Metzeler tyres set to lead the custom motorcycle scene again in 2026

After taking centre stage at January’s Motor Bike Expo in Verona, the Metzeler brand will meet kustom kulture enthusiasts again at two key European events in 2026

Metzeler continued to support the Motor Bike Expo (MBE) this year, held from 23-25 January 2026 in Verona, Italy. The brand not only had an exhibition area but, for the second consecutive year, was a partner of MBE Premium Selection – the competition dedicated to showcasing builders, workshops and garages from all over Europe, and rewarding the most beautiful motorcycles out there. MBE was the first event of the year for motorcyclists who want to see Metzeler tyres up close, experience their quality firsthand and receive more information.

If you missed this opportunity, the brand will also be present in Senigallia, Italy, for the Spring Rally between 30 April and 3 May, then, later in the year, Metzeler will join a host of brands at European Bike Week^® in Faak am See, Austria, from 8-13 September. In addition to visiting the dedicated exhibition area, motorcyclists will be able to buy Metzeler tyres on the spot by changing tyres during the rallies themselves, thanks to the on-site service. Finally, the booth will also host a corner dedicated to the sale of apparel, where fans and visitors to the show will be able to buy Metzeler branded clothing.

All the custom line products of the tyre brand will be present at the Metzeler booth, including CRUISETEC, ME 888 MARATHON Ultra Whitewall and ME 888 MARATHON Ultra XXL in the 300/35 VR 18 M/C (87V) TL rear size.

With the CRUISETEC, Metzeler offer motorcyclists a more performance-oriented tyre than the segment’s offer to date. CRUISETEC has been developed to take advantage of the full performance potential of both the latest models and older motorcycles. Key features include the high level of grip even in wet conditions, the ability to give the bike revolutionary handling in the segment, performance consistency for the tyre’s lifespan and structural characteristics that emphasise stability and precision, for your riding pleasure. CRUISETEC presents revolutionary solutions in the field of power cruiser, custom and tourer motorcycle tyres in terms of tread design, compounds, profiles and structure.

In short, a tyre able to get the best out of yesterday’s and today’s motorcycles, living up to its ”Performance Perfected” tagline.
