Dunlop extends championship-winning motocross tyre range with Geomax MX34 intermediate tyre
Dunlop has added the new Geomax MX34 to its championship-winning Geomax motocross range. The versatile MX tyre contains several innovations that build on its acclaimed predecessor, the manufacturer says, offering increased grip and consistency on a range of intermediate surfaces. The new tyre is available from July 2023 in 17 sizes, sitting between the Dunlop Geomax MX14 for sand and mud performance and the intermediate to hardpack-focused Geomax MX53.
Dunlop designed the Geomax MX34 for amateur to professional racers, to offer increased, race-proven grip performance and consistency. Replacing the Geomax MX33, a popular tyre on a wide range of soft, mud and intermediate surfaces and in variable weather conditions, the MX34 has been raced by some of the world’s top motocross riders in both the FIM Motocross World Championship (MXGP) and AMA Supercross Championship.
The new tyre features improved front and rear designs. On the front, an optimised block design and updated compound gives enhanced traction and durability compared to its predecessor. Larger spacing between blocks achieves superior mud evacuation. Dunlop has made the rear tyre’s centre blocks 11 per cent higher and 44 per cent wider to increase traction. The extra rear grip gives riders greatly improved acceleration and better feel and feedback. Together, the new designs also offer improved standing-start grip to help with holeshot potential.
Luca Davide Andreoni, marketing manager, Dunlop Motorcycle Europe, says: “The new Dunlop Geomax MX34 adds even more traction and pace to what was already an exceptional tyre. Working with top teams in MXGP and Supercross, we have improved a number of features to give riders of all levels better durability, traction and slide control on a wide range of soft to intermediate surfaces. Together with Geomax MX14 and MX53, we are proud to offer our strongest motocross range yet, drawing on our innovations from winning in top professional championships.”
The Geomax MX34 size range covers 10, 12, 14, 17, 19 and 21-inch front fitments, and 10, 12, 14, 16, 18 and 19-inch rear fitments.
