Abstract: A vehicle tire comprises first and second bead cores spaced apart from each other, a first casing layer wrapped around the bead cores, a second casing layer wrapped around the bead cores, and a tread layer. The first casing layer has first edge sections that overlap with each other at a zenith of the tire and terminate at first edges on opposing sides of the zenith. The second casing layer has second edge sections that do not overlap with each other and that terminate at second edges that are each substantially aligned with one of the first edges. The first and second casing layers are each made of a single unidirectional ply that are in different directions to each other. The sidewall regions and the zenith comprise four plies of casing layers throughout the tire. The tire can further include first and second sidewall reinforcements (e.g., rubber strips) positioned in the first and second sidewall regions.

Abstract: A tire for vehicles, particularly for motorcycles, includes a 0°-cord coil incorporated in vulcanized rubber. The cord utilized for the 0°-cord coil has at least one rubberized strand of wires wound into a coil and has a load-elongation curve with an at least approximately linear region. The cord remains in the approximately linear region when the tire is in the finished, uninflated state as well as when the tire is inflated to the operating pressure. As a result, the running characteristics of the tire are improved. The slope in the approximately linear region of the load-elongation curve is between 0.05% and 0.2% per 10 N.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pneumatic tire for a bicycle, especially a mountain bike, the tire having on each respective left and right side a bead each comprising a bead core. A carcass, preferably a diagonal carcass, which has at least one ply of cords, is wound about each bead core. The tire of the present invention also comprises sidewalls extending radially from the axial edges of its tread which each have a textile sheet structure for wear protection on the outer sides of the carcasses.
