CO CONST NSTRU RUCTION: CTION: FRO FRONT NT Smaller Crown profile Higher camber thrust forces generated with increasing the lean angle. Contact patch Better pressure distribution Construction and Technologies 3LC construction high-stiffness bead fillers Benefits Better handling and precision without losing the superb neutral feeling.
CO CONST NSTRU RUCTION: CTION: RE REAR AR Larger Crown profile Together with optimized belt ~30% less construction and groove positioning, it upgrades the rear feeling Increased cornering stability. slip area Contact patch 30% Less slip area in the contact area Benefits More adhesion and more grip Less wear due too reduced slip Better traction with controllable feeling
CO COMPOUND MPOUND New compound New shoulder compound to tame the roads and give the right confidence on maximum lean angle. Benefits The new compound provides a larger micro contact patch. Higher grip Faster cornering High confidence in any conditions
