OVERVIEW
The Shinko 005 Advance front tire delivers reliable dry and wet traction with durable rubber construction engineered specifically for cruiser, touring, and custom motorcycles. This 120/70-21 bias-ply tire features an aramid-belted carcass to reinforce shoulder stability during sustained highway riding while providing a tubeless bead configuration for convenient wheel mounting.
ENGINEERING & PERFORMANCE
The tire utilizes a six-ply bias build reinforced by an aramid-belted carcass to maintain structural integrity and prevent shoulder deformation under heavy cruiser loads. Its large block tread layout paired with deep water-dissipating grooves ensures consistent wet road grip and solid braking force across varied surfaces. The durable rubber compound is formulated to extend tread life, supporting steady operation over long distances without compromising the responsive handling expected from front-wheel applications.
