Metzeler Karoo Street 140/80 69V Rear T/L

The profiles of the KAROO™ Street are directly derived from those of the TOURANCE™ NEXT, with the precise aim to increase the on-road behaviour.
It features a multi-radius profile with an increased width and overall length of the contour to increase the surface of the footprint area and hence grip and stability also when leaning.
The height of the shape has been sensibly increased to improve dampening capacity and comfort.
Both front and rear tyre profile follows the same scheme and a similar geometry to ensure a synchronised behavior of the set.

KAROO™ Street features a high silica compound with a balanced proportion of carbon-black and resins to achieve a high level of grip on road, both on dry and wet conditions.
A relevant percentage of carbon black increase knobs resistance to ‘tearing’ and premature wear when used on-road.
The right choice of polymer typology, fillers and resins combined with our exclusive and patented mixing process is the key to improve the cohesion of the different ingredients at molecular level, achieving an unmatched level of homogeneity of the polymeric matrix that maximizes its properties and characteristics, granting solid performances over time.
