170/60 R17 72W Metzeler Tourance Next 2

Road Focused Adventure Performance, Evolved

The Tourance Next 2 is Metzeler’s latest generation road adventure tyre, engineered for riders who want confident all weather grip, neutral handling and long distance stability on modern ADV and crossover machines. It builds on the reputation of the original Tourance Next with updated compounds, refined carcass behaviour and improved wet surface performance, making it a strong choice for riders who spend most of their time on tarmac but still demand durability and control.

Key Technical Characteristics

Stable, Neutral Road Handling

A radial construction with a steel belted design gives the Tourance Next 2 a calm, predictable feel across a wide range of speeds. Steering remains neutral and consistent, helping heavier adventure bikes hold a clean line whether ridden solo or fully loaded.

Enhanced Wet Surface Grip

New generation compounds and a multi layer tread structure improve chemical grip in the wet, giving the tyre strong braking stability and confident cornering even in cooler temperatures. The tread layout is engineered to clear water efficiently, maintaining a stable contact patch in poor conditions.

Durable Performance Throughout the Tyre’s Life

The compound blend and tread geometry are designed to resist deformation and maintain performance as the tyre wears. This helps preserve handling precision, braking feel and wet weather confidence over long mileage.

Comfort and Stability Under Load

The carcass and belt package are tuned to support the weight of luggage, pillions and touring equipment without compromising ride comfort. The tyre remains composed during high speed cruising and long distance travel.

Road Optimised for Modern Adventure Bikes

While capable of light mixed surface use, the Tourance Next 2 is primarily engineered for tarmac performance — offering the grip, stability and refinement expected from a premium road focused adventure tyre.
