CRUISETEC 200/55 R 17 M/C 78V Rear Radial Tubeless Type

【Metzeler 3577900 CRUISETEC 200/55 R 17 M/C 78V Rear Radial Tubeless Type Motorcycle Tire On-Road Cruiser Heavy Cruiser Custom CRUISETEC】
【A cruiser tire that makes you look forward to cornering!】

・The ultimate performance tire for cruisers and heavy-duty vehicles!
【Enjoy Performance Cruising】

・Exceptional handling, from initiating a line to maintaining it exactly as intended
The CRUISETEC strongly supports the motorcycle's handling performance with an optimized carcass and profile. It provides excellent comfort and performance even when used on large, heavy cruisers.
・Comfortable and communicative on various road conditions, including wet surfaces
The dual-compound rear tire incorporates a high silica content, supporting rapid tire warm-up. The grip performance from the tire profile due to the tread pattern and the chemical (compound) grip performance provide comfortable operation even on wet asphalt. A new compound formulation, which adjusts the amounts of liquid polymers and plasticizers—substances that maintain flexibility—has achieved revolutionary contact patch and comfort performance.
・Enjoy excellent cornering grip
The rear tire, with its innovative compound appropriately laid out, enhances tire performance and can handle the cornering demands of today's high-torque large motorcycles.
【Consistent Performance】

・Performance that lasts throughout the tire's life
The combination of a solid tread pattern and a dual compound on the rear averages wear progression and reduces the tendency for the tire to wear flat and square. It maintains a uniform curve shape and comfortable cornering performance. By uniforming the tire's contour and rounded shape, it maintains comfortable handling whether riding solo, tandem, or with heavy luggage. The CRUISETEC achieves a tire life equivalent to tires standard on V-twin models due to its dual compound, but it can wear out while maintaining a high level of performance, including cornering performance, until the end of its lifespan.
【Smooth and Comfortable Riding】

・Stable line tracing
The high-grip side compound adopted for the dual compound was developed to enhance reliability and stability at the limit, while also achieving neutral and comfortable handling performance at slower speeds.
・Solid front-end feel
As a tire structure, the combination of a stiffer cord and thicker rubber, with adjusted strength, resulted in tire rigidity that is both highly flexible and firmly grips the road. This achieved both damping performance from the tire itself and secured a contact patch. This performance is particularly effective when driving on wet or rough roads.
【Safety Born from Relaxed Driving】

・Optimal response on wet roads
The combination of silica compound, carcass, and tread pattern provides confidence to the rider even on wet roads.
By optimizing the tire's contact patch, the increased performance margin allows for versatile response to various ABS operations, from the latest models. This benefit is not limited to the latest models but can also be obtained by installing it on models of various years.
