Description Bridgestone Hoop H01
The summer motorcycle tire Bridgestone Hoop H01, like other representatives of this line, is designed for so-called "sports" scooters. By this term, the Japanese tire manufacturer implies not motorcycle equipment, but its owners who prefer a sports driving style. That's why the key feature of this model is its excellent traction and coupling properties, both on dry and wet roads.
Attractive tread pattern design
Despite the fact that this model is designed exclusively for scooters, its design is made in an attractive aggressive manner, which is more typical of tires for more powerful sports bikes. The main contribution to the external attractiveness is made by massive arrow-shaped blocks located in the shoulder areas along the entire tread. Thanks to them, the contact patch of the Bridgestone Hoop H01 at any given time has very long edges of adhesion, which is why the tire demonstrates excellent traction and coupling properties, both on dry and wet roads, as well as a short braking distance.
High resistance to aquaplaning
As mentioned earlier, the tread of this model has a large number of massive blocks. They are separated from other elements by wide drainage grooves. In combination with another longitudinal groove located right in the center of the tread, this allows the tire to demonstrate high resistance to aquaplaning even when moving at very high speeds.
"Double" contact patch
The aforementioned longitudinal drainage groove, located exactly in the center of the tread pattern, divides the contact patch into two parts. When moving in a straight line, this design feature allows the tire to demonstrate excellent directional stability, and when cornering, it preserves the size of the contact patch at the initial level, thus providing excellent adhesion.
Key features of Bridgestone Hoop H01
- The tire is specially designed for use on a wide range of scooters, differing in excellent applicability due to a wide size range;
- The "double" contact patch maintains large dimensions regardless of the driving mode, providing excellent adhesion in any conditions;
- Massive arrow-shaped blocks provide excellent traction and coupling properties in all directions;
- Excellent resistance to aquaplaning, thanks to the drainage longitudinal groove passing right through the center, as well as a multitude of transverse channels in the shoulder areas of the tread.
