FAQ

What front tire pairs with the Scorpion Enduro R?

Pirelli recommends pairing the Scorpion Enduro R with a Scorpion Enduro M up front. The Enduro M provides front-end traction and steering confidence while the Enduro R handles braking forces, drive traction, and rear load on technical enduro terrain.

Why does the Scorpion Enduro R use 60tpi casing instead of the lighter 120tpi?

Enduro riding puts significantly more stress on rear tires than XC racing. The 60tpi casing provides improved durability and reliability under heavy loads, rough terrain impacts, and sustained hard braking that would stress a lighter 120tpi casing over time.

Is the Scorpion Enduro R suitable for trail riding or just racing?

The Scorpion Enduro R is well-suited for both aggressive trail riding and enduro racing. Its medium-profile tread and SmartGRIP compound provide all-condition traction that works equally well for recreational trail riders who push hard as it does for racers.

Best For

Enduro racers and aggressive trail riders on 29ers who need a rear tire built to survive sustained technical descents, demanding climbs, and unpredictable terrain without losing traction or reliability. The Scorpion Enduro R is for riders who ask a lot from their rear tire and want it to hold up.
