If you’re the type of rider who spends most of your time on the tarmac but doesn’t mind a cheeky detour through the dirt, Reise Moto has just dropped something that might be right up your street. The brand has officially launched its new tourRad adventure touring tyre range in India, specifically designed for those long-distance hauls where reliability is key.
Designed for the 80:20 Lifestyle
Reise has pitched the tourRad tyres as an 80:20 road-biased option. In plain English, that means they are built primarily for smooth road touring but have enough “teeth” to handle occasional off-road trails without breaking a sweat.
The tourRad price range is quite competitive, starting from Rs. 3,099 and climbing up to Rs. 6,999, depending on which size or construction you need for your rig.
The Techy Bit: Tread and Construction
So, what makes these tyres tick? Reise has gone with a block-pattern tread featuring wider grooves. This isn’t just for looks; it’s designed to dig in for better traction on loose surfaces and help clear water quickly when the weather turns sour.
- Stability: Large cross-over centre blocks help the bike stay planted in a straight line.
- Cornering: Wider lateral blocks give you that extra bit of confidence when you’re leaning into a bend.
- Contact Patch: Thanks to a dual radii profile, the tyre maintains a consistent “footprint” whether you’re riding bolt upright on a motorway or tipping it into a hairpin.
Under the surface, the construction is equally robust. The rear tyres are radial units, while the front tyres feature a reinforced structure. They’ve even packed in a zero-degree steel belt for high-speed stability and a stiff carcass to keep the handling sharp. Plus, the high silica content in the compound ensures you get decent grip in both wet and dry conditions, along with more even wear over those long miles.
Available Sizes for Adventure Bikes
The Reise tourRad adventure touring tyres come in a healthy variety of sizes to fit most popular adventure and touring motorcycles currently on the market:
- Front Sizes: 100/90-19, 90/90-21, and 110/70-17
- Rear Sizes: 130/80R17, 140/80R17, 150/60R17, and 150/70R17
Whether you’re rocking a lightweight tourer or a full-sized ADV, there’s a good chance the tourRad range has a fitment for you. It looks like Reise is serious about giving touring enthusiasts a solid, budget-friendly alternative for their next big trip.
