Dunlop launches the all-new Geomax MX53. Designed for choked surfaces with great traction in moderate conditions. They complement the mid-range Geomax MX33 tyres that win MXGP and supercross races.
Dunlop launches the Geomax MX53, replacing the MX52 motocross hard terrain tyre. The new MX53s offer riders class-leading performance on a wider range of surfaces than the previous generation covered. Dunlop's broad Geomax portfolio includes the MX71 for 'extra hard' terrain and the highly versatile MX33.
Better shock absorption and lower weight: an all-new design
Grip, durability and confidence: revolutionary tread pattern
The horseshoe-shaped tread pattern on the front tyres offers better braking performance as its claw-shaped blocks dig more into hard terrain. The blocks are also 1 millimetre higher than the previous generation. This would normally result in a loss of stability, but Dunlop has added connectors between the blocks, giving the tyres stable performance and greater durability.
The rear tyres have distinctive, irregularly spaced pairs of blocks. They guarantee strong traction and better acceleration - which is crucial for getting off the line as quickly as possible! Dunlop has optimised the spacing between the blocks to provide grip on softer terrain, while maintaining performance on firmer, packed surfaces. Luca Andreoni commented. We know that conditions can change from circuit to circuit, and even corner to corner, so we are still building on the winning philosophy of our MX33 tyres - top-level performance over the widest possible range."
To give riders greater confidence at different lean levels, Dunlop's patented Progressive Cornering Block technology allows each individual block to be flexed. The result is a greater number of trailing edges under high cornering loads.
New compound - strength and durability
Efforts to increase the MX53's versatility also necessitated the development of a completely different compound to the MX52. The advanced mix of different compounds contains a high number of polymer molecules and results in greater strength and therefore greater durability through increased shear resistance.

Use and maintenance
Store tyres clean and away from sources of heat, light, ozone or hydrocarbons. Avoid prolonged exposure of tyres to direct sunlight. Avoid any contact with grease, petrol, volatile solvents or other agents that may damage the rubber. Avoid horizontal storage of tubeless tyres, only small tyres can be stored horizontally (maximum 6 months). If tyres are stored horizontally, they must be placed tooth to tooth.If tyres are stored mounted on the rim, reduce the inflation pressure. Make sure there is no water or moisture inside the tyre. Never store tyres in direct contact with the ground for long periods of time. For safety reasons, tyres should only be repaired by experts using the correct methods and toolsWhen loading a tyre, the relationship between speed, inflation pressure and load capacity must be taken into account. Overloading causes premature destruction of the tyre. Use technical documentation and inflation tables that define the load and inflation for different operating speeds. Under-inflation is not only caused by improper run-flatting, but also by liner separation or other damage to the tyre liners. Overinflation increases the hardness of the tyre and reduces the resistance to impacts leading to damage to the tyre liners.
Instructions for assembly and disassembly
Mounting and dismounting tyres can be dangerous and should only be carried out by trained and qualified personnel using the correct tools and working procedures. Failure to follow these procedures may result in incorrect fitting of the tire to the rim, resulting in destruction of the tire with explosive force that can cause serious injury or death.Make sure the rim, tire and tube are compatible. Check that the tyre is suitable for the equipment/machine. Use only rims recommended or approved by the tire manufacturer. Always use only the correct special equipment and tools.The rim must be clean and in perfect condition (not damaged etc.), if necessary clean the rim with sandpaper. Under no circumstances mount tyres on rims that are cracked, seriously deformed, have welding repair marks, etc.Carefully inspect the inside as well as the outside of the tyre to identify any damage. If the extent of the damage does not allow repair, the tyre should be devalued.When fitting with a tube, always use the correct new tube and liner for the size. For mounting tubeless tires, on tubeless rims, always use a new tubeless valve.Lubricate the rim and bead before mounting. Use only a suitable lubricant that will not destroy the tire (never use silicone or gasoline based lubricants).Vertical mounting is recommended. In the case of horizontal mounting, it is essential to check that the bottom bead is seated correctly. Fit the casing onto the rim opposite the valve hole (respect the direction of rotation indicated by the arrows). Using the mounting lever, gradually slide the first bead over the rim rim rim rim. Then insert a lightly inflated inner tube, sufficiently treated with a slip joint (if fitted), into the rim. Position the valve and secure it lightly with the retaining ring. Insert the second foot, working in sequence so that you end up at the valve.To seat and centre the shell correctly, remove the inner valve liner. Slowly inflate and check for proper seating of the casing foot. Ensure that the casing foot has not pinched the inner tube.Maintain a safe distance during inflation, always use a safety cage, preferably attached to a wall or safety chain. During pressure readings, make sure that no part of your body is in the possible trajectory of the valve internals or its cap. It is recommended to use a suitable device to limit the inflation pressure. Use a filter and dehumidifier for the compressed air necessary to remove moisture and dust.If the feet are not seated properly, release the air, re-pressurize and inflate. Repeat this operation until the feet are seated correctly. If all the previous operations have been carried out correctly, fit the inner valve insert. Inflate the tyre according to the load Ensure that the valve does not touch the rim, brake drums or other mechanical parts. Disassembly Never attempt to remove the bead of an inflated tyre.Always remove the inner valve insert. Check that the tyre is completely free of air before dismounting. Never use tools that may damage the rim or tire beads.
