MICHELIN EXPANDS SPORTS RANGE
T
here’s a new tyre from Michelin on
the way and Michelin has chosen
New Zealand to release its latest and
greatest tyre in the Power range.
We’ve not had our hands on a set yet, but, if the
previous tyres in the Power range are anything
to go by, then the new Power 5 should deliver for
those riders wanting sporty road grip that can
still turn their hand to the occasional track day.
Michelin motorcycle tyre importer Stephen
Croad had this to say about the new hoops,
“The latest in tyre technology has arrived –
with exclusive velvet sidewall enhancement
along with shoulder texture making the
Power 5 really stand out from the crowd!
“The Power 5 has all the MotoGP technology you
would expect from Michelin with an optimum
mix compound distribution for maximum fun
on the road with a silica compound and void
ratio for maximum safety in wet conditions.
The front is a 2CT dual compound while the
rear features the 2CT+ technology. Head to your
local dealer and check them out for yourself.
They’re in stock right now in most popular sizes,
plus check out the cool Black Carbon look.”
