Description
Radial-sized fitments on sport and street bikes still occasionally run tube type wheels on older or spoked applications, and the Bridgestone TR4 tube in 180/60B17 is cut to match that radial profile without crowding the bead. Getting the size right matters more on these fitments since a tube built for the wrong profile tends to fold at the shoulder and wear through early. Even in a radial-compatible profile, the tube still needs the same puncture resistant thickness as any other application, and this build carries that same 3mm natural rubber wall rather than cutting corners for the sportier size.
- Size: 180/60B17
- Valve: TR4
- Rubber: heavy duty 3mm natural rubber, puncture resistant
- Fitment: spoked or multi-piece tube type wheels
- Application: street and sport-touring motorcycles
- Note: match tube profile to tire profile for a clean fit
Sized precisely for 180/60B17 fitments, this tube installs the same way as any other tube type service and is worth carrying as a spare on longer rides where a flat far from home is not an option. IPD Racing keeps this size on the shelf for exactly that kind of trip planning, so a worn tube does not turn into a delayed departure.
