FAQ

What terrain is the Scorpion XC S designed for?

The XC S is optimized for soft, loose, and muddy terrain where a tall, widely spaced tread can bite into the surface. It is not the fastest option on hardpack but excels on courses with variable or challenging conditions.

Is the Scorpion XC S tubeless compatible?

Yes. The TLR tubeless-ready construction is designed for straightforward mounting and reliable bead stability, making it fully compatible with tubeless-ready rims.

How does the XC S compare to the XC M and XC H?

The XC S (Soft) has the tallest, most aggressive tread for maximum grip in loose conditions. The XC M (Medium) balances speed and traction across varied terrain, while the XC H (Hard) is optimized for hardpack and maximum rolling speed.

Best For

XC and marathon racers who regularly encounter soft, muddy, or loose terrain and need a tire that bites hard without sacrificing tubeless reliability.
