NEW PIRELLI ANGELGT SPORT TOURING TYRE IS NUMBER ONE IN ITS SEGMENT FOR MILEAGE Certified by the authoritative independent body Motorrad TestCenter as the tyre with the highest mileage in its segment. The most recent addition to the Pirelli family boasts a sports pedigree typical of Pirelli products with high performance on dry and wet roads for the entire life cycle of the tyre.

Compared to its predecessor, AngelGT increases mileage by 30%, reduces the braking distance by about 1 metre (at a speed of 75 kph), also improving grip and handling in the wet, and, even more importantly, manages to maintain these characteristics at a high level over time. And so, with the name it chose for this product Pirelli decided to maintain a clear connection to the winning tyre, highlighting the evolution toward a product dedicated to long distances which maintains the typical sport spirit of Pirelli with the abbreviation GT. This is why AngelGT is 100% Italian Gran Turismo, an ideal tyre for those riders who travel long distances with a passenger and the bike fully loaded, or who simply take a ride in the country, but also for those who use their bikes all year round, both for recreation and commuting. All of this is true no matter what bike is used, whether a touring bike, a street enduro, naked or sport bike. Pirelli engineers managed to obtain standard-setting mileage in the segment combined with performance typical of a sport product but, what's more, the unique feature of the AngelGT that sets it apart from the other products in the segment lies in the fact that the characteristics it boasts have limited degradation as kilometres roll by all the way to the end of the product's life cycle. This is a property that Pirelli sums up as “Performance Mileage”.
