New product: Pirelli Angel GT II tyre

The acclaimed sports touring tyre now improved in all key areas

Pirelli has updated its Angel GT sports touring tyre, and claims improved mileage, handling and wet-weather grip over teh original Angel GT.

The new tread pattern is derived from the world superbike "intermediate" race tyres and is intended to optimise the effect of electronic rider aids.

Pirelli says the Angel GT II has been developed to meet the needs of three groups:

Grand tourers
These riders extensively travel on medium-to-long distances both alone or with pillion passenger and luggage.They ride sports tourers, adventure bikes and the new generation of crossover machines. They demand extended mileage, great stability when heavily loaded, enhanced comfort from dampening, and great safety and confidence, even in the wet.

Smart urbans
These riders use their machines all year long to commute and for urban mobility, with occasional short or medium length free-time trips. They ride supersport, naked/roadster bikes, sports tourers and the new generation of crossovers. They demand control and braking grip in all conditions including wet and need light handling at low speed. Sometimes they don’t disdain engage in a more dynamic and exciting ride.

Free timers
These riders use their bikes mainly for short week-end trips. They ride mainly super-sport, adventure bikes and the new generation of crossovers. They demand sporty handling, plenty of grip but with extended mileage, performance in the wet and versatility to loading conditions.

The Angel GT II is sold in 17-inch and 19-inch front wheel sizes, along with a range of 17-inch rears.
