Pirelli P ZERO VELO : Road Clincher Tyres

Season:2019

Brand:Pirelli

Code:PIR-290

Back in the cycling tyre market after a 22 year hiatus, Pirelli bring a concise but developing range of road cycling tyres to the table. Set to challenge the established players, Pirelli's P ZERO Velo range offer excellent levels of grip both in wet and dry conditions whilst delivering on longevity, puncture resistance, comfort and speed. The range includes TT specific and all-seaon 4S tyres as well as this P ZERO VELO version designed to be a fast race and training tyre.

The P ZERO VELO is the company's race ready tyre and is pitched at the likes of Continental's GP 4000S II, Schwalbe's ONE and Vittoria's Corsa G+.  The P ZERO VELO features a host of proprietary technologies that are designed to balance the often juxtaposed requirements of grip, speed, low weight & handling and durability & puncture resistance.  

Like all the P Zero Velo tyres, the Velo draws on Pirelli's in-house SmartNET Silica compound - developed within both the 2 and 4-wheel motorsports industries. SmartNET Silica uses nano-rod particles arranged in a systemmatic rather than random pattern. Silica is naturally supple and has a great affinity for water and Pirelli claim that - in combination - these features not only make for a more durable tyre but that the wider surface area of the compound improves grip in the wet whilst also increasing elasticity at the same time as reducing heat build-up for improved rolling resistance in dry conditions. Furthermore, Pirelli's Ideal Contour Shaping - a differing radius profile and optimised material use in both the sidewall and tread crown - also engenders greater stability at speed and predictable, confident handling.

Pirelli have also drawn on their years of experience in motorcycle tyre supply to develop a unique tread pattern for the P-ZERO VELO tyres. This 'lightning bolt' Functional Groove Design not only makes for a quieter tyre, it improves water dispersal for even greater confidence when cornering in wet conditions. The pattern found on the standard VELO is a regualrly spaced single lightning bolt groove to assist in water dispersal and as a bonus, creates more even wear at the tyre surface for a more consistent ride feel over time. 

Whilst tyre choice is often a preference the ride feel of the P Zero Velo is immediately apparent. Like the Vittoria Corsa G+, the cornering grip is astonishing, with consistent feel over the surface of the tyre with no discernible change in grip often caused by variance in compound over the surface of the tread. Like the Corsa it is even more evident in the wet but it just tops the Corsa G+, my otherwise favourite tyre. Durability is impressive, and here again it does fair better than the Corsa G+ with fewer puncture issues in dirtier conditions often found in the gutters in Spring and Autumn, and lower wear rate.

At 15g lighter than both the Continental GP400S II and Corsa G+ (which when weighed on the shop scales are identical), the rotational mass that the Pirelli's save is not to be sniffed at and will make for faster acceleration, more direct cornering and more nimble handling overall.

The puncture resistance and durability of the P-Zero Velo comes in part from an aramid breaker that sits between the carcass and the rubber compound and though this is present on the 4S version, the VELO has a thinner SmartNET Silica tread for improved speed, supplness and lower rolling resistance

  • Low rolling resistance
