A Mash-Up of Dunlop’s Best Street and Dirt Technology

 

Combining the best of Dunlop’s dirt and street tyre technology, the Mission is one of the most versatile tyres Dunlop has ever made.

One of the things that make the Mission unique is that Dunlop did not create a one-design-fits-all tyre.

Different bikes impose different demands on tyres, so Dunlop engineers tuned popular fitments of front and rear tyres for a diverse application of ADV bikes so that the tyres consistently achieved Dunlop’s objective of performance and longevity.

These differences apply to both the tread pattern and construction.

Dunlop incorporated Staggered Step technology in both the front and rear tyres.

These steps give the side knobs more rigidity and lug stability to prevent flex, and create more biting edges so as the tread wears, the next biting edge “steps up” to grab hold of the substrate.

In the rear, there are three different sizes and shapes of lateral blocks depending on tyre fitment, a direct result of extensive testing.

 

Common Tread Elements

 

Front and rear tyre patterns have more in common than differences.

One visual distinction for both front and rear is the prominent wrap-around side lug inspired by the Falken Wildpeak.

These lugs have several advantages; they add rigidity and durability in rocky terrain; allow lower pressures to be run off-road with less risk of pinch-flatting; they help provide steering stability in sand, mud and gravel surfaces; and they have an uncanny ability to allow riders to steer out of ruts off-road, even on the really big and heavy ADV bikes.

Additionally, the sidewall rubber is thicker to add higher durability and puncture resistance.

Both front and rear tyres feature a distinctly higher land/sea ratio with about 60 percent land for greater street performance compared to the dirt-oriented D606 at 30 percent land ratio.

Increased tread depth over the Trailsmart adds to Mission’s superior off-road performance.

These comparisons illustrate how different the Mission is compared to other Dunlop adventure and off-road tyres.

Wrap-Around Side Lugs

 

The Side Lugs work by putting your wheels out of ruts and helping to keep elevated over sandy sections.

Dunlop claims that the Side Lugs increase sidewall rigidity and protection against side punctures as well.

Staggered Step Knobs

 

This tiny, but highly effective feature increases bite while off road.

As the tread gets warn, a new, sharp edge reveals itself ensuring greater traction throughout the life of the tyre.

The steps on the rear tyre face backward to increase stopping performance, while the steps on the front tyre face towards the centre to help the front track forward.

Deep Tread Grooves with Unique Patterns

 

The tread on the Trailmax Missions are meaty compared to road tires.

One of the most important features of the Missions is that the tread will vary slightly between wheel sizes.

Tyres for large displacement ADVs utilize connecting bars to increase rigidity and the block sizes and shape changes from tyre to tyre.

Also, the front tread design is different from the rear to ensure both wheels perform optimally in a variety of conditions.

Construction

 

To meet the performance and mileage goals, bias construction was used, with the line featuring a mix of bias and bias-belted tyres as needs dictated.

Bias construction is generally better for off-road since tread and sidewall elements are designed as one component.

Engineers used heavy-duty ply material such as nylon, polyester and/or fiberglass belts that are similar to those used in tough touring tyres such as the American Elite® and Elite® 4.

The result is a tyre with excellent off-road performance that delivers the desired stability at higher speeds.

Designed and Manufactured In Buffalo

 

The Dunlop tyre factory in Buffalo, New York enjoys a long track record of building everything from high-performance racing tyres to premium touring tyres.

The Mission is the first off-road capable tyre designed and manufactured in Buffalo.

The Mission tyres incorporate a tread depth twice as deep as any other motorcycle tyre made in Buffalo before, a huge manufacturing challenge.

 

Mission Accomplished

 

Dunlop tested many competitor tyres and while there are a lot of good products on the market, no one tyre can do all the things Mission does, as well as it does, on such a variety of machines.

With the Mission, Dunlop stayed focused on delivering a higher level of performance, mileage and durability over a wider range of conditions and terrain than any other tyre.

Today’s ADV bikes, Scramblers and Crossovers make enormous demands on tyres, and deserve nothing less than Dunlop’s best technology. The Mission delivers.
