PirelliCinturato Gravel H 700c Tire(Return to Product Page)

The tires looked great, and I was excited to use them. However, they did not fit my Specialized Diverge Carbon frame. The Diverge specs suggest that my frame has clearance for up to 700x42 tires, but these (700x40) just didn't fit. Don't know if it was tires or frame, but - FYI. Disappointed, and I couldn't return because (although unused) my mechanic discarded the packaging! Oh well.

I bought a pair of these (40 mm width) in early 2022 and have ridden about 1900 miles on them. Road surfaces were about half and half moderately smooth asphalt and dirt/gravel. I expect another 500+ miles from them at this point. I rotated tires front to back after about 1200 miles. No flats. Had some puncture vine thorns, which the sealant easily handled.

Purchased these for my travel bike. Great for hard pack and pavement. So far they are great! Easy to mount up and they are holding pressure very well. I am very impressed with Pirelli tires.

I bought these for a 250 mile gravel ride. Put about another 250 miles training for the ride. Tread is almost gone after the 500 combined miles. Also got a flat tire on the main ride. Small thorn made its way through the tire. Maybe I shouldn't expect more but listed as a gravel tire wanted better results. On smooth road and the more compact sections of trail they worked great.

I use this for a lightweight tubeless tire/wheelset for summer months on my commuter/gravel ride. The traction on pavement is excellent with very low rolling resistance. On light gravel and dirt they perform very well. Tubeless set-up on DT Swiss DB460s was simple and they have been trouble-free.

I've had them all and this (and the M) are simply the best gravel tires for wear, puncture resistance and rolling resistance. My buddy and I Just did the Unbound Gravel with no punctures. They're worth the price !

If your gravel bike wheels can handle the width of these tires it's a no brainer. Tires are solid and comfortable.

I have this tire on my Salsa Cutthroat that I am currently using for short local gravel rides. I have not had them on for long but so fsr, they are performing well.

The 700 x 35 Cinturato H are definitely fast rolling tires on hard surfaces but the beads won't seal to my tubeless ready WTB rims. Very disappointed.

I'm now on my second set of these and am very impressed. They are very supple and provide a very pleasant ride on asphalt, and provide a surprising amount of grip on dry offroad surface, even when up out of the saddle on a climb. I've only ever gotten one flat on these, and it was because I'd let the sealant go absolutely bone dry. I want to branch out and try new tires, but it's hard to justify when I love these so much.

Finally got my Pirelli's out for a proper gravel ride. I was impressed. This is a fast tire. On pavement it almost feels like a road tire. On smooth gravel or hardpack it is fast. Today's race had one rolling hill after another and I was in a group of about 15 riders for much of it. On every descent I passed most or all riders simply coasting. I think the tires were the reason. I was simply rolling faster than other riders. The tire is great on pavement, hard pack and smooth gravel. It does OK on chunky stuff - today's ride ended with about 3 miles of rough jeep road and single track and these tires did fine. It has more grip than I expected in loose corners or loose over hardpack roads - even when climbing on loose stuff there was no slippage. I was able to carry speed through loose corners without the tires sliding out. Overall this seems to be a good all around tire for mixed surface rides or smooth gravel.

Tucson is close to paradise, but the roads resemble hell. Much of the asphalt on the road surfaces in Tucson has burned up and we're left with essentially solid gravel. I put these tires on my cross bike to lessen the beating. They work great and the Pirelli logo make me look like I'm somebody.

Solid performance year after year on gravel, mud and pavement. All with bike pack gear and my 200+ lb body. Great tire and it doesn't throw a lot at those following:) Very pleased!

I put a set of these on my Soma Double Cross for my winter commuter bike here on the Oregon coast. I run them with fenders and despite being billed as a dry, compact surface tire they perform great with fenders on my roads which spare primarily gravel with dirt, mud and very sketchy asphalt and lots of rain. Comparable to the Panaracer and Hutchinson tires I've got on other 700c wheels.
