Pirelli Scorpion E-MTB M Tyre 29"

Pirelli Scorpion E-MTB M Tyre 29"

The Pirelli Scorpion E-MTB M is a tyre built specifically for electric mountain bikes, engineered to handle the increased demands that motor-assisted riding places on rubber. Offering versatile all-round performance across trail and enduro terrain, it is equally at home on your regular local trails during the week as it is lining up for a weekend race. Consistent, predictable behaviour across a wide range of conditions makes the Scorpion E-MTB M a standout choice for e-MTB riders across Victoria and Australia, from the flowing trails of Plenty Gorge to the more technical terrain of Dinner Plain and the Victorian high country.

• E-MTB specific HyperWALL carcass provides reinforced sidewall protection and superior pinch-flat resistance via a rubber insert linked firmly to the bead, delivering reliable support at lower inflation pressures under the added weight and torque of an e-MTB
• Big, widely spaced knobs developed with input from former Downhill World Champions provide a solid, stable platform with strong braking grip and traction across trail and enduro terrain in the 29" format
• SmartGRIP Gravity compound is a soft, tear-resistant formulation tuned specifically for demanding enduro riding in all weather conditions, balancing grip, rolling resistance and long-term durability
• Consistent, predictable performance over time makes the Scorpion E-MTB M an ideal all-rounder for e-MTB riders who want a reliable tyre that performs the same on ride one as it does hundreds of kilometres later

Tread Design for Trail and Enduro Versatility

The Scorpion E-MTB M tread pattern was developed in collaboration with former Downhill World Champions, with a clear brief: create a tyre whose behaviour is easy to read and predict across every type of trail riding. The result is a layout of big, widely spaced knobs that delivers a reassuring sense of stability underfoot, with strong braking grip when you need to scrub speed and reliable traction when accelerating out of corners. The 29" wheel format amplifies that stability further, rolling over trail debris with confidence and maintaining momentum across variable terrain. For e-MTB riders who want a tyre that works consistently across mixed trail conditions, the Scorpion E-MTB M is a natural fit.

SmartGRIP Gravity Compound

The SmartGRIP Gravity compound is tuned specifically for demanding enduro-style riding and performs reliably in all weather conditions, an important quality for Australian riders dealing with everything from dry Victorian summer hardpack to wet and muddy winter trails. Despite its soft durometer, SmartGRIP Gravity maintains strong tear resistance to cope with the additional torque and weight loads generated by e-MTB systems. Rolling resistance and wear values remain competitive for a compound in this category, making it a practical choice for riders who want race-level grip without burning through tyres prematurely.

HyperWALL E-MTB Carcass

The HyperWALL carcass is Pirelli's e-MTB specific construction, developed to handle the unique demands that electric mountain bikes place on tyre structure. Added sidewall reinforcement protects against the cuts and impacts common on rocky, technical trail riding, while a rubber insert firmly bonded to the bead area provides superior resistance to pinch flats. This construction also delivers excellent support at lower inflation pressures, allowing e-MTB riders to run more traction-friendly pressures without the risk of casing damage. For heavier e-MTB setups common on Australian trails, the HyperWALL carcass is the foundation that keeps the Scorpion E-MTB M performing reliably ride after ride.
