Hard Ende EURO-specific Tire.

The Enduro tire has excellent grip at difficult terrain and hill climbs such as Ikenodaira (Aichi), Suzu-RAN and Mt..

RIDER IMPRESSION
[TAKU IZUMI]
The real value of GEKKOTA is that you can enjoy the best of both worlds when you are confused between Tora Tire (such as Tourist) and Block Tieya (such as VE33)..
It's great for courses like Muddy, gullies and tree roots..
With a certain level of soil rejection, the Grip is as strong as a Tourist in wet roots and bedrock..
Especially the new Spec. I feel that the buckling sensation in the camber at low pressure is reduced since the first time..
MXCourse is certainly not my strong suit..
But even if you are 5 seconds slower in MX, how much time and energy do you lose once you stack?
I would recommend it to all riders who don't want to stack on difficult courses!.

[Impression on front tire]
It is a Tire that grips like TRIALTire on rocks, roots and fallen trees, and grips like MXTire on camber and mud..
You will be surprised at the Situation that you may fall down from the Front, such as slanting rock and wet logs, just by imagining it!.
There are many situations where it is a good idea to "use the COTAFront" such as when you are running on the main at a difficult place, when you put the front brake on the downstream of a stream or when you put the front tire on the log for the second time to blow the front tire..
However, it needs some special way to ride on TRIALTire on Front of EnDuro bikes when the speed is over a certain level..
Specifically, with the Corner, if you don't keep the position of the front tire loaded, the front tends to fall out..
On the other hand, with the COTAFront, even if the front load is removed, the SIDE block will still catch the road surface, so you can tolerate a sloppy riding style..
It's perfect for Situation who wants to use the Front Tire in the race, but also wants to run faster on Corner..
The hard block sticks and gives you an amazing grip on the camber, downhill of FuCaphka and even downhill of Muddy!.
They are very, very grateful, especially at the roots of the trees in the middle of the camber!.
It's also resistant to climbing because it doesn't get shaken by cramps and roots, so you can concentrate on opening the throttle..
It would be perfect for Galek Lime in Mt..
In addition, like Tora Tire, the cushion performance is very high, so you won't get tired anyway..

How to use it
As with the Rear, low pressure operation is used as the basis.. In my case, I was using a range of 0.5-0.7.

・Merit
I was operating with IRCHeavy tube or Mousse because of the low Puncture resistance performance..
Since the performance did not deteriorate extremely even in Mousse, I think that the Mousse can be used with Mousse without being concerned about the tube operation as much as the Rear, if the Mousse is somewhat slender..

・Demerit
As mentioned above, it is not suitable for asphalt movement because it is easy to puncture and it is not durable enough for asphalt movement..
Also, the grip was not good on a dry and hard-packed MXCourse (so-called "Pushing Pan") that requires tire stiffness..
There is a feeling of squishyness due to lack of rigidity..
When attacking the MXCourse at high road surface temperature, the speed of the Block is fast because of the excessive movement of the Compound..
Also, this is a Merit. Like the Rear Ge COTA, this is not a grip with the edge of the block, but rather a grip with the softness of the Side wall, Tread and Block..
As a matter of fact, Life is quite a long Tire, as long as you follow the directions for use..

[HIROSHI TAKAHASHI]
The difference between the new and old GEKKOTA is obvious..
With the new model, the rigidity of the SIDE has been improved and the wobble is reduced, especially at High Speed Cornering..
However, it doesn't lose any of its traditional grip and is certainly the best in the world at the race track..
The way to use the GEKKOTA is to feel the sensation of the Tire gripping the ground, and try to do the accelerator operation carefully..
Rough Accelerator operation will not only damage your Grip, but also wear out your Tire..
If you don't miss the Point, Gekkota will take you to a different dimension where you couldn't go until now..

[Impression on front tire]
After years of testing many different kinds of tires in secret, we finally came up with this new front tire for difficult places..
I went through my difficulty test and Tuck's (Tak Izumi's) speed test, and this is the result of a good combination of both..
On the GNetSeries, there is no doubt that the COTAS series is the only choice for both Front and Rear on the GNetSeries..
Like the Rear COTA, it has an amazing and different dimension grip that overturns the common sense of the conventional front tires.. Please try and experience.

How to use it
I weigh 66 pounds, and my air pressure is about 0.7..
If it's a Speed-type race, I'd raise the Plus 0.1-0.2..

・Merit
First of all, you'll feel as if you have another suspension!.
Tire picks up all the initial lumpiness..
Therefore, you can trace steadily without missing the targeted line..
And most of all, its Grip is great!.
JackKnife can easily grab the ground on a sandy, floating surface!.
In real life, you can grip the roots of trees, gullies and stones of streams..
There's a sense of peace of mind that licks and grips all the areas where Tire has been played before!.

・Demerit
If I had to say something, I would say that this is also a rainy red clay area as well as Rear Ge COTA..
I'm not good at places where I have to stab the ground, basically..
