170/60 R17 72W Bridgestone Battlax Adventure Trail AT41

The Battlax Adventure Trail AT41 is built for riders who want an adventure styled tread pattern with strong road manners and dependable performance in poor weather. Its block inspired design gives the tyre a rugged appearance while still being engineered primarily for tarmac use, offering confident handling in both dry and wet conditions.

Positioned between the road focused A41 and the more off road capable AX41, the AT41 suits riders who spend most of their time on the road but still want light off road capability and a more aggressive look. It is aimed at the 80% road / 20% trail segment, balancing touring comfort with improved wet surface traction.

• Road biased adventure tyre with a purposeful block style tread
• Strong wet weather performance and reassuring braking feel
• Predictable handling and stability on dry roads
• Tread layout designed to enhance water clearance and grip
• New front tyre compound for better wear life and improved wet traction

Technology and Design Features 

RC Polymer – Consistent Road Contact

The compound uses Bridgestone’s RC Polymer technology to help distribute silica more evenly and keep the rubber flexible across a wide temperature range. This supports better road contact in hot and cold conditions, reduces internal friction, and can contribute to improved rolling efficiency.

Groove Design – Enhanced Wet Grip

The tread pattern uses a higher overall groove volume and a more uniform groove ratio across the contact patch. This helps the tyre move water more effectively, improving grip, braking performance and stability when riding in the rain.

Adventure Inspired Look

The block style tread gives the AT41 a tougher, off road influenced appearance while still being optimised for road use. The updated block shape also helps reduce uneven wear on the tyre’s shoulders.

New Compound – All Weather Touring Performance

A touring focused compound, including a multi compound layout on the rear (3LC), provides a blend of mileage, dry road stability and dependable wet surface grip.

Stability and Comfort

A mono spiral belt construction helps the tyre maintain rigidity while also absorbing road imperfections. Combined with the tread design, this supports straight line stability and a smoother, more comfortable ride.
