Battlax Racing W01

The Bridgestone Battlax Racing W01 is a track-day and competition tire engineered for high-performance motorcycles. This tire is specifically designed for racers and demanding track enthusiasts who require maximum grip and confident handling in wet conditions.

The Battlax Racing W01 utilizes a very soft compound, signified by its UTQG treadwear rating of 1, to deliver exceptional grip on the track. Its tread pattern is derived directly from MotoGP wet racing tires, optimizing water drainage and increasing the contact patch for superior grip in wet conditions. The optimized pattern rigidity in both front and rear tires contributes to excellent wet handling characteristics. Grooves are strategically placed in the same direction as water flow to efficiently channel water away from the contact patch.

Compared to other tires in its segment, the Battlax Racing W01 stands out with its focus on wet-weather performance, giving riders confidence at any lean angle even in the wettest conditions. Bridgestone testing indicates that the W01 can help achieve better average lap times and faster "best laps" compared to its predecessors. The tire's construction incorporates MotoGP technology, offering enhanced feedback and a secure feel. The newly developed compound warms up quickly, providing high confidence on wet surfaces.
