Bridgestone Motorcycle tire T33 120/70 ZR 18 (59W) TL

Discover the BATTLAX SPORT TOURING T33, a tyre specially designed for the latest generation of Sport Touring motorcycles.

• Increased longevity: +47% compared to its predecessor
• Excellent grip on both dry and wet surfaces
• Unique specification, suitable for both lightweight and heavier motorcycles
• Smooth handling in all conditions
• A true trusted partner for long-distance and daily journeys

Technologies:

BI-GUM (3LC) + CAP & BASE

• The Bi-Gum technology combines a hard rubber in the centre to increase mileage and a softer rubber on the shoulders to improve grip when leaning.
• The Cap & Base system enhances the rigidity of the tread, thus optimising grip and shock absorption.

ULTIMAT EYE

• Measurement and simulation technology for the tyre's contact area. It optimises the interaction between the tyre and the road, reducing the risk of slipping while improving grip and longevity.

MONO SPIRAL BELT

• Made of lightweight, strong filaments wrapped around the tyre, it ensures a uniform grip feel. This technology reduces weight, improves adhesion, stabilises high-speed performance, and provides better shock absorption.

NANOPRO-TECH™

• This technology optimises the molecular structure of the tyre, improving the bond between rubber and silica molecules. It reduces friction, heat, and tread deformation, thus increasing grip and mileage.

RC POLYMER

• Optimisation of silica distribution in the rubber compound, improving the tread strength. This technology enhances performance on wet surfaces while optimising mileage.

SILICA RICH (rear tyre)

• The addition of silica in the rubber compound provides exceptional grip in cold and wet conditions, delivering excellent performance on wet surfaces and at the start of rides, before the tyre reaches its optimal temperature.

SILICA RICH EX (front tyre)

• The silica content is enhanced to improve grip on wet surfaces, thus ensuring safer grip, particularly for the front tyre.

HIGH TENSILE SUPER PENETRATED CORD (HTSPC)

• Composite steel cables, wrapped in insulated rubber filaments with high thermal conductivity. This technology optimises heat transfer, reducing the risk of blowouts and improving stability at high speeds as well as tyre durability.

Advantages and Features

Unprecedented mileage

• The introduction of a new rubber compound for the rear profile, combined with an evolution in design and tread rigidity, allows for a longevity increase of 47% for the T33 compared to its predecessor.

A unique specification for all motorcycles

• Thanks to structural changes made to the construction, particularly at the belt level, the T33 adapts well to both lightweight and heavy motorcycles. This new design offers progressive handling and excellent feedback, instilling greater confidence for the rider.

Excellent performance on wet roads

• The T33 improves upon the already remarkable wet performance of its predecessor. It requires an approximately 10% smaller lean angle to turn on a wet road. Its advanced construction also helps reduce jolts in the steering. In case of sudden rain, the T33 provides excellent feedback, ensuring a confident ride.
