Ideal for road riders seeking a comfortable, reliable 26 mm tyre for daily riding, training, fast commuting and long-distance road use.
The Pirelli P ZERO Road 26-622 is a tube-type clincher road tyre for riders who want one dependable option for everyday riding and performance-focused training. At 235 g, it keeps weight sensible without chasing an ultra-thin race construction, while the 120 TPI TechBELT casing is designed to deliver a comfortable, responsive ride.
Under the tread, a puncture-resistant nylon reinforcement layer adds useful protection against common road debris. The EVO Compound is tuned to balance rolling resistance, wet grip and durability, so you can ride confidently across changing conditions without choosing a specialist tyre for every type of outing.
Independent testing measured this size at 222 g and 26 mm wide, with 17.0 W rolling resistance at 80 psi, a 68-point wet-grip result and a 42-point tread puncture score. Those figures support its role as a balanced training and road-riding tyre: quick enough to feel lively, grippy in damp conditions and built with more everyday resilience than a pure race-focused option. As a tube-type clincher, it is intended for use with a compatible inner tube and 622 mm road wheel.
