The Pirelli SCORPION XC MID HARD R 140/80R18 70M is an off-road motorcycle tyre designed for mid-weight cross-country use, intended for riders who push through varied terrain and need predictable handling. It targets enduro and cross riders seeking a compromise between traction on loose soil and stability on firmer trails. The MID HARD compound promotes durability while maintaining sufficient bite for technical sections. Purpose-built tread geometry and stiff block arrangement optimise grip on varied surfaces.

Large shoulder blocks and open channels maintain a clear contact patch and assist water evacuation when conditions are wet or muddy. The carcass is tuned to provide controlled steering response and to withstand impacts from rocks and roots. Even wear is encouraged by balanced footprint pressure, which supports competitive mileage for off-road use. Reinforced sidewall elements protect against pinch flats and enhance load capacity under aggressive riding. The profile also supports braking distance control on mixed surfaces.

For riders this tyre delivers dependable cornering stability and confidence on trails while preserving riding comfort during longer stages. Its construction reduces unexpected failures and provides consistent traction across varied off-road environments.
