Save this page if you want that velvet touch to round out your dark, mysterious bike build. Pirelli just released an exclusive version of the P ZERO Race TLR. This new, all-black P ZERO Race TLR NERO targets those who want more than just speed in their bikes. They want la passione.

(All Images: Pirelli) How is the P-ZERO Race TLR NERO Different?

It stands apart from the P ZERO range thanks to its unique sidewall finishing, featuring no labels, a tone-on-tone, and what Pirelli calls a “velvet touch” finish. A Pirelli technology that is said to be directly derived from the UHP car tires of the Prestige segment. In addition to this super understated (and cool) aesthetic feature, the product comes with a different packaging.

The TLR NERO arrives in an all-black (super goth) packaging that looks more like the Metallica Black Album than a cycling product.

P-ZERO Race TLR NERO – Details

You might be disappointed if you’re looking for some super secret sauce for the P-ZERO Race TLR NERO. It is, on all accounts, the same (technology-wise) as the other P-ZERO Race TLR Tires, but it looks slightly more remarkable, which can add some watts to your ride.

The new P-ZERO Race TLR NERO tires are available in 28 and 30mm widths and will be available online and through Pirelli Dealers. Price: $85
