BENEFITS
FROM SUPERSPORT TO HYPERSPORT
Double up your ride
SPORTEC™ 01 brings Dynatread™ patented technology - the dynamic tread pattern, first introduced with ROADTEC™ 02 - into the supersport world. At high pace, during braking or acceleration, the grooves dynamically compress, increasing the contact patch and lateral grip even at high lean angles allowing SPORTEC™ 01 to evolve from a supersport into a hypersport tyre.
At low pace, the grooves under the footprint grant an optimal water evacuation and proper tread mobility, that contribute to quick warm-up and contact-patch conformability, hence better comfort and grip.
GRIP THE DRY, OWN THE WET
Exceptional wet grip and soft handling, without compromise on dry grip
Tread design, innovative compounds and its layout provide SPORTEC™ 01 with great versatility, ensuring performance from cold, wet urban riding to track use.
The grooves are designed to evacuate water efficiently, improving grip and control in wet and cold environments, supported also by a shorter warm-up time delivered by the high silica compound present in both tyres.
The dual compound layout, softer on shoulders, together with Dynatread™ technology delivers high levels of grip to face the most demanding conditions, as aggressive lean angles or fierce accelerations.
HOLD THE LINE
Unified front and rear design
SPORTEC™ 01 features an identical tread pattern for both front and rear tyre, a symmetry that delivers a balanced and predictable riding experience.
The front tyre's structure is composed of two rayon plies combined with a 0° steel belt, providing superior support throughout all phases of manoeuvring. The rear tyre's structure - also composed of a 0° steel belt but on a single rayon ply - maximizes the contact patch and ensures strong support during acceleration, both in straight-line and corner exit scenarios.
These structural solutions support the latest generation of motorcycles and electronic control systems, enabling riders to fully exploit the tyre’s potential with confidence.
PREMIUM SIDEWALL DESIGN
A new tyre's look that communicates high performance
The new high-contrast sidewall layout enhances the tyre’s identity highlighting Metzeler's care for details and for delivering premium products.
The bold design reflects its sporty character, adding a distinctive look that matches its high-performance, including the “Blade”, the visual signature of Dynatread™ technology.
EXPLORE THE DETAILS
DYNATREAD™ technology intervenes at high pace, dynamically closing the grooves (in the green section) delivering excellent on-road performance:
- While braking, the grooves of the front tyre close, enhancing stability and precision
- Under acceleration, the grooves both of the front and the rear compress, maximizing grip and traction
At low pace grooves support water evacuation for an improved safety feeling
- The unified tread design shared by front and rear tyres enhance braking behavior, stability and balanced performance
- The versatile tread supports strong braking forces on the front and delivers high traction under load on the rear
It features a high silica dual compound layout (20% centre, 40% each shoulder):
- more rigid and less hysteretic in the centre (grey area) for improved stability at both low and high pace
- softer and more hysteretic on the shoulders (green area) for high grip in cornering and acceleration
Key innovation represented by the base layer: having the same high-performance compound as the shoulders, the tyre provides a more homogeneous grip profile and consistent performance under stress
It features a high silica dual compound with evenly distributed layout: 33% each across centre (grey area) and shoulders (green areas)
The hypersport-oriented dual compound delivers optimal grip across a wide range of temperatures and conditions, while its balanced distribution ensures consistent performance from upright riding to deep lean angles
Key innovation represented by the base layer (blue area): made of carbon black, it enhances braking stability and contributes to a more predictable and confident front-end feel
Both front and rear tyres share a 0° steel belt, a technological solution which ensures consistent deformation control across lean angles
The plies configuration varies across the set: two rayon plies for the front, one for the rear. This tailored rayon layering provides the necessary stiffness and flexibility to handle the demands of modern supersport riding
