Metzeler ME 888 Marathon Ultra

Metzeler ME 888 Marathon Ultra product description & features

• Abrasion-resistant polymers for ultra mileage
• ME880-derived tread and silica compound
• Flat, wide profile for consistent performance

Metzeler have developed the ME 888 Marathon Ultra - the 'Triple 8' - as an ultra-high-mileage tyre for cruiser, touring and custom bikes, coupling long life with Metzeler's performance and handling. Developed in Germany, it comes in a very wide range of sizes, including a whitewall option for a vintage look.

ME 888 Marathon Ultra tyres are available in a wide range of front and rear fitments for cruiser, touring and custom motorcycles, with reinforced and whitewall options, in tubeless construction.

Ultra Mileage

A flat, wide structure geometry conveys and dissipates stress toward the sidewall, reducing fatigue and wear. While 'compound bridges' interrupting the transverse grooves create a stiffer and more solid tread. Abrasion-resistant compound polymers further boost mileage for long, safe travelling.

Wet Grip

A tread pattern evolved from the ME880 is engineered for a high level of water evacuation while improving wear uniformity across the tread. The silica content in the compound adds chemical grip on wet surfaces. 

Stability and Handling

The flat, wide profile delivers consistent performance throughout the tyre's life, with great stability and smooth handling at both high and low speeds.
