imagine you’ve just been given the chance to design your own
sports tyre. What features would it have? Race-quality grip?
Wet-road predictability? touring mileage? How about all three
features in one tyre? that’s exactly what Dunlop has achieved
in its dynamic SportSmart. multi-tread gives you high mileage and
the confidence to push your bike on wet or dry roads, while Dunlop’s
unique ntec system lets you fine-tune the SportSmart’s inflation
pressure for totally connected track day performance. for supersport
and hypersport riders,
the SportSmart is quite
simply the tyre you’d
design for yourself.
/ tour, road, track: crossover
performance tyre answers
every need
/ ntec construction acts as a
mechanical grip booster at low
inflation pressure for track day use
/ construction front and rear derived
from ultra-successful D211 GP race tyre
/ multi-tread technology front & rear in order
to combine high grip and high mileage
/ available in all popular sizes
in an independent test performed by Dekra in January 2010 on a
SuZuki GSx-R 1000 (2009) on 120/70ZR17 and 190/50ZR17 tyres
the Dunlop SportSmart achieved 20% better mileage compared to
michelin Power Pure, 30% better mileage than Pirelli Diablo Rosso
and 40% better mileage than Bridgestone Battlax Bt-016.
the most versatile tyre
we’ve tested. Our first
five-star tyre. Bike
On the road they’re
hugely confi dence
inspiring. On the track
they’re superb. i can’t
fault them. RiDE

featuring multi-tread (mt) compound technology, the highperformance
Sportmax Qualifier ii is designed with real riders’
needs in mind. the Qualifier ii supersport tyre delivers non-stop
road feedback, razor-sharp handling accuracy and a high degree
of wet road grip.
multi-tread (mt) compounds enable fast warm-up and excellent
wet and dry road grip without sacrificing tread wear, which allows
riders to get the best out of their
sports bike. carcass tension
control System (ctcS) technology
allows different areas of the tyre
casing to be designed with
different tension levels, which
control local area stiffness for
better suspension capabilities.
/ Directional tread design optimises
pressure distribution to allow
smoother performance and
reduced step wear
/ multi-tread (mt) compounds
enable a wide range of operating
temperatures for fast warm-up time
and enables excellent wet and dry
road grip without sacrificing tread wear
/ tyre profile shapes are designed
to maintain a more consistent contact
area with the road and minimise steering
geometry changes when cornering
/ Lightweight casings deliver responsive,
yet progressive handling
/ JointLess Belt (JLB) rear tyre construction
enables superb high-speed stability and
shock absorption
it’s clear Dunlop has put
itself on top of the sports
bike tyre pile. MCN
for me it’s all about
confidence and the Dunlops
were best in the wet. the
Qualifier ii was around six
seconds faster than the
nearest rival. LondonBikers.com
