DESCRIPTION

The best rear tyre for Senior Production racers, and other Post Classic Superbike 1 & Superstock machines using 18" wheels, which includes a lot of early 80's superbikes. 

All the benefits of the AM23 range with deep cutting allows for good block movement to reduce the amount of time to get the tyre to its optimum temperature, and also to cut through water, should it be raining, this is a great tyre for all weathers. This is a crossply tyre meaning the construction is very soft, which is mostly advantageous. 

The two compounds available are:

Soft - A24 compound. Highly useable tyre for almost any condition or temperature. Low glassy temperature of the compound means that this tyre is ready to go after 1 lap without warmers, and will continue to work from 0 degrees celcius up to 30 degrees celcius with very long life. Lots of feel can be achieved with this tyre, it slides very controllably. It is our compound of choice on the 500cc machines (smaller AM23's) in the UK. Great in wet conditions also, due to deep tread pattern. But, will ultimately overheat on the big bikes. Very limited availability.

Medium - A30 compound. A bit of a 'misnomer' really because this is closer to 'soft' than medium! The medium compound is harder to get temperature into, but once up to temperature is a great tyre, long life, lots of feel and good feedback. Unfortunately, we have now run out of these A30 compound tyres. As an alternative, we suggest  https://www.tga.co.uk/products/avon-am23-135-70-r18/ slightly narrower, but being a radial will give more traction & durability though with stiffer sidewalls (and a lot cheaper!!) Another alternative is the Conti, though this is quite hard. See:  https://www.tga.co.uk/products/conti-roadattack3cr-15065zr18-rear/

Recommended rim width: 3.5" - 4.5"
