Které rozměry duálních sportovních pneumatik mají nejvyšší poptávku?

The dual sport and adventure tire segment has been the fastest-growing motorcycle tire category for five consecutive years globally. Driven by the popularity of adventure bikes from BMW, KTM, Honda, Yamaha, and Royal Enfield, understanding which dual sport tire sizes have the highest demand is essential for any tire wholesaler looking to capitalize on this trend.

The Universal Adventure Front: 90/90R21

Without question, the highest-demand dual sport tire size is the 90/90R21 front. This size fits virtually every full-size dual sport and adventure bike on the market, from the Honda CRF300L and KTM 390 Adventure up to the BMW R1300GS and Triumph Tiger 1200. It is the universal entry point for the adventure tire market.

The 90/90R21 size commands the largest volume because it is used across the widest range of motorcycles — entry-level, mid-size, and premium. Popular tire models in this size include the Continental TKC 80, Dunlop D606, Michelin Anakee Wild, and Bridgestone AX41.

The Two Competing Rear Standards: 17-Inch vs 18-Inch

The dual sport rear wheel comes in two competing standards, and both have strong demand.

18-Inch Rear Sizes (Traditional Dual Sport)

• 120/90R18 — the classic dual sport rear, used on the Honda XR650L, Suzuki DR650, and Kawasaki KLX650
• 130/90R18 — larger dual sport rear, popular in the 650cc+ segment
• 4.60-18 — inch-size standard, used on the Suzuki DR-Z400S and smaller dual sports
• 150/70R18 — adventure touring standard for mid-to-large adventure bikes (Africa Twin, Triumph Tiger 900)

17-Inch Rear Sizes (Modern Adventure)

• 130/80R17 — most common on mid-size adventure bikes (KTM 390 Adventure, Kawasaki Versys 300)
• 150/70R17 — adventure standard, used on the BMW F850GS, Yamaha Tenere 700
• 170/60R17 — used on the BMW R1250GS and KTM 1290 Super Adventure
• 130/90R17 — supermoto and street-biased dual sport sizes

The 19-Inch Adventure Front

While 21-inch dominates the dual sport market, 19-inch front wheels are common on bigger adventure bikes designed for more road riding:

• 120/70R19 — the standard “adventure road” front, fitted to the BMW R1250GS, Yamaha Super Tenere, and Ducati Multistrada
• 110/80R19 — occasional alternative for smaller adventure bikes
