The Battlax BT-002 series is a homologated full-race tyre range for supersport events and track days. Designed for high-powered machines of 600 cc capacity and above, the BT-002 combines race-winning performance with riderfriendly handling characteristics. Compared with the existing BT-001Pro series, the new tyres offer increased grip and traction, together with improved braking ability
Dealers are already stocking the BT-002 in sizes 120/70R17M/C, 180/55R17M/C and 190/55R17M/C. All these sizes are available in three different compounds: soft, medium and hard. The rider will thus be able to adapt the tyre to the track conditions and ambient temperatures. By integrating the best of race-bred technologies into the BT-002, Bridgestone has produced a tyre series that will satisfy the most demanding competitors, yet enable riders of all abilities to achieve consistent improvements in their lap times. Newly developed front and rear tread patterns, together with MSB and a new compound for the rear, enhance straight-line drive stability. Optimal distribution of grooves in the patterns aids middle to large camber grip.
