SILICA RICH EX

Performance in wet conditions is improved by increasing the amount of silica compared to conventional SILICA RICH.

Nanopro-Tech

NanoPro-Tech is the name of a technology that facilitates the realization of the required features in a tire by controlling the material microstructure through structural design at the molecular level. It is one of Bridgestone’s fundamental technologies.

ULTIMAT EYE

Visualization of the tire contact patch behavior with measurement and simulation technology. Supplies less slip area for good traction while riding and improves wear life.

HTSPC

Bridgestone was the very first motorcycle tire manufacturer to utilize 1X5 filament rubber insulated steel (MSB) in the manufacture of its motorcycle radial tires. This makes the tire more flexible, provides more stability without a reduction in shock absorption, and minimizes the generation of heat throughout the tire.

RC Polymer

RC Polymer technology optimizes the distribution of silica within the rubber compound and improves tread flexibility allowing greater contact with the road surface in both hot and cold conditions. The reduction in molecular friction also improves rolling resistance, therefore increasing fuel economy.

MS•BELT

MSB construction means that a continuous single strand is wrapped around the circumference of the tire. This one-piece construction eliminates overlapping of belts, seams, and joints. An MSB tire is lighter than conventional multi-cross belt construction, it also has more stability since it minimizes heat generation inside the tire and gives high shock absorption.

3LC (Dual Compound)

Provides grip performance demanded in all riding modes. The center compound offers linear handling. The shoulder compound secures high grip and solid contact feel.

5LC (TRIPLE COMPOUND)

Offers ideal grip performance demanded in all riding modes. The center compound provides good stability. The shoulder compound transfers engine power to the road with strong traction. The edge compound offers strong side grip and solid contact feel at deep lean angles.
