RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CA – April 16, 2026 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – Dunlop Tires North America is proud to announce its return to the bicycle market with the introduction of the all-new Geomax® mountain bike tire range. Built from decades of championship-winning motocross and supercross development, the Geomax MTB lineup delivers race-proven performance to modern trail, enduro, and downhill riding.
The launch includes two distinct platforms, the Geomax MB34 and Geomax MB53, each engineered with purpose-built front and rear designs to address the specific demands of mountain bike riding. Developed using the same performance philosophy that defines Dunlop’s Geomax motocross lineup, these tires emphasize terrain engagement, predictability, and rider confidence at speed.
“The DNA of this project comes directly from our motocross and supercross programs,” said Chad Geer, Director of Motorcycle Marketing & Motorsports. “We took the same approach to traction, braking control, and cornering performance that has delivered championships at the highest levels of racing and applied it to mountain biking. The result is two tires that feel precise, predictable, and fast in real-world riding conditions.”
The Geomax MB34 is designed for maximum traction and control in aggressive terrain. With a focus on braking stability, cornering precision, and ground penetration, the MB34 provides a planted and confidence-inspiring control for riders pushing the limits.
The Geomax MB53 prioritizes roll speed and efficiency while maintaining predictable handling. Its tread design promotes fast acceleration, smooth transitions, and controlled drift characteristics, making it ideal for riders seeking speed without sacrificing control.
Both platforms feature advanced technologies derived from Dunlop’s off-road racing program, including Progressive Cornering Block Technology (PCBT), optimized knob placement, and compound development focused on balancing grip, durability, and compliance. The lineup also includes position-specific front and rear designs, as well as dedicated Enduro and Downhill casing options to suit a wide range of riding styles and terrain.
Dunlop’s return to the bicycle category represents a continuation of its legacy, which began with the invention of the first practical pneumatic bicycle tire in 1887. Today, that same innovation and racing heritage drives the development of products designed to perform at the highest level, whether on the track or the trail.
The Dunlop Geomax MTB tire range will officially debut at the Sea Otter Classic, with availability through select dealers and online channels soon.
