Description
For riders chasing a factory-custom look without sacrificing ride manners, the Cobra Chrome front tire threads that needle.
- Snake-skin shoulder texture and embossed cobra head logo for a finished, factory-custom look.
- Wet-weather braking performance improved through updated compound chemistry.
- About 10 percent more mileage than the standard Cobra thanks to the enhanced compound.
- New carcass construction that holds its profile mile after mile.
- Load and speed rating specific to this size, built into Avon’s Cobra Chrome spec sheet.
Built on the AV91 tread pattern for the front position, this Cobra Chrome tire is part of Avon’s chrome-trim cruiser line and carries the size and rating designation 100/90-19 57V 1DK. It is engineered as a direct fit for the wheel and load range that size calls for, with no substitute sizing implied. Up front, a tire like this carries the steering feedback and most of the braking load, so tread profile and carcass stiffness both matter more than they would on a smaller bike. Riders switching over from a worn OE or generic replacement tire typically notice the difference in the first few miles, particularly under braking or through a decreasing-radius on-ramp where sidewall stiffness and compound grip both come into play.
Riders swapping in this tire should confirm 100/90-19 57V 1DK against their rim width first, since an undersized or oversized fit changes both handling feel and clearance. IPD Racing offers this Avon Cobra Chrome tire true to that specification.
