Pirelli makes tyres for a wide range of performance applications so we've come to their factory near Milan to take a look at how they're combining expertise from other fields into their mountain and road bike tyres. In 2020, the Pirelli factory at Bollate was converted into somewhat of a bike tyre specialist facility, using a combination of clever engineering and automation in its various processes. Follow Ollie inside as he seeks out the #prototype models adorning several race bikes at the Strada Bianche.
