The Metzeler KAROO EXTREME is a specialized off-road motorcycle tire designed for extreme rally racing and demanding adventure riding conditions. This all-terrain tire features an aggressive knob design with three large blocks per pitch on the rear tire that work like claws to penetrate loose terrain and provide maximum traction in sand, dirt, and rocky surfaces. The tire incorporates a high-tech compound combining natural rubber for mechanical resistance with synthetic rubber for enhanced wear resistance and knob tear prevention, plus a high percentage of carbon black that increases stress resistance even at high temperatures typical of desert racing. The multi-ply carcass construction uses high-module, low-shrinkage fiber that provides excellent contact feeling, braking stability, and puncture resistance even at low pressures. The KAROO EXTREME is engineered specifically for heavy, powerful motorcycles used in long rally stages at high speeds across constantly changing terrain conditions. Available in various sizes for both 17-18 inch rear wheels and 19-21 inch front wheels, this tire is recommended for dual-sport and adventure motorcycles where extreme off-road capability is prioritized over on-road comfort.
