Tyre Types

Motorcycle Tyre

Motorcycle tyres are specifically engineered for two-wheeled vehicles, with rounded profiles that allow the bike to lean through corners. They face unique demands including extreme lean angles, high heat generation, and the need to provide all braking and traction through just two contact patches. The UK legal minimum tread depth for motorcycles over 50cc is 1mm.
