Consolidating the strengths of the ROADTEC 01 - with its exceptional performance in wet conditions and high mileage - and enhancing the sporty characteristics in terms of the grip and agility needed by supersport, naked and sport-touring riders. To meet sports requirements that imply high performance at sharp lean angles, the tread design for the ROADTEC 01 SE builds on that of the ROADTEC 01, with an evolution towards a tire with a slicker shoulder, optimizing drive with a greater surface area coming into contact with the asphalt. Front tires inherit the latest version of the full-silica compound used for the ROADTEC 01 and feature the same tread pattern in the middle section, a key aspect of its exceptional grip on low-friction surfaces; shoulders are slicker, and the relative structural refinement optimizes performance through half and full lean, improving agility and steering stability. Rear tires use a bi-compound and, as with the front, feature a sportier evolution of the ROADTEC 01 tread pattern, aimed at offering greater drive at sharper lean angles together with comfort and driving pleasure capable of satisfying even the most demanding riders, both on long routes and winding roads. Blackwall. Tubeless. (TL) (W)-rated for speeds of 168+ mph.
