The Continental TKC 80 is a multi-purpose motorcycle tyre designed for riders who alternate between road riding and stretches on dirt tracks. Recognised for more than 40 years, this iconic model is aimed at users looking for a tyre capable of delivering reliable off-road traction while retaining good control on asphalt.
Its wide-block tread pattern promotes grip on loose surfaces. This design improves traction on dirt, mud or sand, while also providing useful lateral stability when the terrain becomes more uneven. The TKC 80 is therefore suited to mixed use, particularly for trail and adventure motorcycles.
The tread pattern has also been designed to limit the build-up of material between the blocks. This self-cleaning capability helps preserve grip when the tyre is used on loose or wet ground, in order to maintain safer riding in difficult conditions.
Despite its off-road focus, the TKC 80 retains handling suited to road use. It offers grip comparable to that of a road tyre, allowing confident riding during transitions between tarmac and tracks. This versatility makes it a suitable choice for riders seeking a balance between adventure, control and everyday use.
The TKC 80 benefits from a reinforced casing and an optimised manufacturing process to improve its resistance to the demands encountered off-road. Its reputation also rests on its use by many adventurers and on its approval during the GS Trophy, confirming its position as a reliable tyre for travel and demanding routes.

Very happy with the tyres. I’ve only ridden a little so far, but I think they were the best choice for my motorbike and my riding style.
This tyre is the same one that originally came fitted to my motorbike. In mixed conditions between road and off-road, going through rocky areas, and doing lots and lots of wheelies with it, I managed to get 6,000 km out of it. I recommend the TKC80 for the rear wheel to anyone who does proper trail riding. I would never recommend it for the front wheel, because after 8,000 km it still does not even seem worn, and that has consequences, such as not offering enough grip, even less so off-road — I am talking about the front. The rear TKC80 has good grip on the road, off-road and even in mud, and the knobs neither tear off nor break. The price on this website has been among the most competitive.
Great tyres, they fit very well.
I am pleasantly surprised by this tyre. Despite its knobby tread pattern, it offers excellent grip on the road. Off-road, it performs just as well. The mileage is okay for a soft tyre, and it will not make it past 4,000 for me.
Great knobbly tyre that also grips well on the road.
For my motorbike (CFMOTO MT 450), excellent. Good shopping experience. It was the first time I bought from the website, and I was satisfied. I recommend it.
Very good, versatile tyre for various surfaces. Long service life for the front tyre.
Very good tyre
Very good tyre for enduro riding, gravel roads, forest roads and asphalt.
Good tyre on and off road.
