Description
RIB is a front-wheel specific tyre distinguished by its straight, circumferential grooves that run continuously around the tyre. This design is foundational for front tyres, particularly in commercial, agricultural, and certain classic motorcycle applications, as it is engineered to maximize directional stability and steering control. The straight ribs provide a large contact patch for lateral grip, which is crucial for maneuvering, while the deep channels help resist side-slippage and efficiently drain water to reduce hydroplaning in wet conditions. Furthermore, the ribbed pattern promotes low rolling resistance and ensures uniform load distribution across the tread, which translates to enhanced fuel efficiency and a longer, more even tread life compared to lug-type patterns. This tyre is purely focused on stability and ease of steering rather than aggressive traction.
