Description Heidenau K72 Scooter
The Heidenau K72 Scooter motorcycle tire is designed for installation on both steering and driving axles of scooters. At the same time, the presence of 8 size types in the assortment provides this model with excellent applicability. Another feature of this tire is the combination of sporty handling and high comfort level.
However, the carefully balanced balance between sportiness and comfort is a distinctive feature of the family of scooter road tires of this German manufacturer, which, in addition to the K72, includes 4 more models.
The design of the tread pattern of this model is distinguished not only by its ultimate functionality but also by its excellent aesthetic characteristics. The only elements of the tire's tread pattern are the crescent-shaped drainage grooves, which are arranged transversely relative to the direction of movement. However, their large size allows them to accommodate a sufficient amount of water, thereby providing good resistance to aquaplaning when driving on wet roads. As for traction on dry surfaces, it is provided in a similar way to racing tires, namely due to the elasticity of the rubber compound. It is this parameter that allows the tread to very closely fit all the irregularities on the surface of the road. However, unlike racing analogs, the rubber compound of this model is distinguished by its excellent wear resistance. In addition, thanks to the inclusion of special components in its composition, the German tire manufacturers were able to achieve excellent heat dissipation, which also had a positive effect on the tire's service life.
