The Pirelli P ZERO Race TLR RS Classic is one of the most advanced and performance-oriented tires in the Pirelli road racing lineup.

Developed together with World Tour athletes, it is designed to deliver outstanding speed, grip and handling for racing, fast training rides and high-performance road cycling. 

This Classic 700x28c version combines the racing performance of the P ZERO RS platform with a premium tan wall look highly appreciated on modern endurance and performance road bikes.

RS version: built for speed

The tire uses the latest SmartEVO² compound together with the SpeedCORE casing technology developed by Pirelli to improve:

• Rolling efficiency
• Cornering grip
• Ride feel
• Wet weather performance
• Overall speed

The SpeedCORE construction integrates aramid particles to improve flexibility, durability and air retention in tubeless ready setups. 

Why choose 700x28c

The 700x28c size is now one of the most popular choices in modern road cycling because it provides an excellent balance between:

• Speed
• Comfort
• Rolling efficiency

It is suitable both for racing and long endurance rides on modern road surfaces.

Many cyclists choose 28c tires to run lower pressures and improve comfort and grip without sacrificing speed.

Cornering feel is especially confident and progressive, while the low rolling resistance makes it ideal for riders seeking top-level performance.

Rider feedback particularly highlights strong wet grip and a very smooth ride feel at high speeds.

It is especially popular on endurance, all-road and refined performance bike builds.
