The Plews Tyres MX1 Hawkstone GP Soft Rear 120/80-19 is a rear motocross tyre for soft terrain, designed for deep sand, mud and soft ground. The MX1 Hawkstone GP has been developed to deliver high grip and control in conditions where the tyre needs to dig effectively into the ground.
Its name comes from Hawkstone Park in Shropshire, England, one of the historic British motocross tracks, known for its deep sandy terrain and challenging climbs.
The MX1 Hawkstone GP design combines LFC (Lateral Flex Control), SAC (Stability, Aggressive Control) and BSB (Block Supporting Bracing) technologies with taller, wider tread blocks to enhance traction in deep sand and mud.
LFC – Lateral Flex Control LFC (Lateral Flex Control) technology relates to the tyre carcass design and uses high-quality race polyester for a lightweight, heat-resistant construction. LFC is designed to control the carcass’s lateral flex, helping to maintain motorcycle stability and control, even in demanding motocross conditions.
SAC – Stability, Aggressive Control The SAC (Stability, Aggressive Control) design philosophy focuses on stability, immediate and aggressive control, and increased traction. The MX1 Hawkstone GP features taller tread blocks with increased width, aiming to provide a larger rubber contact area with the ground. At the same time, the design remains within the 19.5 mm tread depth limit specified by Plews Tyres.
BSB – Block Supporting Bracing BSB (Block Supporting Bracing) technology is designed to support the tread blocks when they are subjected to high loads and intense acceleration. Its aim is to limit unwanted flexing and movement of the blocks under load, helping the tread maintain greater stability when the rider opens the throttle on soft ground.
Taller tread blocks The taller tread blocks are designed to provide better bite in deep sand, mud and soft soil. This tread design helps the rear tyre find traction from the start and under acceleration, when the ground is loose and the blocks need to penetrate effectively.
Developed for Soft Terrain The MX1 Hawkstone GP is specifically designed for tracks and terrain with deep sand and mud, following the demands of the sandy conditions at Hawkstone Park. The combination of taller, wider tread blocks with LFC, SAC and BSB technologies aims to deliver traction, stability and control on challenging soft terrain.
NHS – Not for Highway Service The Plews Tyres MX1 Hawkstone GP carries the NHS (Non Homologated / Not for Highway Service) marking. This tyre is not approved for use on public roads and is intended for off-road and motocross track use.
