Description
The Supersport tire for your daily leans, enhancing the pleasure of riding without worrying about the unexpected, be that changing tarmac or weather conditions.
METZELER SPORTEC M9 RR innovative chord technology has contributes to a larger space for the rubber to dynamically perform, without effecting the stiffness. The strong structure provides a quick and predictable response to riding inputs whilst at the same time delivers an enjoyable, smooth and relaxed riding experience.
Thanks to innovative mixing process and to ultra-fine silica, SPORTEC M9 RR features full silica in all compounds for both front and rear sizes. SPORTEC M9 RR performs optimally also at low temperature. The speed of warm up, allows you to confidently enjoy your first corner. The sharp central contact patch efficiently moves standing water into the adjacent longitudinal grooves. The grooves deliver outstanding stability, by draining more water as speeds increase and as the weather worsens.
The Cap&Base dual-compound layout consists of a soft compound on the side to promote high cornering grip. This is supported by a harder layer to ensure consistency and thermal balance. Regardless of how wet the surface is, or the level of the tarmac, significant levels of grip is provided. The directional center grooves deliver stability when upright. Mid-lean grooves maximize the grip to deliver flawless feedback when cornering. The slick shoulders further enhance your riding confidence when at full lean.
