HEIDENAU K60
Made in Germany the Heidenau K60
is an enduro player with
excellent terrain features.
Offering high mileage and
increased tread life, this
Heidenau is moulded from
advanced rubber compound which
ensures even tread wear. This
dual purpose tyre features
V-shaped tread pattern. This
unique design paves way for
outstanding wet grip and
excellent water evacuation
capability. The tubeless tyre
with wide contact area assures
balanced driving experience by
creating larger contact patch.
The independent tread blocks
enhance the road feel and also
ensure uniform feedback. The
solid shoulder blocks gives
superb control while cornering
and also provide good lateral
stability.

Heidenau K60 for
Adventure or Dual Sport Features blocks that are laid out
in a chevron or herringbone pattern. Similar to full knobby designs, the most
aggressive dual sport tires, like the TKC 80, typically alternates rows of tread
blocks with wide rows of open space. This allows the tire to get a very good
grip in loose soil but on pavement you typically get a rough and noisy ride
because rubber contact with the road is interrupted by the open spaces. The wide
open spaces also means there may not be much rubber in contact with the road so
traction is dicier, especially in wet conditions. If you look at the chevron
pattern of the Heidenaus you see that it is possible to have a lot of open space
between the tread blocks for routing sand, mud, and water out from underneath
the contact patch, but there is always some rubber in contact with the road as
the tire rotates. The K60 as a relatively aggressive pattern for a dual sport
tire with wide voids between the blocks of rubber for channeling loose dirt, mud
& water. Rider reports in the forums generally give the K60s high marks for off
road traction, but also very good adhesion and longevity on pavement. This is
usually a difficult combination to achieve in a single tyre design.

K60 Scout the all
terrain - Enduro tyre |
Through
changes to the tread and
carcass, the K60 Scout brings
better performance on and off
road. With the improved tread
and compound, the Scout delivers
better cornering stability and
wet weather grip on the
pavement, but like it’s
predecessor delivers off road as
well.
