Metzeler Roadtec 01 Rear Tires

The Metzeler Road Tec 01 Tires represent the latest evolution in touring tires - enhanced grip on wet surfaces, increased mileage, and a high degree of compatibility with different motorcycles.

Features:

• Increased grip on wet roads, with a focus on low friction surfaces (such as city streets and worn tarmac, low temperature), thanks to radial position of grooves

• Rebalanced tire stiffness to allow a better adherence of the rubber with the tarmac micro-asperities, increasing mechanical grip even on lower friction surfaces

• Belt and carcass tension parameters upgraded to increase stability on rear tires during strong braking

• Increased mileage vs. Roadtec Z8 Interact (up to 10%), thanks to a different footprint shape (larger and shorter) which also enhances motorcycle handling

• Higher wear resistance, obtained through a revised land/sea ratio on the rear tire in conjunction with the new tread design, ensures product performance consistency allowing users to enjoy the tire for its entire service life

• Metzeler multi-compound with increased harmonization between the different compounds

• HWM (Heavy Weight Motorcycles) special version brings the ROADTEC 01 performances to a wider selection of motorcycles

  • Increased stability by reducing both intensity and duration of oscillations due to road irregularities or steering maneuvers

  • Distinguishable by a “Weight” icon next to the product name on the tire sidewall

  • Increased stability is reached by employing a 2-plies carcass on HWM rear tires, where standard rear tires have 1 ply

• Blackwall

• Tubeless (TL)

• W rated for speeds of 168+ MPH
