Bridgestone’s Battlax Adventurecross Scrambler AX41S is a new concept, combining attitude, fashion and performance, with research into the scrambler and ‘café racer’ world.
The AX41S adopts the latest technologies in terms of compounding, a directly derivate
from Bridgestone’s sport-touring category, to ensure the necessary road performances, and provides the perfect match for both a custom build scrambler thanks to its design, and for the rider through its performance.
The design takes performance into account avoiding high heel an toe wear or other irregular wear and the AX41S has been developed in order to be used on the road, not only to match a nice custom build motorcycle in a show-room.
AX41S adopts a single sport-touring compound on the front and a sport-touring compound in 3LC configuration on the rear ensuring the necessary wet and dry grip levels for a secure ride on any café racer or scrambler bike.
Mixing fluent line tracing and blocky robust pattern is the idea behind the pattern design of AX41S. In order to match a wide range of café racer and scrambler bikes, a tiny touch of adventure recognition was added to the flowing grooves.
The Bridgestone Battlax Adventurecross Scrambler AX41S has arrived in a number of sizing options, with pricing listed below and the tyres available now from your Bridgestone stockist.

The Battlax Adventurecross AX41 is Bridgestone’s new trail off-road tyre, aimed at allowing riders to take on any type of path, while enjoying the ride, even when you go into the unknown!
As can be seen in this new pattern’s name, the Battlax Adventurecross AX41 is real mix of Bridgestone’s know-how in the standard trail onroad category with Battlax technology and the state of the art development capacities of block positioning in the off-road world with the Battlecross series.
The AX41 adopts block design and positioning to ensure on and off-road performance, durability and stability. Apply a high cross section area and a small pitch length – increasing the cross section area by 30% compared with the A41. Shorter pitch length increases with the higher diameter of the tyre the amount of blocks over the circumference.
Anti – Irregular Wear Technology or A-IW technology reduces the heel and toe wear at the trailing edge of the block thanks to block deformation under braking forces constraints. This new block profile counters the deformation and ensuring the durability of the tyre.
Redesigning the tyre dimensions to increase the total amount of blocks on the tyre, and an increase in both compound rigidity and strength ensures the balance between durability and off-road performance.
Many sizes of the Bridgestone Battlax Adventurecross AX41 tyre are available now, as listed below, with additional sizes arriving during February and March.

Bridgestone have introduced their new FIM/DOT approved Battlecross E50 Enduro tyres with three sizes currently available in Australia at launch.
The Battlecross E50 is road homologated, can be used in all Enduro competitions, and incorporates Battlecross Motocross technology optimised for real enduro usage. It has shown improvements in all performance areas and on all types of surfaces compared to its predecessor.
Castle block technology offers a flexible tyre response on changing surfaces thanks to an additional edge effect, while the bunker area produces a small amount of extra traction power when the tyre is fully buried in the surface.
The change from a harder tread rubber integrated with the sidewall rubber to an optimised dual compound division and change of the shape and profile at the bottom part of the sidewall by redesigning the rim guard part increase the mounting ease on the side of the track and improve the rim fitting.
The new pattern design also has increased dramatically the edge component of the blocks. +60 % in the front and +120% on the rear. Bridgestone claims this improves both cornering and traction grip.
