The Mitas C-12 motorcycle tire is designed for installation on the rear wheel of a motocross motorcycle. According to the manufacturer's specifications, this model is perfect for moving on mud, earth, and sand. In other words, the Mitas C-12 is a universal model that demonstrates maximum efficiency mainly on "soft" surfaces.
Features of the tread pattern
The tread pattern of this model features an open design with a large number of traction edges. They are formed by numerous rectangular blocks located in various parts of the tread. In the central part, they form many groups that, in turn, create very long transverse traction edges, thanks to which the tire demonstrates excellent traction and adhesion characteristics in the longitudinal direction.
In the shoulder areas of the tread pattern, the Mitas C-12 also has a large number of individual blocks that are compact in size and arrangement. They are designed to provide maximum performance in soft soils and when cornering, allowing the tire to demonstrate excellent traction even at a significant angle of the motorcycle.
Excellent self-cleaning properties of the tread
Another feature of this model is the excellent self-cleaning properties of the tread. They are ensured by the very large distance between the block groups in the central part of the tread pattern and between individual elements in the shoulder areas. This is enough for the tread to self-clean even from large stones, not to mention smaller soil particles.
