Features and Benefits
- Claw-shaped lugs hollowed and divided for maximum biting edges: The uniquely shaped lugs are split into two sections to double the number of biting edges, dramatically increasing grip and traction in soft terrain, deep mud, and loose dirt — giving the tyre more to grab onto when conditions get challenging.
- High void ratio for aggressive self-cleaning: The wide spacing between lugs allows mud, dirt, and debris to eject rapidly from the contact patch as the tyre rotates — maintaining available grip and forward traction without packing up, even in the stickiest conditions.
- Lugs extended onto the sidewall: Shoulder and sidewall lugs provide additional biting edges during cornering and when navigating through ruts, preventing side-slipping and keeping the vehicle tracking confidently even on steep or uneven terrain.
- Extremely lightweight design for quick acceleration and braking: The MU-02’s lightweight construction reduces rotational mass, enabling faster acceleration response and more responsive braking — a meaningful performance advantage for trail riding and recreational use. A near-continuous centre rib between the aggressive outer lugs reduces rolling resistance on firmer surfaces and trails, delivering a noticeably smoother, more comfortable ride when conditions allow.
- Predictable high-speed performance: The tread design and construction are tuned for stable, predictable behaviour at higher speeds across soft to intermediate terrain — giving riders the confidence to push harder on familiar tracks and trails.
- Durable 6-ply rated carcass: Despite the lightweight construction, the reinforced 6-ply rated casing delivers the strength and durability needed to withstand the impacts, torsional loads, and rough handling of aggressive off-road use.
- A genuinely versatile mud and trail tyre suited to the variable conditions encountered across New Zealand’s farm tracks, back-country trails, and recreational off-road environments.
