Dunlop Introduces New Geomax MX33 tires. The MX3S tires have been the most popular model in the Dunlop lineup since being introduced a few years ago and is the tire of choice among most pro and amateur motocross racers in the US. Despite a dominant position in the market, Dunlop just introduced the completely new MX33 as the replacement for the MX3S.

Dunlop’s Broc Glover shares more details on the new tire in this video:

The MX33 targets soft to intermediate terrain but like the MX3S, it is expected that many riders will use it on a wide range of surfaces. The goal for Dunlop with this tire was to improve the long-term durability without sacrificing any performance. To do this, the MX33 includes tie-bars between the blocks, a new rubber compound and a new dread design. That tread design includes a new Block-In-A-Block shape on the rear and is also now used on the front tire. The new rear tread pattern also includes a total of 72 knobs versus 66 on the MX3S. That combined with the Block-In-A-Block ads provides more edges to improve traction.

We got the opportunity to test ride the new MX33 tires at California’s Zaca Station MX this week and felt that they provided good performance. We did not yet get enough time on them to know if the goal for increased durability has been achieved but will be putting more time on them in the coming weeks.

The MX33 tires should be available in dealers now. For more information, visit www.dunlopmotorcycletires.com.
