Dunlop product update
Dunlop has strengthened its product offering for 2011, in both on and off road sectors, with a new member of the Sportmax Qualifier family, and additional sizes in the Geomax motocross range.
Especially developed for 125cc to 400cc sports machines and Supermoto street bikes, Qualifier is now available in HR rating, with three front and two rear sizes as required by that market sector.
The new Qualifier HR utilises compounds derived from the GP Racer D211, that gives very high grip levels on these lightweight bikes, but without the heavy wear rate which might otherwise be expected. Fast handling response and superb stability are also delivered by Qualifier HR.
Dunlop Geomax (featuring the manufacturer's patented Geomax Reinforced Pattern technology, which increases drive traction, improves resistance to tread block tearing, and enhances tyre wear) has more to offer with the addition of "adult" tyre sizes in Geomax MX-31, now with one extra front and four additional rear options, whilst Geomax MX-51 has a 2.50-12 and 90/100-21 front added to the range, and a new rear, in 120/80-19. Dunlop Geomax MX-51 features their patented "chiselled" shoulder block design, for increased corner bite.
Geomax MX-71 (for intermediate to hard terrain) incorporates all the skills of MX-31 and MX-51, whilst the tread design has more rubber in the critical shoulder areas, boosting corner grip and drive traction.
New to MX-71 now are 120/80-19 rear and 90/100-21 front.
