Based on their highly acclaimed Battlecross range of motocross tyres, Bridgestone’s new Battlecross E50 is ready to take on the big names in the enduro tyre market!
Although the Bridgestone Gritty remains in the range as a popular option for trail riders, the new E50 is the option you want to be looking at if you’re serious about enduro competition.
Technology has been taken from their championship winning motocross rubber, and adapted for the enduro market – including their innovative Castle Block Technology, which makes for more consistent performance over changing terrain. A re-worked tread pattern also boosts cornering grip and traction, while the dual compound construction with a softer rubber on the sidewall makes for easier fitting.
Long time Bridgestone partner Mick Extance recently hosted a number of journalists at his off-road centre in Mid Wales for a UK press launch.
One of those in attendance was esteemed motorcycle journalist Chris Moss, who recently posted a video from the launch on his new YouTube channel.
Chris not only got the chance to take the tyre for a spin, but also chat to Bridgestone’s Gary Hartshorne about the new rubber:
