[motorcycle.com] - Dunlop Q3 Tire Review

Dunlop Q3 Tire ReviewNow Dunlop is extolling the virtues of carbon fiber in its latest sport tire, the Q3, the successor to the Q2, itself a winner of numerous magazine tire tests and the tire of choice for many riding schools in the U.S. CFT, or Carbon Fiber Technology, is the buzzword acronym now and it stems from the use of carbon fiber filaments extruded into the rubber used to form the Q3's sidewall.

The benefit, Dunlop says, is lighter feeling on turn-in, better stability at full lean, and more composure driving out of a corner. Beyond the performance benefits, with advancements in manufacturing efficiencies and processes, the Q3 will cost exactly the same as the Q2 before it, in all sizes.
