The Brand

Avon is a British tyre marque founded in Melksham, Wiltshire, that began making bicycle and car tyres in the early 1900s and built a strong motorsport reputation. It was bought by Cooper Tire in 1997 and passed to Goodyear in 2021, with its former Melksham plant closing in 2023. Avon suits drivers wanting a dependable mid-range tyre with British heritage.

The Pattern
Roadrider MKII Rear

Bias-ply sport-touring rear tyre pairing classic looks with updated grip and mileage for bikes of all ages.

The Roadrider MKII is Avon's sport-touring rear tyre, updating the original with a reworked carcass and fresh compound for steadier handling and improved wet and dry grip. Its bias-ply construction and interrupted centre groove help resist tracking and hold a large contact patch when cranked over. Classic tread and sidewall styling suit vintage and neo-retro machines, while the broad size range also covers many modern roadsters. Avon reports a useful gain in wet stopping over the previous Roadrider.

  • Rear fitment sport-touring pattern
  • Bias-ply construction for classic handling feel
  • Reworked carcass for added stability and cornering grip
  • Updated compound aimed at wet grip and mileage
  • Classic tread and sidewall styling for period looks
Best for Classic, retro and modern roadsters ridden on everyday and touring road journeys
