{"product_id":"pirelli-scorpion-xc-rc","title":"Pirelli Scorpion XC RC","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Pirelli Scorpion XC RC is born in World Cup racing and built for the future of cross-country performance. The latest version evolves from its race-proven predecessor with increased volume, a squarer profile, the advanced Race XC compound, and a fully redesigned lightweight casing. Greater volume improves comfort and stability on technical terrain while keeping the tire responsive and fast. The squarer profile delivers solid cornering support and precise handling when lines get tight. The new Race XC compound blends chemical grip with low rolling resistance to push your speed to the limit, while the innovative LITE casing absorbs impacts and offers race-ready protection without adding unnecessary weight. Tested at the highest levels of XC competition and developed with Italian engineering, the Scorpion XC RC is ready to take you beyond your limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/tyre24.pirelli.com\/dynamic_engine\/velo\/assets\/images\/loghi\/RaceCompound.png\" alt=\"Race Compound\" style=\"height: 40px; margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDeveloped by Pirelli technicians and produced in Motorsport laboratories, the Race Compound represents the perfect balance between rolling efficiency and control. Tested through countless trials, both in the lab and on the field, and immediately brought to racing—from the World Cup to the Cape Epic—it is the most high-performing compound in Pirelli’s MTB range. Designed to offer maximum control and speed across a wide variety of terrains, it ensures a safe and precise ride in every condition. At the same time, it provides excellent tear resistance, enhancing protection against punctures. Used in a single layer and throughout the full thickness of the tread, without inserts of lower-quality compounds, it ensures performance that remains consistent over time, even as the tire wears\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/tyre24.pirelli.com\/dynamic_engine\/velo\/assets\/images\/loghi\/LITE_MTB.png\" alt=\"LITE MTB\" style=\"height: 40px; margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLITE MTB is a lightweight and supple casing which maximises speed, handling and riding feeling.

The added volume makes it noticeably more confident on technical terrain without slowing the tire down, and the squarer profile gives you real cornering grip that the older, rounder XC tires would give up when you pushed past a certain lean angle. The Race Compound keeps rolling resistance impressively low for a tire that also grips well in wet conditions. The LITE casing is genuinely light and the 655g weight is competitive with dedicated XC race tires. If you are racing XC or just want the fastest, lightest tire in the Scorpion range, the XC RC in Team Edition is the one to get.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pirelli","offers":[{"title":"29x2.4 | Race Compound | LITE MTB | Team Edition","offer_id":51181898629363,"sku":"4309200","price":99.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/3207\/5934\/files\/Pirelli-ScorpionXCRC.jpg?v=1789062521","url":"https:\/\/bikecomponents.ca\/products\/pirelli-scorpion-xc-rc","provider":"Bikecomponents.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
