The off-road tyre with on-road performance
HANDLING
On road agility
The profiles of the KAROOTM Street are directly derived from those of the TOURANCET™ 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.
GRIP
Grip on dry and wet
KAROOTM 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 coh sion 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.
TRACTION
Traction in all conditions
The tread design of the KAROOTM Street is delivered from
the disruptive layout of KAROOT™ 3 and its uniquely shaped knobs with the precise objective to provide great on-road performance, wear regularity and a high level of stability combined with a cross-coultry appeal. Extra-large central blocks create a wide and solid contact patch which ensures high speed stability on-road. When riding off-road, the V-shaped knob layout with its multiple operating edges of blocks ensure acceleration, traction and braking grip; on-road, the multi-pitch knob layout is able to reduce contact vibrations, and it contributes to maximize wear uniformity and deliver
effective mileage.
ABS INTEGRATION
Integration with electronic rider aids
KAROOT™ Street’s ensure an optimal integration with electronic rider aids such as ABS and traction control. The combination of the extra-large blocks with their V- shaped layout and the high stiffness of the tyre structure enables a high level of stability, traction and smooth rolling, providing a clean signal and information transmitted to the ABS, Traction Control and other rider electronic aids, not interfered by tread patter vibrations or deformations typically found with other knobbly tyres
