The all-around tire with the highest standards in the sport touring segment. Consistent performance-oriented pattern design for better drainage in wet conditions. More improved wet grip due to an optimized compound. The EasyHandling technology bestows the tire with linear handling even if stabilizing gyroscopic forces are nominal (e.g. when turning). Simultaneously, accuracy and 'groundingfeeling' are improved at benchmark level - applies to all riding situations in this segment. Comfortable and easy for all demands, whether on long rides or winding roads. Balanced characteristics from the first to the last mile. TractionSkin, a revolutionary new micro-rough tread surface, virtually puts an end to tire break-in. This is possible due to a new mold coating technology which eliminates the need for tire-release agents.
