Bridgestone Motorcycle tire T33 160/60 ZR 18 (70W) 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 light and heavier motorcycles
• Smooth handling in all conditions
• A true trusted partner for long-distance and daily rides

Technologies:

BI-GOMME (3LC) + CAP & BASE

• The Bi-Gomme technology combines a hard compound in the centre to increase mileage and a softer compound on the shoulders for improved cornering grip.
• The Cap & Base system enhances the stiffness of the tread, thereby 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 both grip and longevity.

MONO SPIRAL BELT

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

NANOPRO-TECH™

• This technology optimises the tyre's molecular structure, enhancing the bond between the rubber and silica molecules. It reduces friction, heat, and tread deformation, thereby increasing grip and mileage.

RC POLYMER

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

SILICA RICH (rear tyre)

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

SILICA RICH EX (front tyre)

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

HIGH TENSILE SUPER PENETRATED CORD (HTSPC)

• Composite steel cords, wrapped in isolated rubber filaments with high thermal conductivity. This technology optimises heat transfer, reducing the risk of blowouts and enhancing 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 rigidity of the tread, allows for a 47% increase in the longevity of the T33 compared to its predecessor.

A unique specification for all motorcycles

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

Excellent performance on wet roads

• The T33 improves upon the already impressive performance of its predecessor on wet surfaces. It requires about a 10% smaller steering angle to turn on a wet road. Its advanced construction also reduces steering jolts. In case of sudden rain, the T33 provides excellent feedback, ensuring a confident ride.
