Description
The Exedra MAX exists because standard cruiser tires were not cutting it for riders logging serious highway time on heavy touring bikes. Bridgestone answered with a rubber compound and profile built around mileage and comfort first, without making the bike feel vague in corners.
- Comfortable, planted ride quality suited to long stretches of highway
- Even wear characteristics that hold handling feel across the tire’s service life
- Rear-specific tuning to match front and rear behavior on heavy platforms
- Consistent contact patch under sustained load for stable interstate cruising
- Steering feel that stays consistent from a light solo ride to a fully loaded touring setup
- Resists the uneven cupping that shows up on heavy bikes covering serious highway distance
- Specially formulated compound built around long-mileage durability rather than short-term grip
- Unique tire profile shaped to reduce rider fatigue on long-distance rides
This is the 170/60-17 Radial version built for Rear fitment, rated (72W), TL. Match the size to your bike’s factory spec before ordering, since a mismatched profile changes handling more noticeably on a heavy touring platform. Riders comparing options across sizes should note that Bridgestone keeps the same compound philosophy across the full range, so the ride character carries over regardless of the exact dimension ordered.
