? Revolutionary front tyre technology, for transparent feedback during braking for corners

? High lateral grip from the Black Chili compound makes extreme g-forces possible at maximum lean angles

? Unique rear tyre design gives maximum contact patch for better traction during acceleration

? Continuous Compound Technology ensures high mileage, for endurance racing or track days


Continuous Compound-Technologie:
Makes it possible to use an homogeneous grip grading with a single compound thanks to a temperature controlled curing of the tyre during the production process

Shoulder area, flexible = Grip
Zenith area, wear resistant = Mileage
Continuous transition

i buy slicks from a racer who does use them only for a few trainingsessions.
them they are cheap to come by
