“When Giovanni Battista Pirelli got his start making rubber products in 1872, the internal combustion engine was still decades away. Before long, the Milan-based company was making rubber pieces for carriages and horse riggings, and by 1894 Pirelli was manufacturing the newly invented “clincher” style of bicycle tires.”
Nowadays, Pirelli manufactures tires for automobiles, motorcycles, truck & bus, and is the official tire supplier to Formula One. Just a few years ago, Pirelli ventured back into the world of bicycle tires. The company has an extensive range of gravel tires, one being the Cinturato Gravel M.

Thanks for the review. Any theories about thePirelli Gravel H, Vredestein Aventura, RH Oracle Ridge or ???? for more hardpack + bitumen?
Stephen, I have ridden exactly none of those tyres you referenced. Sorry!
No worries – keep up the good work! 😉
