Pirelli P ZERO Race TLR SL-R 700x30C Team Edition: a tubeless-ready tire designed for the road

A high-performance tubeless-ready road tire in a Team edition

The Pirelli P ZERO Race TLR SL-R 700x30C Team Edition performance road tire incorporates the most advanced construction in the P ZERO Race range in a 30mm width. It uses the tubeless-ready LiteCORE casing, SmartEVO² compound, and PAAS aerodynamic technology designed to reduce tire-wheel drag.

Its profile, developed using CFD simulation, aims to create a seamless transition with modern rims, minimize airflow separation, and improve the sail effect in crosswind conditions. The 30mm width is well-suited to current road bike setups focused on efficiency and performance.

The Team Edition features the same technical specifications as the Black version in 30-622: a 120 TPI casing, a claimed weight of 295g, and SmartEVO² compound. The provided documentation makes no mention of any difference in structure or performance between these two versions.

Team Edition

Specific reference

This Team Edition version uses product code 4802300.

Specifications common to the Black version

The weight, casing, rubber, dimensions and technologies are identical to those of the Black version in 700x30C.

Visual presentation not detailed

The available information does not precisely describe the aesthetic elements specific to the Team Edition.

PAAS Technology

Aerodynamic optimization

The PAAS system is designed to improve the aerodynamic efficiency of the tire-wheel assembly.

CFD Development

The various aerodynamic characteristics are developed by CFD simulation.

Maintaining airflow

The profile aims to keep the air attached around the tire and rim for longer.

Announced Win

Pirelli announces up to 5 to 10 watts of savings in sustained wind conditions compared to the reference tires tested.

LiteCORE Carcass

Tubeless ready construction

LiteCORE is a tubeless ready casing geared towards lightness, performance and flexibility.

120 TPI

The carcass density is 120 TPI.

Performance and feel

This design aims to reduce rolling resistance while maintaining a flexible feel.

SmartEVO² Eraser

Grip on dry and wet roads

The SmartEVO² compound is designed to maintain grip and control in various road conditions.

Advanced polymers

The formula uses a new generation of functionalized polymers derived from Pirelli's motorsport expertise.
