TREAD
The tread of the Scorpion XC RC was developed together with XCO World Cup athletes: low and thick centre lugs for best rolling efficiency, higher side lugs for lean angle control. A tread design without compromise.

COMPOUND
SmartGRIP Compound is an advanced compound developed based on motorsport experience. The single compound solution provides consistently high grip performance on both wet and dry surfaces, even when the lugs start to wear down.

LITE
All models in the LITE version are designed for maximum rolling efficiency and suppleness: a lighter carcass to emphasise speed and feel.
