ZERO(TM) Race TLR - Gold manufactured?

This tire is skilfully crafted in Italy, ensuring unique quality and superior performance.

Troubleshooting

Tire will not seat on the rim.

Ensure the rim bed is clean and free of debris. Try deflating the tire completely and using a higher volume floor pump or air compressor to seat the beads. Check that the tire bead is sitting evenly in the rim channel all the way around.

Loss of air pressure / sealant not sealing.

Ensure sufficient tubeless sealant has been added. Rotate the wheel to distribute the sealant. Check that the valve core is tightened properly. Inspect the tire and rim for any obvious punctures or damage that the sealant cannot seal.

Tire feels sluggish or slow.

Verify that the tire pressure is within the recommended range. Low pressure can increase rolling resistance. Ensure the tire is not damaged and the beads are properly seated.

Hookless rim pressure exceeded.

If using a hookless rim, immediately reduce tire pressure below the 5 bar (73 psi) limit. Failure to do so can cause catastrophic rim or tire failure.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent grip and control due to SmartEVO(TM) compound.
  • Reduced rolling resistance for higher speeds.
  • Enhanced puncture resistance from SpeedCORE(TM) and aramid breaker.
  • Supple ride feel for improved comfort.
  • High-quality construction with Italian manufacturing.

Cons

  • Hookless rim compatibility is restricted to larger sizes (28-622 and above).
  • Maximum pressure limit of 5 bar (73 psi) for hookless rims.
  • May be less suited for extremely wet or cold conditions compared to all-weather tires.
  • Higher price point reflecting premium performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Tire Installation: Ensure the rim bed is clean. Mount one bead of the tire onto the rim, then work the second bead on, starting opposite the valve. Use tire levers carefully if needed, ensuring not to pinch the tire carcass.
  2. Tubeless Setup: Install a compatible tubeless rim strip and valve. Add sealant according to the sealant manufacturer's recommendations. Mount the tire, ensuring both beads seat properly into the rim's channel. Inflate rapidly to seat the beads.

Compatibility:

  • Rim Type: This tire is Tubeless Ready (TLR). Sizes 28-622 and above are compatible with hookless rims, provided the maximum inflation pressure does not exceed 5 bar (73 psi). Sizes 26-622 and smaller are not compatible with hookless rims.
  • Rim Width: Consult your rim manufacturer's specifications for recommended tire widths, especially for hookless systems.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Regularly clean the tire with mild soap and water to remove dirt and debris that can accelerate wear. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents.
  • Pressure: Maintain recommended tire pressure for optimal performance and to prevent damage. Check pressure before every ride.
  • Inspection: Periodically inspect the tire for cuts, embedded objects, or excessive wear. Replace the tire if significant damage or wear is observed.
