The Extramaxx tyre is emerging as one of the popular tyre options among brands and consumers alike. These tyres are known for giving bike riders a smooth ride in tough terrains. The Extramaxx is produced using the Aramid fibre which is the same fibre currently being used in bulletproof vests. The fibre aids the tyres in control while reducing the changes of a puncture. Its dual compound composition reduces the rolling resistance while increasing stability and tyre life. The ‘Carcass Breaker’ structure of Extramaxx is claimed by the manufacturer to be two times stronger than any ordinary tyre. The rear tyre side compound offers better traction and control during corners for Honda Hornet 2.0. The superwide and flatter tyre profile provides a larger contact patch, better grip, and handling at high speeds.
