Pirelli Cinturato Gravel Mixed Terrain 45-622

Pirelli's off-road expertise offers a range of tires that will help you have more fun on dry or wet surfaces. With a broad and successful off-road pedigree ranging from world rally championship titles to motocross titles, Pirelli knows a thing or two when it comes to tackling challenging off-road terrain without compromising on rolling efficiency and mileage. With the Cinturato gravel track, you can forget about the weather and punctures and just focus on riding longer, more comfortably and exploring new territories of the riding experience.

Highlights

• Reliable performance in all weathers on a variety of surfaces
• Medium lug length and medium tread spacing ensure fast driving on a wide variety of surfaces, in both dry and wet weather conditions
• SPEEDGRIP Compound: uncompromising grip, even in wet conditions, ensures efficient and fast rolling behavior with high tear resistance and high grip even in wet conditions
• Puncture protection: Nylon bead-to-bead (high-strength nylon fabric for additional cut and puncture protection
• Knob design and dimensions have been developed specifically for cyclocross - suitable for 700 (x33c) rims
• TRL Tubless Ready Aramid folding bead, optimized for wide rims and low pressure riding

SpeedGrip Compound

The properties of the new Pirelli compound formulation SpeedGRIP are tailored to every weather condition, regardless of whether the terrain is dry or wet. In the development of the Scorpion ™ MTB rubber formulation- SmartGRIP - the new SpeedGRIP compound retains the same polymer matrix and improves rolling efficiency. The greater need for speed or mileage for the same effort on gravel, with a combination of asphalt, gravel and aggressive terrain, and a mix of uses - from racing to packing to adventuring - prompted Pirelli's engineers to optimize this new rubber for better energy management. The SpeedGRIP compound retains the same tear resistance as its MTB counterpart (SmartGRIP) and has a high chemical grip (also known as wet grip). More efficient energy management reduces rolling resistance to a level very close to that of pure road racing tires.

TechWall Gravel

Pirelli's engineers have combined the technologies of road-specific reinforced casings with those of MTB-specific casings to develop the most advanced gravel casing, whose performance has been improved by the use of special fabric reinforcements and thicker rubber layers in certain areas of the tyre. On the road, most punctures are caused by the penetration of sharp objects, while off-road, most punctures are caused by cuts in the sidewall. For this reason, the TechWALL Gravel is equipped with a cut-resistant 120tpi fabric around the entire circumference of the tyre that still provides a smooth ride.
