The brand with the elephant logo, announced the arrival of the new range of Vintage and Classic products with an international press conference at the Cologne Motorcycle Show

SPORTEC™ Klassik is the new METZELER tyre in the Classic segment for owners of motorcycles built from the 70s. A segment #METZELER has always shown a great deal of attention, as proven by the current Vintage and #Classic range which includes products such as the Perfect ME 11, Perfect ME 77, ME 22, Block C and Lasertec.

Bound to a technology that, although still valid, could not fully benefit from the rapid development of the last decade, these motorcycles are often at a disadvantage compared to most modern machines equipped with the most sophisticated safety systems and cutting-edge tyres.
The tyres of these machines have many diverse sizes which are now rarely used in new street and touring motorcycles, and for this reason they are often neglected in the design of new products by the tyre manufacturers.

PIRELLI MT 60 RS is the Pirelli tyre designed for the DUCATI SCRAMBLER, the latest model launched by the Borgo Panigale company in four versions: Icon, Urban Enduro, Full Throttle and Classic.

The front 3.00' x 18' and the rear 5.50' x 17' wheels of the DUCATI SCRAMBLER are designed to be lightweight and will fit as original equipment the new enduro street tyres from Pirelli, the MT 60™ RS 110/80 R18 front and 180/55 R17 rear. These have been specially made for the DUCATI SCRAMBLER with a dedicated design of the knobs which offers excellent handling on any terrain.

The positive experience with the 4.00-18 K28, which is used on the #URAL_RETRO, among other things, has prompted Heidenau to also bring the 4.00-19 dimension onto the market as a sidecar tire. Here too, the large contact area will ensure that the driving forces are distributed optimally and wear is minimized.

The newly developed tire structure is also specially designed to transfer the steering forces of the sidecar to the road in a targeted manner, thus ensuring good handling and braking behavior.

The 4.00 -19 TT Heidenau K28 motorcycle tire will be available from retailers from spring 2015.
