Product Information

Full details

The CST CM-AD01 Ride Ambro is designed for riders of small to medium adventure motorcycles who frequently split their time between paved roads and off-road trails. With a 70/30 on-road/off-road bias, it provides a versatile solution for varied terrain, offering excellent cornering stability and durability. While the tyre excels in mixed conditions, riders seeking high-speed track performance or extreme specialized rock-crawling may find its rugged construction and tread pattern better suited to general adventure and touring applications.

FAQs

Is this tyre street legal?

Yes, the CST CM-AD01 is designed for on-road and off-road use and meets the requirements for public road operation.

Can I use this on a heavy touring motorcycle?

This tyre is specifically intended for small to medium adventure motorcycles. Check your bike's weight and load ratings to ensure compatibility.

Does the tyre come with a tube?

No, this is a tyre only. Please check if your specific motorcycle rim requires a tube or if it is a tubeless-compatible setup.

How often should I check the tyre pressure?

It is best practice to check your pressure at least once a week or before every significant ride to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

What is the primary benefit of the 70/30 design?

The 70/30 ratio provides a comfortable and stable ride on tarmac while retaining enough grip and debris-clearing ability for light off-road trails.

Will this tyre fit my 18-inch front wheel?

No, the 110/80-17 size is designed exclusively for a 17-inch rim diameter.

Troubleshooting

Uneven tread wear

Check your tyre pressure against the manufacturer recommendation; over-inflation or under-inflation can cause premature or uneven wear.

Excessive vibration at high speed

Ensure the tyre is correctly balanced by a professional and check that the bead is seated evenly around the entire rim circumference.

Poor traction in deep mud

While the sipes help, ensure your pressure is slightly lowered for off-road use to increase the footprint, provided you are within safe operating limits.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent traction in mud and sand
  • Enhanced durability against cuts and trail debris
  • Balanced stability for mixed-surface riding
  • Improved water evacuation for wet road safety

Cons

  • Not optimized for high-speed sport riding
  • Less aggressive than pure off-road specialized tyres
  • May produce more road noise than slick-profile tyres

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This tyre is specifically sized at 110/80-17. Ensure your motorcycle rim width is compatible with this specification before installation. It is recommended to have the tyre fitted by a professional technician using a proper bead-seating tool to ensure the casing is not damaged during the mounting process.

For optimal care:

  1. Maintain Proper Pressure: Check your tyre pressure weekly or before long trips to ensure the tread wears evenly.
  2. Periodic Cleaning: If riding in heavy mud, ensure the sipes remain clear to maintain maximum ejection efficiency.
  3. Visual Inspection: Inspect the tread for embedded rocks or glass every 500 miles to prevent potential casing punctures.
  4. Storage: If the bike is stored for long periods, keep it off the ground to prevent flat spots on the tread.
