Fast, firm trails still need a tyre that can take a hit. The Pirelli Scorpion Blacksting DHWALL+ combines a tread built for speed on hardpack with the heaviest-duty casing in this Scorpion range. It's the choice for downhill riders who want a quick rear tyre for dry tracks and bike park laps, with substantial support when the corners and impacts get bigger.
Low, closely spaced centre knobs keep the tyre rolling, while reinforced shoulders give it support as you lean into a turn. The DHWALL+ construction adds two 60 TPI plies, sidewall reinforcement and a rubber insert at the bead to help the tyre hold its shape under load.
Pair it with an Emperor up front for a gravity setup biased towards rolling speed. Soft balances grip with wear resistance; Super Soft puts more emphasis on grip and damping. Choose the size and compound together, as the available combinations vary.
