The integration of the Pirelli P ZERO Race RS tires with the wide-channel Scope Artech rims ensures a smooth transition of airflow, while the Carbon-Ti SteelCarbon rotors provide consistent, fade-free braking power in all weather conditions. For the rider who refuses to choose between weight and speed, the Specialissima RC Founder Edition is the definitive answer.
