Ceat has launched a new premium tyre at the recently concluded India Bike Week 2017, called the Zoom Rad X1. The tyre was unveiled by motorcycle racing legend Freddie Spencer and will cater to 200-400cc sports bikes, the likes of the KTM Duke and RC twins, Bajaj’s Dominar 400 and Yamaha’s YZF R15.
Available in 130/70 R17, 110/70 R17 and 150/60 R17 sizes, the Zoom Rad X1 tyre launches with an ‘H’ speed rating, which means that they are safely capable of sustaining speeds of up to 210kph.
The Indian tyre manufacturer was prompted to introduce this new tyre due to the growing demand from younger audiences, high net worth individuals (HNIs) and the recent significant rise of this segment of motorcycles.
