Description
The New Standard For Race Day
The Pirelli PZero Race Road Tire sets the standard as one of the lightest all-around tube-type tires for high-intensity training sessions and races.
The TechBELT Road carcass improves reliability against punctures without affecting the weight of the tire, while the special SmartEVO Compound enhances grip both on wet and dry asphalt compared to Pirelli's previous cycling compounds.
The new tube-type TechBELT Road carcass was developed to provide puncture protection in a wide variety of conditions. It consists of a light, yet flexible casing structure with an added layer of high-cut resistant fabric.
The SmartEVO Compound is a new formulation that enhances the grip of the tire, especially in cornering.
The tread pattern of PZero Race is an evolution of the design of PZero Velo — several seasons of research and development on the roads of the World Tour led to a new design that enhances performance in every weather condition.
As always, Pirelli draws upon their decades of experience crafting motorsport rubber to build their cycling tires. The results are exceptional.

Reviews
Been riding and racing for more than 30 years. Just switched from Schwalbe Pro One's to these P Zero clincher's 28mm. So far, the P Zero is an exceptional tire compared to everything else that I've used. Very smooth, subtle road feel with exceptional cornering grip. Seem as fast or faster than the Schwalbe. Only con is not really the tires fault, but they are a real bear to mount on Campagnolo Bora Ultra WTO 45 wheels. Not looking forward to changing a tube if I flat out on the road!
I initially purchased size 28c, but later opted for an exchange to size 30c based on my research indicating that it would provide a more comfortable ride. The new tires have exceeded my expectations - the impact is reduced and the rolling resistance is significantly improved. I am extremely satisfied with this purchase and would like to express my gratitude to your team for assisting me with the exchange process and providing valuable information about these tires.
I have lots of bikes that span Rim/Mechanical to Disc/Electronic abd I've tried all the high performance tires on my market, but always come back to the PZero. They're smooth, FAST, confident inspiring, stick like glue, they're actually very robust (especially when set-up tubeless) and mount with ease and only need a floor pump.
I have them from 26 to 32 and I'm each application they shine. The biggest compliment I can give any product is when you never think about it. That's the PZero... Set, Forget, Drop the hammer and just enjoy the ride!
I'm 6' 2" and 185 lbs. Usually run Specialized s-works turbo 26c or Vittoria Corsa 25c on my Campagnolo Bora Ultra clincher wheels. Love the Vittoria's, but wanted something more flat resistant. The s-works turbo worked well, but wanted a tan sidewall for a more vintage look. The Pirelli's are not as comfortable or as fast as the Vittoria's. The Perelli's feel faster than the s-works turbo and similar for comfort, and also come in tan sidewall. I feel the Perelli's are slightly better than the s-works turbo, but not quite as good as the Vittoria's
This is an early review, as I've only been on a few rides with this tire on the rear. So far, it is performing up to snuff. For comparison, I like the Vittoria Corsa Control and the Conti GP5000, but am not a fan of Schwalbe Pro One or Specialized Roubaix tires. Every rider has their sweet spot, combining durability, puncture resistance, and long lasting grippiness, and those are the metrics I base my assessments on. Since the Pirelli P-zero is still new to me, no strong opinion yet. It is true to size, and was reasonably easy to mount. Tread seems to be on the thin side, especially when compared to the Conti or Vittoria. Will update when I have a more definitive take.
I like this tire because I can mount it on tubeless rims not like continental 5000s. Plus they are dependable tires. Wear a little more than the continentals. Will continue to use them on both my triathlon and road bike. Also I own a ICE VTX trike and use the 28s on the back rim.
Fantastic tire, roll very well and are tough. One flat on two sets in three years. Great control. Ride up to 200 miles a week. Have one set on my Vitus 979 and the other is on a Schwinn Paramount. One of the best tires I have ridden.
Comparable with the Conti 5000. It is a little bit heavier but I started using because I was getting so many flats on The Conti 5,000 tires.
I use a Conti on my front tire. These on my back tire. I would say �try it�.
I'm using the 28C I'm really liking these tires I'm a little heavier guy and I use them with 90 psi in the front and 95 psi in the rear I have comfort and a good grip. I train Crit with them!!! I liked it a lot!!
Had such a pain mounting those other tires thought I'd give these a go. After one ride a stone wedged under the tread but, didn't go thru to the tube. I was sold on them and bought more. Very happy with the ride using 28's
First ride I get a flat. I also felt slower on these tires, for whatever reason.. I'm coming from Schwalbe Pro One's and after today's 70 mile ride on the Pirelli's, my initial impression is not good. I'll continue riding them, maybe my opinion will change. Looking to get another pair of Schwalbe's in the future, I'll likely never differ again.
This tire is easy to mount and fast. I would expect supply of 30 mm will get scarce as it is discovered.
30 mm is plush on rough pavement yet responsive. I only need to carry 1 spoon to change a tube on
HED wheels with this tire. I will buy this tire set again.
Fast rolling and lots of grip wet or dry. This is my new go-to road tire. Also, very easy to mount and dismount without tools for the unfortunate flat tire (damn thorns). These seem to do a lot better with broken glass and other debris. Will purchase again!
