Dunlop announces launch of new Sportmax Qualifier HR bike tyre

Designed as a sports tyre for riders of lightweight bikes demanding race-worthy performance at an affordable price, the new H speed-rated (up to 130mph) series of Dunlop Sportmax Qualifier HR tyres. Dunlop says it has used “compound technology derived from the GP Racer D211” in the design of the tyre, features that it says make it “the first tyre to bring race compound features to the keen sports rider in this sector of the market”. The tyre is available in sizes for 125cc to 400cc bikes and supermotos up to 690cc.

“We’ve long wanted to provide a tyre specifically for the riders who are taking their lightweight sports bikes and supermotos on the track at weekends, says Sharon Antonaros, marketing director for Dunlop Europe, “They need one set of well priced tyres that can offer them grip and safety on the road but go on to deliver high performance on the race track.”
