At the recent Intermot bike show Bridgestone re- leased a new motorcycle tyre made for the adventure market. The Adventurecross AX41 is an updated off-road trail tyre that has been designed to respond to the adven- ture riders’ requirements. Off-road traction has been upgraded and the grip increased through state-of-the- art block design and positioning, while the use of a high-strength compound ensures durability and a long lifespan. With on and off-road performance optimised, the Battlax Adventurecross AX41 gives riders the fearless- ness to venture into new areas, follow new paths and enjoy every moment. C s Thanks to the unique Bridgestone Anti-irregular Wear (A-IW) technology, the studs keep their sharp edges much longer and that's an important and distinguishing advantage. Bridgestone say the Adventurecross AX41 is a major step up from the previous A41 and will offer the adventure rider everything they need in a tyre. The AX41 currently comes in the following sizes: Front – Rear - 100/90 – 19 57Q TL 130/80 B 17 65Q TL 110/80 B 19 59Q TL 140/80 B 17 67Q TL 120/70 B 19 60Q TL 150/70 B 17 69Q TL 90/90 – 21 54Q TL 170/60 B 17 72Q TL 150/70 B 18 70Q TL U T TRAVERSE 113
