Description Pirelli Diablo Rain SCR2
The Pirelli Diablo Rain SCR2 motorcycle tire occupies a special place in the model range of the Italian tire manufacturer. Indeed, this model is the official tire of the world superbike series, which confirms its exceptional qualities. All of them, without exception, are the result of the application of the latest technologies and materials.
High stability in any conditions
One of such technological solutions is the Pirelli Diablo Rain SCR2 profile with variable curvature, thanks to which the contact patch size remains virtually unchanged at almost any motorcycle lean angle. In motion, this design feature significantly simplifies the control process due to the fact that any control action by the driver causes a quick and accurate reaction.
Excellent grip on wet roads
Another distinctive feature of this model is the rubber compound. Its physical properties provide up to 70% of the tire's grip properties. Understanding this, the Italian tire makers very competently approached its creation, including the latest silica-containing materials, also known as silica, in its composition. In combination with a multi-radius profile, this rubber compound provides maximum tight contact of the tire with the road surface, ensuring excellent grip even in rainy conditions. Another pleasant feature of the silica-containing rubber compound is its high resistance to abrasive wear, which significantly extends the life of the tread.
Constant tire contact with the surface
To a large extent, the stability of the grip properties is ensured due to the reinforced carcass, designed with the possibility of tire operation in racing conditions. It is for this reason that a steel cord appeared in its design, the threads of which are located parallel to the direction of movement. Thanks to this, the tire retains its original shape even with significant dynamic deformation, which, in turn, significantly simplifies the control process and also allows for more efficient use of the sport bike engine's power.
Main features of the Pirelli Diablo Rain SCR2 motorcycle tire
- the tire was specifically developed for use in racing conditions;
- the multi-radius profile ensures the constancy of the contact patch size, regardless of the driving conditions;
- the high silica content in the rubber compound significantly improves grip on wet roads and wear resistance;
- the carcass with "zero" arrangement of steel cord threads allows the tire to "keep its shape" even at significant lateral accelerations;
- the V-shaped symmetrical tread pattern with a large number of drainage grooves provides high resistance to aquaplaning.
