Riding on the Edge With EuroGrip Be Connect Tires

EuroGrip Be Connect tires provide confident grip and comfort for Suzuki Burgman Street 125 urban daily rides even with a pillion.

Passionate riders know that tires are the unsung heroes of every adventure and commute. Recently, EuroGrip tires, designed in Milan, Italy, and thoroughly tested, caught my attention. My daily workhorse is the Suzuki Burgman Street 125. I’m focusing on the EuroGrip Be Connect tires. They are 110/70-12 47P TL front and 130/70-10 47P TL rear. For a scooter navigating bustling Metro Manila streets, often with a pillion (OBR, of course!), tire performance is important.

First Impressions & Key Tech

The Be Connect’s purposeful tread pattern looks great. It has wide grooves. Ideal for shedding water in unpredictable Philippine weather. It’s important to note that while designed in Italy, EuroGrip is part of TVS Srichakra Limited. One of India’s leading tire manufacturers. This strong foundation in a demanding market speaks volumes. EuroGrip’s performance and quality are recognized globally. Reputable brands can attest to this. The BMW (G310 R) and Aprilia (Tuono 457) in India chose them as an OEM fitment (Source: https://eurogriptyresph.com/ and https://tyres.cardekho.com/news/aprilia-tuono-457-launched-in-india-gets-tvs-eurogrip-protorq-extreme-tyres ).
