ITP HOLESHOT SX
The Holeshot SX has been carefully
designed and painstakingly developed to dominate on hard-packed
motocross tracks. Key to this process was the extensive input of several
National-caliber race teams and riders, who specifically requested a
tire that could excel on this type of MX course. The drier, slicker and
faster the track surface—a very common condition in today’s racing
environment—the greater an advantage the Holeshot SX rider will enjoy.
The new Holeshot SX is being offered in both front and rear
configurations, each with its own unique characteristics yet built to
perfectly complement each other as a package.
The 18x10-8 rear Holeshot SX’s advantages
start with a specially reinforced carcass that minimizes stretching
while maintaining a flat profile, thus providing consistent feel and
performance without a sacrifice in ride comfort. A new “RR” tread
compound has been formulated, and after extensive testing has proven to
provide unmatched hard pack performance as well as surprisingly long
tire life (getting more motos out of a set of tires was a primary goal).
The SX tread pattern uses more tightly spaced knobs to increase the tire
contact patch, while the redesigned knobs themselves have been laterally
sipped (thinly cut) to yield twice the number of biting edges than any
Holeshot tire that’s come before. Finally, the shoulder knobs utilize a
new tapered shape that offers greater control during corner transitions.
The 20x6-10 front Holeshot SX also
incorporates a tighter knob pattern and sipped knobs for an increased
contact area, improving steering response as well as braking control in
hard pack conditions. The new rubber compound helps to keep the knob
edges sharper longer, while the reinforced carcass also magnifies
cornering precision. A secondary benefit of this new carcass design is
that it allows for lower tire pressures than in the past, enhancing ride
comfort as well as steering traction.
