0° steel belt radial construction
The steel belt under the tread is wound parallel to the direction of rotation, so the shape holds at speed.
Press
TOURENFAHRER
Wound at zero degrees over the radial casing, the steel belt restrains a tread that centrifugal force is trying to expand.
The rider sees the result in two places: stability at speed and less deformation in corners. The construction is used across the Trailhound family.

High-silica compound
A compound with raised silica content improves grip on cold and wet asphalt.
Press
Moto.it
Rubber stiffens as it cools and loses grip. Raising the silica content keeps the compound flexible at low temperature, and the contact patch also works better on a wet surface.
The compound is used in the Bee Wild and Trailhound families.

Quadrazone multicompound
On selected Trailhound STR rear sizes the tread is built from distinct compound zones, each with a different job.
Press
1000PS
A single compound cannot do everything at once: the centre needs low rolling resistance and mileage, the shoulder needs cornering grip.
Quadrazone separates those demands into zones across the same tread. The technology is present on selected Trailhound STR rear sizes; the front tyre does not carry it.

Symmetrical knobs — the tyre can be reversed
On the Climber XC-R the knob geometry is symmetrical, so the tyre can be refitted the other way round once one side is worn.
Press
Endurista
On an enduro tyre, wear usually collects on one side. Cutting the knobs symmetrically allows the tyre to be turned around on the rim when that side is gone.
This is not a performance claim but a construction decision about service life. The Climber XC-R is designed to comply with FIM Enduro rules.

1000PS — Trailhound STR road test
1000PS rode the Trailhound STR on a Suzuki V-Strom 800 for 350 km from Barcelona to the Pyrenees.
Independent test
1000PS
The route climbs from the Mediterranean coast to Coll de Pal at 2,106 m; warm coastal curves, patched asphalt, light gravel and mountain passes carrying meltwater all fall inside the same test.
The test belongs to an independent publication; the report and video can be read from the source link.

DueRuote — control tyre in a comparison test
The Italian publication DueRuote fitted the Trailhound Wild to both bikes while comparing a CFMOTO 800MT-X with a VOGE Valico 800DSX Rally.
Manufacturer bulletin
DueRuote
Fitting the same tyre to both machines in a comparison test exists to take the tyre out of the equation: what is being measured is the motorcycles, not the tyres.
This is not a review and carries no verdict on the tyre. The record has two sources: the claim comes from the manufacturer's own bulletin, the test video belongs to DueRuote.

Endurista — Climber XC-R Supersoft test
Endurista Magazine tested the tyre on a TM 300 2T Corse 2026 in the hills near Rimini.
Independent test
Endurista Magazine
The route at Villagrande di Montecoppiolo took in mud, wet rock, slippery climbs and river sections; the publication described the conditions as "almost extreme enduro".
The Climber XC-R Supersoft is designed for slow, technical enduro and is the softest of the three compounds. The test belongs to an independent publication; the video can be watched from the source link.

InMoto — Trailhound STR and Wild test
InMoto rode both tyres on a Honda Africa Twin 1100 Adventure Sports at the Vallelunga proving ground and the roads around it.
Independent test
InMoto
Because the same motorcycle and the same route were used for both tyres, any difference comes from the tyre rather than the bike or the conditions. The STR is designed around 90% road / 10% off-road, the Wild around 70% / 30%.
The test ran mainly on paved roads with a few light off-road sections. It belongs to an independent publication; the article and video can be read from the source link.

This is a swap test: the reference point is the tyre the machine left the factory with. What was measured is stability, steering precision, braking and acceleration, on asphalt and on light off-road.

The test covers city riding, country roads, motorway, wet surfaces and light dirt. What separates a long-term test from a single ride is simple: only time shows how wear distributes across the tread.

This record comes from a market outside Europe; the same tyre was tested independently in a different climate and on different roads.
⚠️ We do not describe the scope of the test here: the review is in Chinese and we hold no transcript, so we do not know which motorcycle or which surfaces were involved. The video is at the source link.
