The Metzeler Roadtec 01 Rear (HWM) M/C 190/55R17 75W is designed as a high-performance rear motorcycle tyre for sport-touring and road-focused riding. It targets riders who demand consistent grip in mixed conditions and confident long-distance behaviour. This tyre sits in the premium sport-touring segment and is tuned for stable high-speed performance and predictable handling on asphalt. Optimised contact patch geometry ensures repeatable feedback under power and during lean transitions, helping experienced riders extract traction from the rear axle.

The tread uses a progressive compound and pattern that balances mileage with wet grip performance. Advanced groove architecture supports efficient water evacuation and reduces the risk of instability in standing water. Construction details emphasise carcass control and heat management for uniform wear and tyre life. Reinforced sidewall design contributes to cornering stability and supports precise steering response when changing direction.

For the rider this tyre offers a clear improvement in braking distance and drive-out traction on twisty roads. The combination of even wear and good rolling resistance helps keep operating costs down over longer tours. It delivers a composed ride and confidence when leaning into fast corners.
