The Brand

Michelin is one of the world's largest tyre makers, producing tyres for cars, vans, motorcycles, trucks, aircraft and more. The company is known for inventing the removable pneumatic tyre and the radial tyre, and for its long motorsport pedigree. Its range suits drivers who want long-lasting, fuel-efficient tyres with strong safety and handling credentials.

The Pattern
Power Cup 2 Rear

Road-legal, track-focused rear tyre delivering slick-like dry grip for powerful sportbikes and trackday machines.

The Power Cup 2 rear is a road-legal track tyre built for riders chasing maximum dry grip and fast, consistent lap times. Its low tread void keeps a near-slick footprint working hard when cranked over, while a dual-compound layout uses a tougher central compound to handle hard braking and drive alongside a softer shoulder for edge grip. Warm-up is quick with or without warmers, and it suits high-output sportbikes and litre-class machines ridden mainly on track.

  • Road-legal tyre designed primarily for track use
  • Very low tread void for a near-slick dry contact patch
  • Dual-compound build for braking, drive and edge grip
  • Fast warm-up, usable with or without tyre warmers
  • Suited to high-output sportbikes and litre-class machines
Best for Powerful sportbikes and litre-class machines on dry trackdays and spirited road rides
