Моторезина Heidenau K29 Motorcycle Sidecar

The Heidenau K29 Motorcycle Sidecar tire is produced by one of the oldest German tire manufacturers, known for its commitment to tradition. This feature is fully consistent with the given model, which is designed for installation on motorcycle sidecars.

According to the manufacturer, this tire was specifically created for motorcycle sidecars. This is confirmed by a number of design solutions applied in it, excluding the possibility of its installation on other motorcycle axles.

First of all, it is worth noting the almost flat profile of the tire's tread, which transitions into the sidewalls at almost a right angle. This shape made it possible to achieve a maximum contact area, while providing an even distribution of external pressure on it. The large contact patch provides excellent grip with the road surface, and the even distribution of external load - high resistance to uneven wear of the tread, which, in turn, significantly increased the life of the tire.

The next distinctive feature of the Heidenau K29 motorcycle tire is the tread pattern. Its design is more reminiscent of a car tire than a motorcycle tire. The tread pattern contains six longitudinal ribs, two of which have a rigid structure without any breaks. The other four longitudinal ribs are rows of separate rectangular blocks, the long edges of which are parallel to the direction of movement. The two solid ribs provide excellent directional stability and low rolling resistance, and the four block ribs - high braking efficiency.

In addition, this tire demonstrates excellent resistance to aquaplaning, which was achieved thanks to the exceptional efficiency of the drainage system, consisting of five longitudinal and many transverse drainage channels. Even more performance of the drainage system was achieved due to the placement of additional drainage lamellas on the blocks.
