Bridgestone Motorcycle tire T33 170/60 ZR 17 (72W) 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, suited for both lightweight and heavier motorcycles
• Flexible handling in all conditions
• A true trusted partner for long-distance and daily journeys

Technologies:

BI-GOMME (3LC) + CAP & BASE

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

ULTIMAT EYE

• This technology measures and simulates the tyre's contact patch. It optimises the interaction between the tyre and the road, reducing the risk of slipping and improving grip and longevity.

MONO SPIRAL BELT

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

NANOPRO-TECH™

• This technology optimises the molecular structure of the tyre, enhancing 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's durability. This technology enhances wet performance while also optimising mileage.

SILICA RICH (rear tyre)

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

SILICA RICH EX (front tyre)

• The silica content is increased to enhance grip on wet surfaces, ensuring safer grip, particularly for the front tyre.

HIGH TENSILE SUPER PENETRATED CORD (HTSPC)

• Composite steel cables wrapped with isolated rubber filaments that have high thermal conductivity. This technology optimises heat transfer, reducing the risk of blowouts and improving high-speed stability and tyre durability.

Benefits 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 47% increase in the longevity of the T33 compared to its predecessor.

A unique specification for all motorcycles

• Thanks to structural changes made in the construction, particularly regarding the belts, the T33 adapts well to both lightweight and heavy motorcycles. This new design provides progressive handling and excellent feedback, instilling increased confidence in the rider.

Excellent wet road performance

• The T33 improves upon the already remarkable performance of its predecessor on wet surfaces. It requires a steering angle that is about 10% lower to turn on a wet road. Its advanced construction also helps reduce steering jolts. In the event of a sudden downpour, the T33 provides excellent feedback, ensuring a confident ride.
