Description
Slick Tyre for Professional Racing
Developed and tested in road races, this slick tyre offers top adherence, agility, and predictability at all times. It ensures trajectory precision and high-speed stability, with adaptability across various asphalts, temperatures, and motorcycle setups. Performance consistency is maintained throughout lengthy road races.
- Front Compounds: The RACETEC™ RR SLICK is notable for its versatility on diverse asphalts and temperatures. The choice of front tyre compound depends on the rider's preference for stability and precision (K2 version) or predictability and edge grip (K1 version). Predictability in racing tyres alerts the rider when the limit of adherence is near, enhancing control and lap times.
- Rear Compounds: The rear tyre version is selected based on asphalt friction and temperature, with a focus on performance consistency over time and usage. Specific resins and a unique mixing process allow for use through multiple thermic cycles.
- Handling: The rear tyres feature an update in dimensions, with the 180/55 size evolving to 180/60 and the 190/55 to 200/60. This results in a larger contact patch and quicker transition to lean angles, providing more grip.
- Versatility: Designed for high adaptability across various motorcycles, the single-ply rear tyre structures are similar to those for hyper sports machines, allowing for tyre pressures close to manufacturer recommendations. The compounds are versatile, handling a wide range of asphalt roughness and operating temperatures.
