TECHNOLOGY:

 

Dual Compound®: Tyre composition presents 2 types of rubber, one harder on the rolling surface and one softer on the sides. This is a combination of a soft silica rubber on the surface of the tyre to optimise grip and mud shedding, and a harder rubber underneath to reinforce the knobs and help resist puncture. The soft rubber is in direct contact with the ground, while the harder compound is between the tread and the tyre casing.

 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

 

TPI (Threads Per Inch): This is the measurement of the thread density in the tyre's body. The higher the density, the lighter, more flexible and smooth the tyre.

 

Bead: A tyre bead is a bundle of copper, aramid or carbon wires and it is the part of the tyre that anchors it to the rim. Rigid beads (TR) are made from copper and soft beads (TS) are made of aramid or carbon. They are lighter and more resistant allowing the tyre to bend without damage: 

  • Rigid bead: robustness (33 to 66 TPI)
  • Soft bead: flexibility and efficiency (66 to 127 TPI)
