FAQs

What is the primary intended use for this tyre?

This tyre is primarily designed for demanding enduro riding, including multi-day events and varied off-road terrain.

Is this tyre suitable for road use?

Yes, the tyre is DOT and ECE R75 homologated, making it legal for road use in many regions. However, always verify local regulations.

How does the hybrid compound benefit performance?

The hybrid compound is formulated to offer a balance between aggressive off-road grip and durability, allowing it to perform well across a variety of surfaces without compromising longevity.

What tyre pressure should I use?

Recommended tyre pressure varies greatly depending on riding style, terrain, and motorcycle weight. A general starting range for enduro is 12-20 PSI, but always refer to manufacturer recommendations or experiment for optimal performance.

Can I use this tyre for casual trail riding?

While it will perform well, its aggressive tread and hybrid compound are optimized for more demanding enduro conditions. For very light trail use, a less aggressive tyre might offer different benefits.

How long can I expect this tyre to last?

Tyre life depends heavily on riding conditions, rider style, and maintenance. However, it is designed for the rigors of long-distance enduro, suggesting good longevity for its intended application.

Troubleshooting

Tire doesn't hold air.

Check the bead seal between the tyre and rim. Inspect the rim strip and valve stem for damage. Ensure proper seating of the tyre on the rim.

Excessive vibration at speed.

Ensure the tyre is balanced correctly. Check for any damage or deformation to the tyre carcass or sidewall. Verify proper installation on the rim.

Poor grip in specific conditions.

Adjust tyre pressure. Lower pressure generally increases grip on soft or loose surfaces, while higher pressure is better for hardpack and reducing rolling resistance. Ensure the tyre is appropriate for the terrain being ridden.

Rapid tread wear.

Ensure correct tyre pressure is maintained. Avoid excessive wheelspin on hard surfaces. Consider terrain suitability if wear is premature.

Pros and Cons

  • Performance characteristics may differ slightly from pure motocross tires.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the tyre is fitted correctly to the rim according to manufacturer guidelines. Proper inflation is crucial for performance and longevity; consult tyre pressure recommendations for your specific riding conditions and bike weight. A typical starting point for enduro riding is between 12-20 PSI, but this can vary.

Compatibility: This is a 140/80-18 rear tyre. Always check your motorcycle's wheel size and clearance specifications to ensure compatibility. It is DOT and ECE R75 approved, meaning it meets road legality standards in regions where these certifications are recognized.

Care: Regularly inspect the tyre for any signs of damage, embedded objects, or excessive wear. Clean the tyre and rim periodically to remove dirt and debris that could affect performance or cause damage. Proper storage when not in use, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, will prolong its lifespan.
