The Metzeler Roadtec 02 rear motorcycle tire is designed for riders seeking confident handling, comfort, and dependable performance across a broad range of temperatures and asphalt conditions. This sport-touring tire uses a responsive tread pattern that supports smooth transitions from upright riding to full lean, helping provide a stable, predictable feel in everyday riding and spirited cornering. The 160/60ZR17 size and (69W) service designation make it suitable for motorcycles specified for this rear-tire application.
Metzeler incorporates a groove-reduced tread design to minimize interruptions across the contact surface. This construction helps reduce vibration and road noise while promoting a more uniform transition as the motorcycle leans. The pattern also adapts to riding style, increasing tread compactness and reactivity as speed and cornering demands rise. These characteristics contribute to improved upright stability, responsive handling, and added grip at full lean.
Full-silica compounds support chemical adhesion on wet roads, while the tread pattern promotes efficient water evacuation and contact-patch mobility. The result is a balanced combination of wet-weather confidence, warm-up performance, comfort, and grip. Whether used for commuting, touring, or higher-performance road riding, the Roadtec 02 is engineered to deliver a reassuring safety feel when leaning and consistent behavior through changing road conditions.
