Metzeler Roadtec 01 – a motorcycle tire from a renowned German manufacturer that differs from its predecessors with a whole set of characteristics.
Tread Pattern
It is equipped with an increased number of lamellas and notches, which are divided into groups according to their function. Thus, some of them provide stability of straight-line movement, others - are responsible for keeping the vehicle in turns, and others - for draining water masses. Due to their coordinated work, excellent grip with the road surface is achieved, including in conditions of high humidity.
Interact
The technology that had a positive impact on the model's properties, ensuring its increased resource, even distribution of load on the main elements. To this should be added a shortened contact patch, which affected the effectiveness of the grip properties and tread wear. This technology also affected the comfort of the ride and the clarity of control, allowing the driver to feel the vehicle very clearly.
Updated Compound
Grip properties (including on slippery road sections) are largely ensured by the composition of the rubber mixture. The latter contains an increased amount of silicon compounds, which has a positive effect on the fixing abilities of the tread. The main mass, namely 70% of the tread blocks with silicon, is located in the shoulder area. And in the central part, elements with the addition of soot are placed. They are distinguished by greater strength, which minimized tread wear, and also provide stability of movement in a straight line.
Main Features of Metzeler Roadtec 01
- the model is oriented towards high-speed driving, including off-road;
- dual-compound - more rigid in the central part, more gripping on the sides thanks to silicon;
- presence of several types of notches, grooves, and lamellas that are responsible for straight-line movement, stability in turns, and drying of the contact patch;
- wear resistance due to the compound and internal carcass.
