Mitas, part of the Trelleborg Group, is adding new
sizes to its existing TERRA FORCE-R range.
Mitas TERRA FORCE-R 120/70ZR19 and 170/60ZR17
sizes are especially designed for large adventure motor-
cycles. The rear tyre (170/60ZR17) features completely
new Mitas technology, named MCTT (Multi Compound
Tread Technology), with different compounds—ad-
vanced elastomers, such as S-SBR, highly active fillers,
and silica—on the central and shoulder parts. With
MCTT, the central tread provides increased mileage, and
the shoulder tread ensures superior grip at lean angles.
This different compound distribution offers riders
optimal and safe riding experiences in all conditions,
including optimum balanced wear rate throughout the
tyre’s lifetime.
The combination of TERRA FORCE-R tread design and specially developed compounds gives riders an outstand-
ing performance, as both front and rear tyres work together, in perfect harmony.
Ksenija Bitenc, Director of Motorcycle Tyres and Tubes at Mitas, says: “With the addition of the TERRA FORCE-R
range, we can provide more road tread design for the growing segment of large adventure motorcycles.” Being
more road oriented, the new range’s tread design ensures greater riding properties on asphalt, and more confi-
dence on light, off-road terrain.
Ksenija Bitenc, concludes: “Besides the abovementioned sizes, a new 150/70R18 size will be launched in the first
quarter of 2019. With the addition of these three new sizes, the TERRA FORCE-R range will offer 11 sizes in total.”
