Pirelli Cinturato Adventure Classic TLR Gravel Tire 700x40c - Tan / Brown Wall

The ultimate companion for your bikepacking trips and mixed-terrain exploration. Featuring the protective ProWALL Gravel casing, long-lasting ProCompound, and the unmistakable vintage aesthetic of the Classic variant with brown sidewalls.

The Pirelli Cinturato Adventure Classic in size 700x40c (40-622) has been specifically engineered to deliver maximum reliability for multi-day, long-distance journeys. Thanks to its differentiated tread design — fast-rolling in the center and more aggressively lugged on the shoulders — it guarantees excellent traction on both compact and loose unpaved surfaces. The Tubeless Ready (TLR) technology allows you to ride at lower pressures, enhancing structural grip and vibration damping while maintaining high rolling efficiency.

• Size: 700x40c (ETRTO 40-622) – The most balanced width for fully-loaded gravel adventuring

• Casing: ProWALL Gravel 60 TPI with multi-layer side reinforcement for high cut resistance

• Compound: ProCompound Gravel, optimized for high mileage and consistent flat protection

• Colorway: Classic Brown (Black tread with a retro tan/brown sidewall)

• Regular Price: € 46.90 | Special Price: € 35.90

In-Depth Description

The Art of Exploration Meets Classic Styling: Discover the Pirelli Cinturato Adventure Bikepacking Tire.

Designed explicitly for riders who view gravel cycling as a gateway to discovery, the Pirelli Cinturato Adventure Classic flawlessly balances structural protection, traction, and mileage durability. The Classic Brown variant elevates your bike's aesthetics with a refined look, pairing the Italian brand's most advanced fabric technologies with an elegant tan sidewall that honors vintage cycling tradition.

Optimized Tread Pattern for Mixed Terrains

The tread profile is engineered to adapt smoothly to the unpredictability of self-supported bike travels:

• Fast-Rolling Center Strip: The central knobs are low-profile and tightly spaced to minimize rolling resistance and road buzz when traveling over paved roads or smooth, hard-packed gravel paths.

• Off-Road Inspired Shoulders: The lateral blocks progressively increase in height and spacing toward the edge, ensuring a stable footprint, predictable cornering traction, and extra bite when the ground becomes loose, damp, or chunky.

ProWALL Gravel Casing: Maximum Defense Against Cuts

When your bike is weighted down with bikepacking bags, the risk of rim pinches and lateral sidewall cuts on sharp stones spikes dramatically. Pirelli solves this with the ProWALL Gravel architecture:

• Sidewall Reinforcement: A protective layer of woven fabric is applied directly to the sidewalls of the 60 TPI casing, exponentially increasing resistance to pinch flats and lateral cuts from jagged rocks.

• Low-Pressure Stability: The ProWALL reinforcement supports the tire's shoulder even when you decide to lower pressures to glide over sand pits or rough cobblestones, ensuring precise steering and preventing tire squirm or rolling on the rim.

ProCompound Gravel: High Mileage, Zero Worries

Derived from technologies developed in Pirelli's motorsport laboratories and fine-tuned for gravel riding, the ProCompound formula prioritizes consistent behavior and longevity. Formulated from a balanced mix of advanced polymers, it delivers reliable chemical grip on both dry and wet surfaces while significantly limiting wear on the center tread, guaranteeing thousands of miles of worry-free exploration.

Mounting & Pressure Recommendations

CicloBottega Workshop Tech Tip:

The 700x40c size stands as the golden standard for modern gravel riding because it leaves plenty of frame clearance even in heavy mud conditions and fits nearly every gravel bike on the market. As a Tubeless Ready system, we highly recommend using fresh tire sealant during installation to instantly protect against micro-punctures from thorns. Always respect the pressure limits stamped on the sidewall, and keep in mind that for Hookless (straight-side) rims, the maximum allowed pressure must not exceed 5 bar (73 psi) per ETRTO guidelines.
