This high-performance rear tire delivers superior stability, traction, and confidence across diverse terrains, making it the ideal choice for serious riders.

Description

This advanced Continental TKC 80² rear tire is meticulously designed to optimize your riding experience, whether you're navigating paved highways or tackling challenging trails. Its innovative carcass construction provides optimized damping, ensuring stable and comfortable handling even at high speeds, a critical benefit for dual sport motorcycles. Riders will immediately notice significantly improved stability and control, attributed to a new block design that creates a larger contact patch and a substantial 17% increase in the critical wear zone's footprint. This not only enhances high-speed stability but also contributes to a better wear pattern and extended tire life.

Off-road enthusiasts will appreciate the strong traction and impressive mileage, stemming from a newly developed tread design. This design incorporates more mechanical grip through added biting edges, strategically staggered shoulder blocks, and optimized block geometry, allowing your 130/80-17 tubeless tire to dig in confidently on loose surfaces like mud, street, trail, and even snow. Safety in adverse conditions is paramount, which is why the TKC 80² features enhanced wet grip. A new compound combined with Continental's RainGrip technology ensures greater confidence and safety when riding in rainy conditions. With a 65R load/speed index, this tire is built to perform under demanding conditions, offering a blend of durability, grip, and control that truly elevates your adventure riding.
