Heavy-Duty Harley Serrated Motorcycle Tire 3.50-10 4.50-18 Support Nylon Cord Design
Traction
Traction is the ability of the tire to grip the road surface and
transfer the power from the engine to the ground. The tread pattern
of the tire plays a crucial role in providing traction. The grooves
and channels in the tread help to channel water away from the tire,
reducing the risk of hydroplaning on wet roads. The blocks and
sipes on the tread also provide grip on different surfaces, such as
asphalt, concrete, and gravel.
The rubber compound of the tire also affects its traction. Soft rubber compounds provide better grip but wear out faster, while hard rubber compounds are more durable but may have less traction. The choice of rubber compound depends on the intended use of the tire and the riding conditions.
Stability
Stability is the ability of the tire to maintain its shape and
position on the road. The sidewall of the tire provides structural
support and helps to keep the tire stable. The bead also plays a
role in stability by providing a secure fit between the tire and
the rim.
The width and profile of the tire also affect its stability. Wider tires provide more stability and better handling, but they also have more rolling resistance and may affect fuel efficiency. The profile of the tire, which is the ratio of the height to the width, also affects its stability. Low-profile tires are more sporty and provide better handling, but they may be less comfortable and more prone to damage.
Shock Absorption
Scooter tires are designed to absorb shocks and vibrations from the
road, providing a comfortable ride for the rider. The flexibility
of the rubber compound and the sidewall helps to absorb shocks and
reduce the impact on the rider. Some tires may also have additional
features, such as air chambers or gel inserts, to further enhance
their shock absorption capabilities.
