PIRELLI PHANTOM SPORTSCOMP RS is a new competition tyre also approved for road use, designed for motorcycles with eighteen-inch wheels and intended for classic sprint and endurance races.
PHANTOM SPORTSCOMP RS combines the historic tread design of the iconic PHANTOMTM SPORTSCOMP with the latest technology for high performance track tyres, and is designed for contemporary classic racing applications.
The main advantages offered to the rider are the quick warm-up and the wide range of operating temperatures that allows entry to the track even without tyre warmers. PHANTOM™ SPORTSCOMP RS offers great consistency as the bike is lent over thanks to a dual-radius profile optimised for use on older chassis; once on the racing line at full lean, the large footprint area communicates control to the front and grip to the rear tyre.
PHANTOM SPORTSCOMP RS is designed to face different situations including intermediate wet conditions: the improved mixing processes support a high and uniform extra-fine Carbon Black content and guarantee constant peak performance even over several sessions. In combination with a draining tread pattern, the high ‘imprintability’ of the compound allows PHANTOM™ SPORTSCOMP RS to guarantee grip and drainage even on wet asphalt.
In 2020 PHANTOM™ SPORTSCOMP RS will be available in the sizes:
FRONT 110/80 R18 (85V)
REAR 130/70 R18 (63V)
150/70 R18 (70V)
