Abstract
A high transverse-curvature tire for two wheeled-vehicles comprises a carcass structure, a belt structure including radially-inner and radially-outer layers, and a tread. The radially-inner layer comprises at least one strip made of an elastomeric material incorporating a plurality of reinforcing cords essentially parallel to one another and oriented along directions inclined with respect to the equatorial plane of the tire. The radially-outer layer includes a plurality of circumferential coils, axially arranged side-by-side, of at least one circumferentially-inextensible cord wound at a substantially null angle with respect to the equatorial plane of the tire according to a winding direction adapted to compression-stress elastomeric material portions interposed between consecutive reinforcing cords incorporated in the at least one strip of the radially-inner layer.
