Metzeler is a German brand that has produced motorcycle tyres since 1892 and is known for its focus on two-wheeled performance, from touring to sport and off-road use. Owned by Pirelli since 1986, it develops premium motorcycle tyres and suits riders who want established German engineering and a strong technical reputation.
Road-racing-derived sport rear tyre offering agile handling and dependable grip in wet, cold and imperfect conditions.
The Sportec M7 RR rear is Metzeler's road-focused sport tyre, developed from real-world road racing at events such as the Isle of Man TT. It uses a dual-compound layout, with a harder central section for extended mileage and softer shoulders for grip when cranked over, plus high-silica materials for confident traction on cold, wet, greasy and broken tarmac. Testers praise its neutral turn-in, stability under braking and reassuring wet-weather feel, making it a versatile choice for spirited road riding.
- Rear fitment developed from road racing experience
