The Pirelli P Zero Race TLR RS is the company's fastest road race tire to date, including a new compound, and lower rolling resistance.
The fast tires keep coming, this time from the Italian powerhouse Pirelli. Just in time for the summer race schedule , Pirelli adds another update to the performance focused P Zero Race tire line. Pirelli sat the new P Zero Race TLR RS is its fastest road race tire. Claiming a 13% increase in rolling efficiency and a 8% reduction in weight.
Racing our “bullet” shaped crit course, I was able to push the corning a bit more. I found the tire comfortable with a confident performance. The tire’s sidewall felt slightly more corner-friendly when leaning the bike over, slightly more supple. I attribute this to the thinned-out casing and a bit to the compound. Without all the technical data from Pirelli, it is impossible to prove that the tires are indeed faster.
We’ll be back with an entire season of racing reviews, but as of now, these are my new road race tires. I’ve yet to have a flat , and the tire wear seems on par with most race-focused tires we test.Interesting the recommended pressures seem high but prolly for best rolling resistance. At 200lbs kitted I’m rocking 28s at about 75-80psi and 30s at 65-70 psi and love how they feel. Some days I even let more out during ride down to 50 55 on my 28s and really helps with the path bumps etc.
