The Michelin Power Pure is the latest advancement of the widely known Pilot Power tire series. The introduction of Michelin Power Pure in the first quarter of 2010 gained tremendous amount of positive commentaries and satisfied consumers. This is highly attributed to the French manufacturer’s integration of the improved 2CT, or more commonly known as the Two Compound Technology. The improvement of the 2CT in the Michelin Power Pure provided riders with the optimum functionality of the tire in terms of the grip, comfort, noise, responsive handling, and cornering stability among other important features.
The 2CT and LLT
“To manufacture the lightest two-compound sport premium tire ever conceived.” Such statement was the sole purpose of the development of the Michelin Power Pure tire. The engineers in Michelin were certain in achieving such goal. This success was incorporated with the company’s LLT, or otherwise known as the Light Tire Technology. This technology is one of the most effective formulas in the advancement of Michelin Power Pure Motorcycle tire. With such advancement, riders are able to improved race track performances and as well as excellent touring experiences.
The combination of the LLT and 2CT resulted in the lightest ever known dual compound tire. The Michelin Power Pure is improved with the first ever integration of aramid fibers. The combination of the two technologies resulted in the application of a harder compound integrated in the center and a softer compound along the shoulders of the tire. Engineers were then able to reduce the total weight mass of the Michelin Power Pure by 2 lbs. This reduction significantly reduces the overall combined weight of the front tire and the rear tire once the Michelin Power Pure is installed in both places. This literally translates to more efficiency and functionality in every aspect of a tire performance. Simply put, this is a better way around in experiencing a perfect and hassle-free touring performance whether you’re a track rider or simply just a motorcycle aficionado.
