  What the media had to say:

  Motor Cycle News (UK) “Racetec Interact™ is right at the end of sticky, road legal motorcycles tyres and after a day riding on them at Brands Hatch, they’re much better than I am, no question. This is a 10/10 tyre, no question”…..”the new Interacts offer superb feel and the impression you’re glued to the tarmac. They’re faultless”.

  Superbike Magazine (UK) “..which is to say there's plenty of feel and support from the front end and more rear grip than a ladyboy on the gas like me can use. Although there were no tyre warmers used on the launch, within three laps of the [Brands Hatch] circuit, the tyres felt like they were ready to go, which, on a cool and damp day, is mighty impressive”.

  In Moto (Italy) “..we can say without a doubt that Racetec has excellent dynamic behaviour. Despite the low temperatures... after a day on track at full throttle, tyres were still in good condition (optimum mileage then!)...performance lasted all day (achieving our best times in the last session, when tyres had many laps). Almost impervious to stress... grip, adherence and handling at excellence levels. We much liked the progressive lean and directional precision guaranteed by these tyres".

  Bike Magazine (Scandinavia) “After a whole day of driving on Valencia, we found that Metzeler has created an outstanding tire with the new Racetec Interact™. We have run a standard suspension setup and the tyre provides much good information to the driver about what is happening. Grip is outstanding”.

  PS Magazine (Germany) Metzeler’s track day tyre, the Racetec Interact Comp K3 has won the racing tyre category with street homologation shootout conducted by PS Magazine; the most popular sport magazine in Germany.
