Technology

• 0° Steel Radial Belt: Single ply of steel cords wrapped at 0° for reduced weight, excellent high-speed stability, uniform heat distribution, and more consistent wear.
• MAW (Metzeler Advanced Winding): Patented system for optimum cord spacing in the 0° steel belt — wider in the crown for elasticity, stiffer at mid-lean for fast cornering, and wider at the shoulder for safe feedback at full lean.
• Compound Bridges: Stability, even wear, solid tread.
• Longitudinal Grooves: Even wear and water evacuation.
• Crossing Grooves: Even wear and water evacuation.
