ROADTEC 01 [120/70 ZR 17 M/C (58W) TL] Tire

ROADTEC 01 (RoadTECZero One) opens up a new dimension to the Sports touringRadialSegment.
ROADTEC 01RoadTECFamily is the latest revolutionary child of the RoadTEC Family and is the most suitable tire for not only Winding and Touring but also for RoadYouth such as commuting to work and school..

[Main Features]
Improved Grip under all environmental conditions, such as dry, wet, and low-moisture surfaces.
By adopting new Tread pattern and new Compound, we can make Z8M/O more secure and confident in riding..
Improved durability and sustained performance.
New Profile (shorter and wider ground surface than Z8) and Compound for improved durability.
In addition, the new tread pattern has increased its performance and durability..
Further improvement of Handling accuracy and riding comfort.
Metzler's unique belt tension adjustment for increased stability and comfort.
Accurate grasping of road conditions in a wide range of vehicle and environmental conditions and excellent and accurate handling in all speed ranges.

Technical Data
Improved Grip under all environmental conditions [dry, wet, low-moisture surfaces, etc.]
ROADTEC01's Large Charm is to show the Grip in various situations (quality of the road surface, weather, temperature)..
Tests in 2015 proved that the Grip performance of the ROADTEC Z8 INTERACT was exceeded in every situation!.
Improved Grip performance allows you to feel more stable when banking, breaking, and accelerating on all types of surfaces..
ROADTEC 01 provides the rider with the top level of safety and comfort in all road conditions, whether it is used for high speed Winding, long distance touring with a passenger or luggage, commuting or courier business. We offer it..
Touring, commuting, etc.. Recommended for all riders who have the opportunity to ride on public roads..

ROADTEC 01 adopted the characteristic "transversal groove" (one step more advanced than Sipe) as a result of testing Tread pattern Design..
As a result, the mechanical grip performance of the PatternAngle can be achieved even in the coldest conditions of winter, even when touring long distances in mid-summer on heavyweight motorcycles..
The design of the front tire has a large proportion of horizontal grooves and differs greatly from the longitudinal grooves of the ROADTEC Z8 INTERACT..
These lateral grooves act to grip the road surface under high loads and provide high grip performance, especially when breaking on low-mud roads.. At the same time, it ensures high drainage..

ROADTEC 01 adopts a more flexible Carcass and a new Profile to make the Tire more deformable and to improve grip and shock absorption..
You will understand that ROADTEC 01 is a product that combines the flexibility of the Tread with the flexibility of the Rim..
In addition, more functional grooves are placed on the ground surface by shortening and widening the shape of the ground contact surface compared to ROADTEC Z8 INTERACT to enhance mechanical grip and drainage..


The 70% Silica compound Compound used in 30% of the Rear tire center section has a synergistic effect of the new ground surface shape and achieves very high wear resistance, road adhesion and Grip..

The front tire is made of 100% Silica Compound, which in combination with the new tread pattern provides improved stability especially in wet and cold temperatures..

[Improved durability and sustained performance]
The mileage of ROADTEC 01 has been improved compared with ROADTEC Z8 INTERACT by changing the profile, compound and internal structure..
On the rear tire, a larger ground surface and InteractTechnology provide three advantages.
Sliding always occurs on the Tread rubber surface, which leads to wear of the Tire..
How much sliding occurs depends on the length of the longitudinal contact surface of the tread rubber..
ROADTEC 01's short tread surface shape suppresses the slide of tread rubber and increases the mileage..
In addition to the improved dynamic grip, especially on low-moisture surfaces, the grip has been improved..
In addition, the new Compound is made with Metzler's unique mixing technology, which allows the materials to be mixed more evenly and with a longer lasting performance..

[Further improvements in Handling accuracy and Riding comfort]
The METZELER ROADTEC 01 provides riding stability and comfort for NAKED and sports touring motorcycles.
Metzler's Interact Technology and 0XL-DEGREESteel belt technology reduce unwanted movements and vibrations of the tire while driving..
Rider to perform any action (Breaking, Axel, weight transfer on Seat, etc.). ) will be able to respond accurately to all kinds of road conditions (puddles, gaps, dust, etc.).
The Peak of the Belt tension is placed at the mid-bank angle to increase the accuracy of the corner ring and prevent the front tire from being disrupted during banking..
Weakening the tension from the Shoulder to the Edge to make it easier to deform the tire and improve grip and road holding..
The tension of the Steel belt in the center section is weaker than in the middle section of the Shoulder.
The synergistic effect of the Tread design and density increases the impact absorption..
Also, it has an appropriate tread shape and optimal ground plane shape..

[Heavy weightMotorcycleVERSION(HWM)]
HWM (Heavy Weight Motorcycles) VERSION is a size line up for heavy duty vehicles and highway heavy touring applications so that you can enjoy the performance of ROADTEC 01 on various motorcycles..
The front tire has the same number of carcasses, but uses stronger carcasses to increase the side wall rigidity and stability.. Rear tire has Carcass on the rear tire Quantity:1pc. By adding two carcasses, the stability of heavy vehicles is further enhanced..
