Wet Grip

+30%

Wet Grip Performance
High Dispersive Full Silica (HDFS) compound increases wet grip by 30% over the previous generation — silica with coupling agent and long-stream polymer, built on the latest mixer technology.

Dry Grip

+10%

Dry Grip Performance
The same all-new full-silica compound lifts dry grip by 10%, delivering more traction and stability whether you’re on the tarmac or heading off it.

Contact Pressure

278kPa

Average Contact Pressure
HDFS raises average contact pressure from 250kPa to 278kPa, spreading load more evenly across the footprint for a bigger, more consistent contact patch.

Spiral Steel Belt (SSB)

A traditional two-cut breaker gives higher Corner Power and sharper response, but at the cost of stability. The Spiral Steel Belt delivers good Corner Power with excellent stability performance.

Progressive Spiral Belt (PSB)

Three belt densities in one tyre. High density on the crown maintains stiffness at high speed, medium density builds lean angle confidence, and low density on the shoulder increases contact area for grip in the corner.

Optimal Profile FEA (OPA)

Finite element analysis shapes the tyre profile for an enlarged cornering contact area, giving improved grip as the bike leans over.

Full Silica Compound (HDFS)

Latest-generation silica with coupling agent and long-stream polymer. Increases wet grip by 30% and dry grip by 10% over the previous compound generation.

Cubic Pattern Design

The innovative Hex Cubic Design provides exceptional traction whilst reducing fuel consumption, allowing you to venture further into uncharted territory.

Reinforced Tread Pattern

The bottom bridge design of the tread grooves is reinforced for tread durability and driving stability.

Off-Road Traction / Water Drainage

High land-to-sea ratio tread grooves with the hex cubic pattern perform across diverse terrains, while also providing excellent water drainage, wet weather grip and performance.
