Pirelli recalls P ZERO Race TLR tires because of bead defect

Published September 7, 2023

WASHINGTON (BRAIN) — Pirelli is recalling its P ZERO Race TLR tires because the bead can unseat from the rim, creating a fall hazard.

About 14,500 — 550 in Canada — tires size 28-622 are affected. The tires have either yellow, white, red, or gold branding on the sidewalls. The model name, number, tire ID, and production date code also are on the sidewalls. A table on the Pirelli website and in a recall notice helps identify affected SKUs. 

Pirelli has received one report of rapid air loss, resulting in a minor injury.

Consumers should immediately stop using the tires and contact Pirelli to receive a free replacement or a full refund. Pirelli can be reached at 800-622-2390 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. EDT Monday through Friday. The company also can be reached by email at consumer.affairs@pirelli.com.

The tires were sold at Competitive Cyclist, Trek, and Angry Catfish stores nationwide from March 2023 through July 2023 for about $100.
