Metzeler 2526000 RACETEC RR Rear Motorcycle Tire 190/50ZR17

The Metzeler RACETEC RR is a high-performance rear motorcycle tire engineered specifically for road racing applications, featuring an advanced dual-compound Cap and Base construction with a highly conductive center strip that redistributes heat to the shoulder compounds during long straights, maintaining optimal operating temperature and ensuring maximum grip when leaning into corners.

Key Features:

• Winner of the 2014 Supersport TT Isle of Man Tourist Trophy
• Developed for the most challenging racing conditions including circuit length, speed, altitude, temperature variation and variety of tarmac surfaces
• Advanced compound recipes blend polymers and resins with different grades of Carbon Black to maximize hysteresis even on slippery surfaces
• Composite structure differentiated between the crown and sides of the carcass to react properly to different racing circumstances
• Available in three compound options (K1=Soft, K2=Medium, K3=Hard) based on asphalt conditions, temperature, bike setup and riding style
• High resistance to abrasion thanks to homogeneous dispersion of components achieved through Metzeler's exclusive patented continuous mixing process

The tire's compounds, tread pattern, profile and structure are precisely calibrated to provide consistent performance throughout the tire's life, delivering racing grip whether on track or aggressive street riding. The crown structure features special Rayon fiber with high linear density and stiffness that maintains shape under high stress and dampens rebound strokes by distributing impact forces throughout the carcass.
