Metzeler has provided further details about the new Roadtec 02 range that it announced at the start of this year. It presents this successor to the Metzeler Roadtec 01 as “two tyres in one, thanks to innovative DynaTread technology, which adapts the behaviour from sport touring to supersport.”
A successor to the Metzeler Roadtec 01 has arrived, and Metzeler says this tyre “introduces a new technology that allows you to benefit from the behaviour of two different tyres in a single tyre.” The new Metzeler Roadtec 02 also features a larger footprint than its predecessor and generates less road noise.
Metzeler reports that the successor to its Roadtec 01 is now in the final stages of development and testing and will arrive from January 2024. This is the Metzeler Roadtec 02, and the manufacturer claims a further raising of the “bar of sportiness” with a ‘Super Sport Touring’ tyre that offers new levels of handling and grip on wet surfaces. Metzeler also ticks the sustainability box by utilising a “high percentage” of natural origin and recycled materials.
Metzeler has launched the Roadtec Scooter, developed for all types of scooters with 10-16” wheels. Global scooter and moped markets are expected to increase, especially as pandemic lockdowns ease, and more people seek a cost-effective private alternative to public transport. The German motorcycle tyre manufacturer has chosen to extend its Roadtec brand into the scooter segment, consolidating its previous three lines for the segment. The new tyre takes inspiration from the award-winning Roadtec 01 sport touring tyre. It is designed for “adaptability and versatility,” capable of dealing with diverse weather conditions and types of asphalt in urban and suburban areas.
