Sportmax D208 RR review

New directional tread patterns front and rear based on race and championship winning D208F GP and D208 GP "A".

New patterns have optimised Land/Sea ratios, increasing towards the shoulder to increase traction at high lean angles.

"Cosecant Curve" tread layout aligns grooves with the forces acting in the contact patch to improve block stiffness reduce irregular wear and improve cornering stability.

Front and rear patterns rotate in opposite directions to align grooves with braking and accelerating forces respectively, further reducing irregular wear and improving stability.

The front tyre uses a modified "GP Type" profile for good steering response, giving easy, accurate, corner entry characteristics with reduced steering effort.

Mid corner feedback and agility are also improved resulting in greater rider confidence.

The rear tyre uses a modified "Single Radius Concept" profile reducing changes to steering geometry and contact area resulting in improved mid corner agility and lateral trac
