Product description & features
The Michelin Road 5 is a motorcycle tyre, designed to deliver confidence in wet and dry conditions.
Michelin have developed the Road 5 tyres - using their cutting edge 2CT and 2CT+ technologies, along with specially blended tread compounds - to provide riders with a strong wet and dry grip performance.
Even with 50% worn tread*, the Michelin Road 5 tyre is capable of stopping as fast at a brand new Pilot 4 tyre.
*According to internal studies at Ladoux, the Michelin centre of excellence, under the supervision of an independent witness.
What are summer tyres?
Summer tyres are specifically designed for warm weather conditions, particularly during the summer season. This type of tyre performs best when in seasons with warmer temperatures - above 7°C.
How does a summer tyre perform better in summer?
The technologies and tread patterns used in a summer tyre mean the tyres have high-quality features that are of benefit to driving in warm conditions. They typically use a softer rubber compound – designed for good grip and traction when driving on dry and wet roads.
Can you use summer tyres in winter?
Whilst summer tyres still offer adequate performances in wet and cooler conditions, it is recommended that you change. The tread design and technologies that are featured in summer tyres can harden in colder temperatures, resulting in reduced flexibility and decreased traction on snow and ice.
