PIRELLI Angel™ XT Urban, 37 - 622, HyperBELT 5mm, 60 tpi, Pro (urban)

With its knobbly thread pattern, inherited from the Pirelli MT60™ RS, this tyre provides agile road handling, comfort, grip and traction on dirt and gravel conditions. This is due to the different shape of the knobs: lower in the central part for better rolling on tarmac, higher on the lateral part to handle light off-road terrain.

The motorcycle-derived profile provides superior grip when leaning. The Angel™ XT Urban meets the ECE-R75 and ECE-R88 certification requirements and is both suitable for traditional and electric bycicles.

Compound

The PROCompound Urban is a special silica-based rubber formulation which maximises on grip and mileage, both fundamental features when dealing with urban cycling in every weather condition.

The Angel™ Urban range meets the ECE-R75 certification, meaning that the tyres meet the European standards specific to the needs of speed e-bikes that go up to 50km/h (31mph).

The reflective stripe meets the approval requirements in the European ECE-R88 regulations that the reflective bands emit a sufficiently visible light even at an unfavourable angle.

Structure

The HyperBELT construction is the urban-specific solution that focuses on puncture protection: the 60tpi Nylon carcass protects the tyre against cuts while an added 5mm layer of rubber offers extra protection against external objects such as nails and thorns.

HyperBELT is a resistant and durable construction which handles the common obstacles of urban cycling.
