The best performances are often the most
unexpected. And perhaps that explains the allure
of the new Lincoln MKZ —which not only wears
a refreshingly bold look on its face, but has an
unforgettable 400 horsepower* engine at its heart.

What makes a tire the fastest in the world? Is it a low
rolling resistance? Better traction? More grip? We say
all of the above, but as riders, we’ve grown used to
compromise. That’s because most tires are made from
carbon black rubber. And most of these tires have a
hard time being good at more than one thing. Call it a
DB145?K2ED>?2?4I9C81@@IG9D8C5DD<9>7Q5C@5391<<I
when their job is on the line.
With tires, we saw a challenge, and our solution came
with a single, funny sounding word:
Gripton®.
Invented by an industry-leading team of scientists and
engineers,
Gripton®
is a proprietary mix of synthetic
rubber and an activated Silica compound. Yes, this
secret recipe is made in something of a black site lab,
but the tires it creates are being won on in plain sight
across the globe and in every condition. Remember that
rainy World Championship in Spain where the win was
decided on a wet descent?
Gripton®.
Or in Richmond
where Peter Sagan broke free along the corners of
Governor
Street?

“A nuanced craft with so many variables
that it’s viewed by many as something
between alchemy and dark magic.”
You see, our compound has a more open molecular pore
structure, so it absorbs less energy when rolling. This
means that the tire will experience less internal friction
when deformed, so there’s less heat buildup and energy
loss. And while there’s way more talk to be had around
hysteresis induced energy loss or our three-phase
compound mixing process that’ll make or break the

have at least 10% less rolling resistance than the closest
competitor,
30%
more traction in wet conditions, and
it’ll roll smoother, longer, and faster than any tire on
the planet.
Don’t
believe us? We have graphs and data
points, but we think that all it’ll take is for you to give
them a spin and see for yourself.
