The Michelin Pilot Power motorcycle tire is the base model of a fairly extensive range, designed specifically for sportbikes. It differs from all other representatives in its extremely attractive price-to-quality ratio. This model offers excellent performance, despite the fact that the French manufacturer had to waive a number of advanced technologies to reduce production costs. Nevertheless, the solutions used in its design are distinguished not so much by simplicity as by extremely high efficiency.
MotoGP Compound
The tread of this model is made from a compound that uses the same components as the tires used in MotoGP road racing championships. First and foremost, these are polymer compounds. They provide tread strength against rupture, which made it possible to significantly increase the silica content in its compound. This component, in turn, makes the tread softer and at the same time resistant to the effects of centrifugal acceleration forces. On the one hand, such a tread grips the road much better, and on the other hand, it demonstrates excellent resistance to uneven and abrasive wear.
High Strength
The basis of the tire's design is an extremely strong, yet very lightweight carcass. This combination of properties was achieved through the use of modern synthetic materials. In addition, the French tire manufacturers supplemented the carcass design with additional reinforcing elements. We are talking about a breaker made from aramid cord, which, in turn, combines mechanical strength and low weight.
Key Features of the Michelin Pilot Power Tire
- an extremely attractive price-to-quality ratio, achieved through the absence of expensive technological solutions;
- a compound created using the same components as MotoGP tires, providing uncompromising performance with a long service life and stable traction properties throughout its entire duration;
- high strength and low weight due to the carcass design, which includes an additional breaker layer made of lightweight aramid fibers.
