The Metzeler Lasertec motorcycle tire is designed for highway models of motorcycle vehicles. This model is distinguished by its unparalleled riding qualities, which are ensured by the widespread use of advanced technologies in its design.
The range of tire sizes can be called comprehensive. It certainly has a suitable size for almost any model of modern highway motorcycle. A distinctive feature of this tire is the combination of a classic highway tread with a number of technological innovations that have provided it with excellent operational characteristics.
First of all, it is worth noting the MRC (Multi Radius Countur) technology. Its main goal is to provide maximum performance in any driving conditions. This task was successfully solved by German tire manufacturers with the help of a profile that changes its steepness from the center to the sidewalls of the tire. This made it possible to achieve a maximum contact area, regardless of the driving mode. As a result, it was possible to ensure excellent directional stability not only when driving in a straight line but also when cornering, which, in turn, significantly improved safety.
The next technological innovation of the Metzeler Lasertec tire was the MBS (Metzeler Belt System) technology. This technology proved to be so effective that the German manufacturer has patented it. Its key feature is the introduction of an additional layer with diagonal winding into the tire design. This design solution made it possible to significantly increase the tire's resistance to deformations, which, in turn, increased stability in all driving modes. As a result, with the same mass-dimensional characteristics, it was possible to significantly improve dynamic performance, which allows the tire to be used on more powerful motorcycles.
Main features of the Metzeler Lasertec motorcycle tire
- A new rubber compound with an increased content of silicon-containing components has improved grip on wet roads, while increasing the elasticity and resistance of the tread to wear;
- The use of polyester in the design of the carcass made it possible to significantly reduce its weight, which improved handling and comfort level;
- The "classic" tread pattern provides excellent resistance to aquaplaning, low rolling resistance, and even pressure distribution across the contact patch, which has increased the tire's service life.
