TR-011z 徹底解説｜iRC公式×IASライダーが語る“扱いやすさの基準”となるトライアルタイヤ

Mr. Takehiko Nakano of iRC TIRE's Global Sales Department and IAS class rider Seiya Takei discuss the performance and development background of the TR-011z. The TR-011z is a "versatile model" that inherits the lineage of the TR-011 trial tire, which was born more than 30 years ago, while continuing to evolve to suit the modern trial scene. While trials in those days mainly consisted of dirt and sand sections, rock and artificial sections are now the mainstream in the All Japan Championships. To adapt to this change, the Z model features a side shape changed from a straight to a rounded shape, achieving improved shock absorption and reduced tire collapse. Its flexible structure provides: Natural grip even without opening the throttle wide Easy to handle even at low speeds Absorbs shocks and compensates for rider mistakes These characteristics make it a tire that a wide range of riders, from beginners to International B class, can use with confidence. In Seiya Takei's review, he realistically describes the "ease of riding" of the Z, highlighting: Ease of handling due to its softness Stability at low speeds Freedom in choosing lines While the PLUS is a "rigid model for experts," the Z is a basic model that can be said to be "the right choice to start with." It's recommended for those just starting out in trials, those who enjoy fun rides, and international B-class riders who prioritize ease of handling. ▼Product information here: https://ircmoto.jp/product-list/trial...
