Bridgestone launches Battlax Sport Touring T30 motorcycle tyre

Bridgestone has unveiled its new Battlax Sport Touring T30 Motorcycle tyre, with a European launch scheduled for March 31 next year.

The Sport Touting T30 is the latest tyre to join the Battlax line-up with technology based on Bridgestone’s development of MotoGP™ racing tyres.

The development concept of the new T30 is to give riders the real pleasure of touring, with improved handling and dry grip compared to the predecessor BT023 tyre. To achieve this, Bridgestone has developed a new compound, construction and tread pattern, all optimized for better rigidity and contact patch grip.

The T30 is the first Battlax tyre in the touring segment named “T”. Bridgestone now uses T for “Touring”, S for “Sport” and R for “Race” to more clearly position its extensive range of Battlax  tyres.

Bridgestone designed the new T30 compound the way it does for MotoGP™ racing tyres: measuring the range of temperature in which the tyre should operate, and then developing the optimum compound to match the working range. This led to the development of RC polymers (MC tyre use), a compound that builds on the company’s exclusive “NanoPro-Tech” technology. This revolutionary technology delivers improved grip and performance in actual use temperature applications.
