Metzeler MT90 B 16 M/C 72H TL Motorbike Wheel Me 888 Marathon Ultra F

Exceptional longevity, performance Metzeler

Specifically designed to enhance longevity and performance in wet conditions

Exceptional longevity

The Metzeler ME 888 MARATHON™ ULTRA is the best partner for long, safe rides on cruisers, tourers, and their custom versions.
To achieve these goals, the designers at Metzeler have ultimately combined the specifications that determine the characteristics of the tyres: profile, structure, tread, and compound.
The shape of the structure is characterised by a flat and wide geometry that handles and dissipates the stresses generated under the contact area towards the sides, thereby reducing wear.
To improve wear uniformity, the tread's transverse grooves are discontinuous and interspersed with rubber bridges, which results in a stiffer and stronger tread that reduces the stresses transmitted to the belt and carcass.
The edges of the grooves are critical areas for wear uniformity. The angles of the grooves on the ME 888 have different inclinations to ensure the best operating angle in all positions.
The polymers in the compound resist abrasion, providing better wear resistance and increasing longevity.

Grip in wet conditions

The tread of the ME 888 MARATHON™ ULTRA is an evolution of that on the ME 880 and aims to ensure excellent water evacuation by increasing the uniformity of wear across the entire tread. Moreover, a high percentage of silica in the compound formulation ensures chemical grip on wet surfaces.
