The Dunlop Sportmax Q5A 160/60R18 70W is targeted at sport-touring and heavier sport motorcycles where mixed road performance and endurance are priorities. It fits riders seeking a tyre that blends sporty handling with long-distance capability. The tyre construction features a bi-linear casing and an advanced compound strategy that widens the contact patch under lean, enhancing cornering stability and grip in high-speed transitions. Tread design balances water evacuation channels with a large shoulder area to maintain traction through varying lean angles and weather.

Compound formulation focuses on delivering consistent wet grip while keeping rolling resistance at a reasonable level to preserve fuel economy. The tyre also provides good mileage through controlled tread wear and a durable carcass that supports load capacity on loaded tours. Layered compound technology improves stability when hot, and stiffened shoulder zones aid precision.

For the rider this results in confident steering response, shorter braking distance in mixed conditions, and an overall increase in long-distance comfort with reliable performance over many miles.
