Expanding on the highly acclaimed MICHELIN Commander II tire, the newest addition to the cruiser portfolio is designed to deliver exceptional wet grip and extraordinary durability. The MICHELIN Commander III Touring tire is designed to go the distance for Baggers with excellent wet grip and longevity that is designed to exceed its predecessor with new tread compounds. The MICHELIN Commander III Cruiser tire is engineered to deliver outstanding wet grip without compromising longevity compared to its predecessor. The distinctive tread patterns and patented velvet sidewall designs of the new line enhance the styling of all V-Twin motorcycles.

Avon Tyres has launched its new motorcycle tyre the Cobra Chrome AV91 / AV92 cruising tourer tyre range, now with improved longevity and more fitment options than ever. 

It is a replacement for the popular Cobra range which has a well-established reputation in the custom and cruiser segments. 

With an advanced construction design, the Cobra Chrome delivers improved stability and durability in all conditions for precise feel and tyre feedback. Avon’s latest pattern produces over a 5 percent larger footprint to maximise grip and uses the latest compound technology to improve tread life by 10 percent compared with its predecessor. The use of enhanced compounds means that the Cobra Chrome offers excellent wet braking and handling properties. 

ContiTour is the brand new tyre for riders of big custom bikes, cruisers and choppers. Again, the tread pattern offers efficient drainage properties for excellent grip on wet roads.

On the rear tyre, a central band with no tread boosts mileage returns and limits tread movement for increased stability under acceleration.

A brand new compound formula has been designed and tested by our experienced team to deliver excellent mileage and consistent performance throughout the life of the tyre.

First up and making its world debut is the new Battlecruise H50 custom tyre – specially developed to give you maximum pleasure on your American V-Twin. Bridgestone deployed its top two-wheel tyre technologies to develop H50, targeting easy handling, top grip on wet and dry, and long wear life.
