New product: Pirelli Diablo Rosso III

The Diablo Rossi III is the direct successor of Diablo Rosso II, taking advantage of all the research and know-how acquired by Pirelli in the Superbike World Championship over the last 12 years.

The main technical characteristics of the Diablo Rossi III are:

1. The twin-compound rear tyre with high percentages of silica which is claimed to provide grip in all conditions;
2. The racing-derived profiles; and
3. The tread which presents a pattern that is an evolution of the flash symbol already present on the Diablo Supercorsa.

Pirelli claims the above translate into the following advantages:

1.    Superior handling and stability;
2.    Exceptional grip, in the wet and dry; and
3.    Performance consistency over time.

The tread pattern of the Diablo Rossi III derives directly from the Diablo Supercorsa competition tyre, with Pirelli engineers considering it important to maintain the grooves with the typical and distinctive “flash” pattern on the tread because it is "recognised as an expression of competitiveness and aggressiveness".

The rear tyre is dual compound with a large side strip of high-grip compound and a central strip which guarantees the mileage. More specifically the profile is divided in a proportion of 40-20-40 where the side compound, more high performing, covers a total of 80 percent of the entire tread while the remaining 20 percent in the central section is made up of a compound functional to stability and mileage.

The compound used on the side has a 100 percent silica formulation for grip on both dry and wet roads. The side compound is supported in the substratum by a harder compound which gives the tyre characteristics such as stability and precision in maintaining the trajectory in bends.

The same compound which in the side strips is present only in the substratum emerges instead in the central part covering a width of approximately 45mm of the tread. This compound also has a high percentage of silica (although less than 100 percent) and has the purpose of ensuring stability at high speed.

The front tyre is a single compound with a silica content of 100 percent.
