Faithful to his habits, the Pirelli tire manufacturer does not hesitate to draw generously on the experience gained thanks to his status as sole supplier in the World Superbike to introduce his latest sports motorcycle tire: the Diablo Rosso Corsa !

More efficient than the Diablo Corsa III it replaces, this Diablo Rosso Corsa is the subject of no less than 25 patents. Using the EPT technology (Enhanced Patch Technology, a controlled deformation of the shell to improve grip when cornering) developed in WSBK, it also uses three separate compounds on the rear tire and even has a slick zone on its shoulders !

Pirelli has also particularly worked on the design of its tire so that it optimizes the firmness of the rubber on the angle and uses a technology from the boxes of the "cousin" Metzeler: instead of a traditional tread, the Diablo Rosso Corsa has a 0 ° steel belt whose tension and number of strands vary over the width of the tire.

All these elements which, added to the know-how of Pirelli and the progress straight out of the Superbike, would allow the Diablo Rosso Corsa to claim a superior power transmission of 10 to 40 hp (just that!) According to the manufacturer, who refers to tests carried out with a "stock" CBR1000RR on an Italian circuit…

In addition to its high technological content, the new Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa also claims the unprecedented possibility of affixing labels comprising in particular the layout of the most prestigious circuits of the World Superbike, the flags of the different countries or the name and a message specific to the desires. of its owner ! Spaces on the front and rear sides have thus been specially designed to be able to affix these labels that everyone can freely create and order on the . The Diablo Rosso Corsa customization kit, which contains an exclusive set of six labels and the necessary adhesive material to affix them to the sidewall of the tires, will be created and ordered online from the .

By using telemetry measurement tools worthy of the factory Superbike teams, Pirelli would indeed have been able to precisely measure the parameters required to calculate the transfer of power from the tire to the ground and therefore decided to oppose its latest born to its direct competitors (Dunlop Qualifier RR, Michelin Pilot Pure, Bridgestone BT-016 and Sportec M5)…

Unsurprisingly, the Diablo Rosso Corsa would naturally be the tire that would allow you to accelerate the fastest and the strongest. !

In addition, this sporty motorcycle tire would present wet grip and endurance, superior to its predecessor: thanks to the use of resins and plasticizers "optimized in terms of chemical properties", Pirelli engineers would have refined the balance between grip in the dry and in the wet, while the implementation of a new drying process would allow "slower deterioration and therefore greater longevity", say the Italians.

The Diablo Rosso Corsa is available in the following sizes: 120 / 70ZR17 and 160 / 60ZR17, 180 / 55ZR17 and 190 / 50ZR17 as well as in 190 / 55ZR17. More details and videos about the Diablo Rosso Corsa on the .
