Every scorpion has its habitat; every biker has their own riding style.
The new Scorpion™ Gravity line was developed with your riding style in mind. Whether you’re looking for maximum speed, the perfect balance between control and versatility, or maximum traction on the most challenging terrain—there’s a Scorpion™ tire designed just for you.
BlackSting, Red Claw, and Emperor each have a clearly defined character: With a modular system of tread patterns, casings, and compounds, every rider can build their ideal setup.
The new Scorpion™ line, inspired by racing performance and designed for modern gravity riding, maximizes grip, support, and durability—even when you’re pushing your limits.
The fastest of the Scorpions. Precise and unbeatable. It strikes before you even see it.
The Black Sting scorpion is among the most lethal and lightning-fast predators found on trails and in the desert. Its stinger is feared and respected, striking with speed, precision, and deadly intent. In the same spirit, the Scorpion BLACKSTING is engineered to move fast and precisely across hard and compact terrain. Agile, sharp, and decisive, it is built for riders who demand maximum efficiency and control when speed is everything. Its completely new tread pattern is developed for pure speed. The low-profile, fast-rolling knobs are optimized to minimize rolling resistance while maintaining consistent traction and braking stability on firm surfaces. Used as a complete set for high-speed trail riding, or as a front and rear tire in mixed setups or trail conditions setups paired with the Scorpion Emperor, Blacksting delivers the perfect combination of traction, rolling speed, and support.
The 60 TPI carcass is the solution featuring sidewall protection and has a weight of 700 to 900 grams, making it the lightest carcass in the product line. It is designed for riders who expect responsiveness and efficiency on climbs. Its clean and precise handling also provides reliability and control on descents.
The Supersoft compound has been developed to deliver the highest levels of grip and damping, even in the most extreme conditions and racing environments. Its softer formulation enhances the tyre’s ability to conform to the terrain, improving traction and control through the most technical and high-speed sections. Perfect for racing and the toughest terrain, it is the ideal choice when grip and precision are non-negotiable.
