The Scorpion XC RC ProWALL Team Edition is built for cross-country racing when speed matters but the course still demands grip, braking control and sidewall support. Its 2.4-inch volume and squarer profile give you a more planted feel through corners and technical sections, while the Race Compound keeps acceleration and rolling efficiency high.

The Scorpion XC RC ProWALL Team Edition is a high-performance XC tyre for racing across rocky terrain, dirt tracks and compact to mid-loose surfaces. The close, fast-rolling tread is paired with Pirelli’s Race Compound, balancing low rolling resistance with grip, damping and tear resistance so you can keep carrying speed without giving away control when the trail becomes more technical.
Its ProWALL casing adds reinforced sides and an extra nylon layer for improved resistance to punctures, penetration and cuts, while also helping the tyre stay stable at lower pressures. The squarer profile increases the footprint and supports more confident cornering, braking and climbing traction. Independent riding impressions of the current 2.4-inch version found it quick on climbs and flats, with particularly strong confidence gains through corners and on descents.
At 29x2.4 and 700 g, this is a substantial-volume race tyre rather than an ultra-minimal hardpack special. Pirelli optimises it for wide 30c rims, making it a strong choice for modern XC bikes and demanding marathon or stage-race courses. As with any low-profile XC tread, careful line choice and sensible speed management will help you get the best from it when the surface becomes very loose.
Choose it if you want a fast XC race tyre with extra volume, reinforced sidewalls and dependable cornering support for technical courses.
Race Compound
Balances low rolling resistance, grip, damping and tear resistance for fast acceleration and consistent control across varied surfaces.
ProWALL protection
Reinforced sides and an extra nylon layer improve resistance to punctures, penetration and cuts while supporting lower-pressure riding.
2.4-inch volume
The larger casing creates a broader footprint for more traction, stability and comfort than a narrower XC race tyre.
Squarer profile
Provides stronger shoulder support, quicker steering response and more confidence when cornering or braking on technical terrain.
120 TPI nylon casing
A high-density casing helps deliver the responsive feel expected from a race-focused tyre while retaining useful sidewall support.
Wide-rim optimisation
Designed around wide 30c rims to make the most of the 60-622 casing shape and increased volume.
Dry and wet versatility
The tread and compound are suited to rocky terrain, dirt tracks and compact to mid-loose surfaces in both dry and wet conditions.
FSC-certified natural rubber
Uses responsibly sourced FSC-certified natural rubber as part of the tyre construction.
