Bilbao (Spain) – The new Pirelli Angel GT tyres début on Basque soil in Bilbao for the unveiling of the latest arrival to the Ducati house, the DUCATI Multistrada 1200 S Granturismo. In fact, the new Angel GT sport touring tyre in the 190/55 R17 size on the rear and 120/70 R17 on the front will be standard equipment on this brand new version of the appreciated Borgo Panigale model as yet another demonstration of the strong "made in Italy" partnership between the two companies.
Angel GT conveys Pirelli's maximum DNA levels in terms of performance, which stays high for the entire life of the tyre, as well as remarkable mileage that is at least 15% more than the Angel ST. The typical Pirelli sports attitude and top notch performance on wet roads goes along with this feature thanks to an in depth study of the compounds and geometry as well as the positioning of the grooves in the tread. In fact, the unique nature of the Angel GT lies precisely in the fact that its excellent characteristics suffer limited deterioration as it eats up kilometres, all the way to the end of the product's life cycle. Pirelli sums up this property as “Performance Mileage”. Angel GT is the natural descendant of the Angel ST, a tyre with multiple victories under its belt in the sport touring comparison tests conducted by the most prestigious international motorcycling magazines. Compared to its predecessor, Angel GT substantially increases mileage, grip and handling in the wet and, even more importantly, is able to maintain those properties at a high level over time.
The 195 HP produced by the red fury from Borgo Panigale will hit the ground through the brand new, original equipment Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tyres in 120/70 ZR17 for the front and the fresh new 200/55 ZR17 for the rear. They will also be used starting this year by Superstock 1000 FIM Cup riders in the SC compound version
Multiple world Superbike champion Troy Bayliss had this to say after testing them on the Yas Marina circuit in Abu Dhabi: “Simply excellent tyres. I know Pirelli quality well, but this time they've managed to astonish me. Good job, Pirelli"
The new sizes of 100/70 R17 for the front and 125/70 R17 for the rear, for 2.5" and 3.5" rims respectively, are designed for 125cc and 250cc sport bikes and destined for the promising young riders of today who will become the key players of tomorrow
The legends of tomorrow are fuelled by their victories today and precisely for the purpose of following riders throughout every stage of their sports career, Pirelli has decided to broaden the Diablo Superbike range with new sizes of 100/70 R17 for the front and 125/70 R17 for the rear, for mounting on 2.5” and 3.5” rims respectively and use on 125cc and 250cc sport bikes.
PIRELLI PRESENTS THE NEW DIABLO SUPERCORSA - TOP PERFORMANCE ON THE TRACK AND ON THE ROAD
Initially produced in 120/70ZR17 front and 200/55ZR17 rear sizes, the tyre will be available in both the compound version, to be showcased during the 2012 FIM Superstock 1000 Cup, as well as the race replica road going version
11 November 2011 – Pirelli announces the world premiere of the new Diablo Supercorsa, the Italian maker’s new tyre perfect for professional riders and motorcyclists who have a sporty riding style but love the racetrack as well. The newest member of the Diablo family is being presented in occasion of EICMA 2011 at the first flagship PZero Moda store opened this past September on the famed Corso Venezia in Milan. The Diablo Supercorsa will be initially produced in the 120/70ZR17 front and 200/55ZR17 rear and will be used in 2012 in the SC (Special Compound) version only by the riders of the Superstock 1000 FIM Cup and these same sizes will also be available in an SP (Sport Production) race replica version suitable for daily use on the road.
Pirelli will progressively introduce this new tyre, first in the racing world with the release of the compound version that will be used in the FIM Superstock 1000 FIM Cup starting next year and then to expand the available range at the end of 2012, introducing a broader range of racing sizes to extend use of the new tyre in various national championships where Pirelli now competes. Finally in early 2013, the road going race replica version will be made available in the common 180/55, 190/55 and 190/50 size for the rear.
The MICHELIN Power Pure lineup of sports bike tyres is being broadened in 2011 with the addition of a new version in two sizes. This tyre provides bikes with lively handling and agility while vastly enhancing driving enjoyment. It owes its exceptional performance to architecture, materials and tread design directly inspired by MICHELIN racing tyres. The latest-generation MICHELIN 2CT technology wears evenly while preserving the tyre’s dynamic features throughout its entire life.
January 2010 – Pirelli announces the immediate availability of the new race-replica slick Diablo Superbike PRO on occasion of the pre-season World Superbike tests in Portimão, Portugal. The new tyre represents a natural link for end users to the professional racing world, extending experiences and know-how from years of WSBK activity to those devoted to competition training, trackday riding and racing for fun. All this in a rewarding package focused on performance lasting over multiple weekends, consistency throughout sessions and easy set up.
The latest sport motorcycle tire from Pirelli intended to span both street and track usage As Pirelli gains more knowledge and experience as the spec tire manufacturer for the World Superbike Championship, that technology continues to trickle down to its street-oriented production rubber for sale to the general public. The latest example of that racing development is the company’s new Diablo Rosso Corsa tire that was unveiled at the Milan EICMA show. Intended as a replacement for the Diablo Corsa III tire that debuted back in ‘06, the new Diablo Rosso Corsa is said to exceed its predecessor’s performance in key areas such as overall mileage and grip in both dry and wet conditions. The new Pirelli is credited with three design patents, the foremost being Enhanced Patch Technology (EPT), derived from the company’s extensive WSBK experience for an optimized contact patch area at all lean angles on road and track, providing rider confidence and effective power transfer to the ground in any riding condition. EPT is complemented by the “III zones compound” rear tire, with a new compound in the middle section offering better mileage; ample shoulder zone compound is straight from the WSBK arena. The Diablo Rosso Corsa’s tread pattern includes a slick-like area on the rear shoulders while the tread grooves are selectively concentrated in the centre and shoulders. The aggressive tread design results in quick warm-up and consistent water drainage for great control on wet surfaces.
World premiere at the circuit in the Algarve (of Portugal) at the press conference presenting the 2009 World Superbike, for which Pirelli is the exclusive tire supplier until 2012.
Portimão (Portugal) 23 January 2009 - Pirelli presents a world preview at the circuit in the Algarve in Portugal the Angel ST, the motorcycle tyre with a changing tread pattern and footprint design on the ground: first the appearance of an Angel, then the silhouette of a Demon, representing at the same time the double soul of the product - reliable and sporty. Angel ST is dedicated to riders who love to travel by motorcycle and thus favor reliability, safety and durability. This double soul matches the alternate desires of the Sport Tourer, who at the right times, does not want to sacrifice the thrills of the curve and the emotion of acceleration.
Impressive handling and response thanks to the enhanced profile - Mileage and regular wear thanks to the Diablo like pattern design - Exceptional wet and dry grip thanks to the moto derived compound
