Metzeler Karoo Extreme Radial Rear Tire

• Multi-purpose and racing rally offroad tire with extreme traction and versatility
• The compound on the Karoo Extreme combines both natural rubber for mechanical resistance and synthetic rubber for wear and knob tearing resistance
• High percentage of carbon black compound increases resistance to stress, even at high temperature
• The structure of the Karoo Extreme implements a high module low shrinkage fiber in a multi-ply carcass scheme that provide contact feeling, braking stability and maximum softness to absorb forces during jumps or obstacles surmounting
• Very light structure  promotes high speed stability and agile handling
• When used on hard terrains the compound prevents the tire from overheating, reducing the risk to blow up and blistering during the race
• Overall flexibility of the structure provides excellent puncture resistance, even with low pressure
• The design and layout of the knobs and the overall structure provides extreme traction on the most difficult terrains of the most demanding offroad rallies
• The vertical line of knobs works as a claw to penetrate the ground and generate traction
• The blocks surface is wide and provides a broad contact patch that ensures grip on hard terrain
• The rear tire focuses on enabling the traction and for this reason the tread design is composed by 3 big blocks on each pitch, that provides traction on loose terrains thanks to their height and the space between them
• The vertical wall of this line of knobs works as a claw that penetrates the ground and generates massive traction
• The wide block surface provides a wide contact patch that ensure grip on hard terrain
• The reinforced structures then reduce the spinning effect and engage the compound at lower temperature, granting extreme traction in all terrain and conditions, with every temperature and at all speeds
• The structure is particularly developed for extreme offroad competition in combination with tubes and mousses and to be used in rallies with heavy and powerful motorcycles, ridden at high speed for long stages, often during hot season and on constantly changing terrain conditions
• Speed rated s for speeds up to 112 mph
• This motorcycle tire is tubeless
