TRAILMAX MERIDIAN
ADVENTURE & TRAIL
With its innovative new tread pattern, all new compounds and Multi-Tread (MT) technology the Trailmax Meridian is a class-leading performer in every aspect. Thorough benchmark testing proved a substantial increase in mileage and handling in wet and dry conditions compared to its competitors. It’s the perfect partner for today's demanding high-performance adventure bikes. The Trailmax Meridian also allows you to venture off-road where it delivers above-average performance.
- Innovative ‘ice-ax’ tread pattern grips gravel, increases traction on unpaved roads and provides optimum water drainage, helping riders keep their cool in all conditions
- Rayon Ply tire casing handles heat better, minimising warm up times and achieving the more efficient use of the tread compound
- Using state of the art compounds and resin blends provide improved grip in wet conditions
- Multi-Tread (MT) technology (combining a softer shoulder and tougher centre) gives rock-solid grip and great durability

Benefits
NEW COMPOUND BLEND
All new compound blend which combines wet grip resin in the shoulder compound with silica and ultra-fine carbon black. This provides increased safety margin on wet surfaces and better outright performance within a wider operating range.
NEWLY DEVELOPED RAYON PLY CARCASS AND SECTION SHAPE
Dunlop’s Trailmax Meridian range features newly developed rayon carcasses, for reduced steering effort and offering more precise handling, whilst maintaining the brand's trademark rider confidence and reliable feedback.
BALANCED FRONT & REAR WEAR RATE
Front and rear tyres offer a very similar wear rate, meaning both can be changed at the same time. No need for 2 dealer visits means greater owner convenience!
INNOVATIVE PATTERN DEVELOPMENT
The new pattern will ensure faster warm up times and optimised wear thanks to the tuned tread stiffness and enhanced groove angles.
Dunlop tyre technologies
We were the first to apply race tyre performance standards to street tyres. With engineers and designers across Europe, Japan and North America.
MULTI-TREAD (MT) TECHNOLOGY
Years of success in global Superbike, Endurance and GP championships have resulted in the development of a pioneering multi-compound, which is transferred to many of our current Sportmax track and road products. By mixing compounds, the same tyre can display different performance properties at maximum leaning angles than when upright during straight line speed.
JOINTLESS BELT (JLB) CONSTRUCTION
All our radial street tyres are designed using a combination of Computer Aided Design (CAD) technology and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) as well as JointLess Belt (JLB) construction (either front or rear). JLB construction eliminates the belt overlaps resulting in smoother handling and a more stable contact patch with the road.
DYNAMIC FRONT FORMULA (DFF)
The front tyre section shape and mould profile have been optimised using Dunlop’s Dynamic Front Formula (DFF) design approach. This provides the ideal balance between steering effort, stability and feedback, delivering unparalleled rider confidence and enjoyment.
HISILICA
An increased Silica content is used to promote compound flexibility at low temperatures. Used to reduce a compound's reliance on temperature to offer optimum grip in wet and less than ideal conditions, as well as to increase mileage.
4 SEASON TECHNOLOGY
Tyre architecture, ply materials and compound definition are carefully selected to ensure optimum operation in sub-ideal climatic conditions. With improved wet and cold grip, this provides increased safety, rider confidence and comfort.
