Bridgestone BATTLAX BT-016 Hypersport/Track Rear Motorcycle Tire 190/55-17
Product Description
Bridgestone BATTLAX BT-016 Hypersport/Track Rear Motorcycle Tire 190/55-17
- New multi-compound technology derived from MotoGP delivers the grip performance demanded in every aspect - braking, maximum side grip in cornering, and strong traction at the exit of a corner
- Rear tire features a new triple compound (5LC) The center compound offers good stability, the shoulder compound transfers power to the road with strong traction while the edge compound offers strong side grip and solid contact feeling at extreme lean angles
- The rear tires L shaped grooves enhance shock absorption and rear-end steering. Groove location not across tread center area provides both wet performance and strong traction. High speed durability is also maximized
- The steel MS-BELT (mono-spiral belt) construction applied to front and rear tires absorbs sudden impact from bumps and offers high stability and tremendous line-holding in corners
- HTSPC- ( High Tensile Super Penetrated Cord - Mono Spiral Belt ) technology in front and rear tire provides rich contact feel, strong grip and high-speed stability. 3D-CTDM ( Comprehensive Tire Design Method ) is advanced tire design technology that enables dynamic, three-dimensional simulations of tire performance at all lean angles.
Bridgestone Battlax BT-016 ProRear Tire Bridgestone has improve upon the original Battlax BT-016 line by incorporating the cutting edge MotoGP multi-compound, polymer technology. These ultra-high-performance radials have been designed to maximize the performance of all sportbikes in all conditions. BT016 utilizes a multi-compound formulated with technology "Silica Rich EX", "RC Polymer", for outstanding grip in all conditions
Silica Rich contains a combination of two special components to improve drywetlife performance
RC Polymer controls the change of properties of rubber in any temperature and assists the silica effect
Front uses a dual-compound to provide grip in all riding conditions and parallel S-shaped grooves enhance shock absorbtion
Rear uses a double-compound to provide stronger traction and the L-shaped grooves enhance shock absorbtion
3-D-C.T.D.M. Comprehensive Tire Design Model is advanced tire design technology that enables dynamic, three-dimensional simulations of tire performance at all lean angles
Provides hyper flexibility to respond to strict GP regulations
Includes good bump absorption, grip and stability during high-speed riding
W- rated for speeds up to 168 mph
