The fact is that this model is designed for training young talents in motocross disciplines. This tire exists in two versions - J and X. MX Extra J is designed for training children on motorcycles equipped with engines from 50 to 100 cubic centimeters, and the X modification is for training teenagers, as well as for participating in beginner-level motocross competitions. Together, both versions represent an optimal set for professional training.
Front tire
Due to the specific operating features, the front tire Pirelli Scorpion MX Extra differs slightly from the rear one. The differences concern not only the sizes but also the design of the tread pattern. The front tire has all elements arranged in a V-shape, which provides it with a number of important advantages. First of all, it is the accuracy and responsiveness of control, which greatly facilitates the maneuvering process. In addition, the V-shaped tread pattern design is distinguished by high braking efficiency and directional stability when cornering.
Rear tire
In turn, the rear tire is significantly different in its wider tread and larger-sized blocks. They form a multitude of transverse ribs that provide a contact patch with very long edges of adhesion. As a result, the tire demonstrates excellent traction properties in the longitudinal direction.
Rubber compound
The composition of the rubber compound was selected to provide a balance between the main working characteristics. The use of the latest materials and technologies for preparing the rubber compound made it possible to achieve excellent reliability and performance on any earth or sand surface.
