The technical collaboration between Pirelli and Ducati is an example of successful synergy between two Italian greats which has also involved the new brand from Borgo Panigale: Ducati Scrambler. In fact, all the versions of the Scrambler are fitted with Pirelli MT 60‰ã¢RS tyres, developed specifically for the iconic Italian bike.

Thanks to this strong bond, the two companies decided to collaborate on the artistic aspect as well, commissioning Vibrazioniå¨ Art Design to create a work of art on the two-wheeler.

And so the ‰ÛÏSC-Rumble‰Û

Ducati Scrambler

MT 60‰ã¢ RS is the tyre designed by Pirelli for the Ducati Scrambler, introduced to the market by the manufacturer from Borgo Panigale on the Icon, Urban Enduro, Full Throttle and Classic versions. The 3.00‰Ûª‰Ûª x 18‰Ûª‰Ûª front wheels and the 5.50‰Ûª‰Ûª x 17‰Ûª‰Ûª rear wheels that the Ducati Scrambler mounts are, in fact, fitted with the new enduro-street Pirelli MT 60‰ã¢ RS 110/80 R18 tyres on the front and 180/55 R17 on the rear, specifically created for the Scrambler with a unique knob design that provides excellent performance on any terrain.

MT 60‰ã¢ RS has always been a reference product in the enduro street segment thanks to its ability to combine sport street performance with traction on unpaved roads. In developing the new sizes that Ducati requested for the four versions of the Scrambler, Pirelli completely redesigned the MT 60‰ã¢ RS in terms of specifications and performance.

Scrambler is a brand that includes bike, apparel and personalising accessories. The Ducati Scrambler is available in four versions, Icon, Urban Enduro, Full Throttle and Classic, which are just the tip of the iceberg to meet the needs and tastes of various types of bikers. Thanks to the wide range of accessories, anyone can create their own Scrambler. The Ducati Scrambler is not a vintage bike, but rather the ideal result of how the famous bike from Borgo Panigale would be today if Ducati had never stopped producing it.

Vibrazioniå¨ Art Design is a multifaceted company located in the Romagnolo countryside that operates in the design field, primarily in interior decoration.
