Bridgestone launches Battlax Adventure Trail motorcycle tire

Zaventem , Belgium – Bridgestone announced the launch of its latest on-road adventure tire for the motorcycle market, the Bridgestone Battlax Adventure Trail AT41. The rugged, off-road looking tire provides great dry performance and incredible traction, grip and braking in the wet to ensure a safe and comfortable journey in all weather conditions.

The Bridgestone Battlax Adventure Trail AT41’s new off-road looking pattern has an optimized groove design to improve water drainage and contribute to the tire’s impressive wet weather performance, thanks to increased average groove volumes and a more consistent groove ratio in the contact areas. The new block shape of the tire reduces partial wear on its shoulder, while an optimal belt construction with the new pattern gives great stability. The Bridgestone Battlax Adventure Trail AT41’s touring compound – with 3LC used on the rear – also enables its excellent performance in the wet, dry and in terms of the tire’s mileage.

Bridgestone’s latest on-road adventure tire will be available from February 2022 in nine sizes (4 front and 5 rear), all with M+S marking. With this line-up, the Battlax Adventure Trail AT41 covers most of the motorcycles in the Adventure segment.

“The Battlax Adventure Trail AT41 is an on-road tire that completes the adventure look,” said Nico Thuy, Head of Motorcycle at Bridgestone EMIA. “The adventure bike segment is the largest growing segment in motorcycle sales over the past several years, and our latest road tire in this market is designed to bring comfort and safety – in both the dry and wet weather conditions – to riders with an adventurous spirit.”
