A pneumatic tire includes an inner-side cross belt and an outer-side cross belt forming belt angles of mutually different signs with the tire circumferential direction with absolute values from 46 to 80, inclusive; a circumferential reinforcing layer arranged between the inner-side cross belt and the outer-side cross belt and forming a belt angle of 5 with the tire circumferential direction; and a supplemental belt arranged outside the outer-side cross belt in the radial direction of the tire and forming a belt angle with the tire circumferential direction with an absolute value between 10 and 45 inclusive.

The invention relates to a bicycle tyre. A puncture-resistant fibre layer (4) having a plurality of polymer, parallel running tyre reinforcing elements (12) is arranged between the tyre tread (2) and the tyre carcass. Said reinforcing elements (12) are arranged at an angle of between approximately 80 and 110 degrees with respect to the peripheral direction (13) of the bicycle tyre.

In a pneumatic tire, a belt layer includes an inner-side cross belt and an outer-side cross belt having an absolute value of belt angle with respect to a tire circumferential direction of not less than 46 degrees and not more than 80 degrees and having belt angles with signs that are opposite to each other; and a circumferential reinforcing layer having a belt angle with respect to the tire circumferential direction within the range of 5 degrees and disposed between the inner-side cross belt and outer-side cross belt. Also, a distance Gcc on a tire equatorial plane from a tread profile to a tire inner circumferential surface and a distance Gsh from a tread edge to the tire inner circumferential surface satisfy a relationship 1.10Gsh/Gcc.

A belt layer of a pneumatic tire includes an inner-side cross belt and an outer-side cross belt forming belt angles of mutually different signs with the tire circumferential direction with absolute values from 46 to 80, inclusive; a circumferential reinforcing layer arranged between the inner-side cross belt and the outer-side cross belt and forming a belt angle of within 5 with the tire circumferential direction; and a supplemental belt arranged inside of the inner-side cross belt in the radial direction of the tire and forming a belt angle with the tire circumferential direction with an absolute value from 10 to 45, inclusive.

A motorcycle tire includes a tread portion, sidewall portions, bead portions each with a bead core therein, a carcass, and a tread reinforcing layer arranged radially outwardly of the carcass and includes a belt layer and a band layer. The belt layer includes an inner belt ply and an outer belt ply. The band layer includes a band ply arranged between the inner and outer belt plies. The inner belt ply includes belt cords oriented at an angle greater than 5 degrees to the tire circumferential direction and a first development width. The outer belt ply includes belt cords oriented at an angle greater than 5 degrees to the tire circumferential direction and a second development width. The band ply includes band cords oriented at an angle not more than 5 degrees to the tire circumferential direction. The second development width is greater than the first development width.

To reduce noise while suppressing increase in rolling resistance, without affecting the formation of a carcass line, provided is a pneumatic tire (10) including: a carcass (13); an inclined belt (14), and an inner liner (17). The inclined belt (14) is disposed on the tire radial outer side of the crown portion of the carcass (13). The inclined belt (14) includes at least one inclined belt layer (16). The inclined belt layer (16) has cords extending as being inclined at 35 or more with respect to the tire circumferential direction. The inner liner (17) has a thickness of 1.5 mm or more at least in part of a side portion (19).

A pneumatic tire has a belt layer between a carcass and a tread portion. The belt layer has first and second main working belts, and a reinforcement belt. A cord angle of the reinforcement belt is not smaller than 6 degrees and not larger than 9 degrees and width thereof is equal to or wider than 50% of a tire-section width and not wider than either narrower one of the first and second main working belts. In a state where the pneumatic tire is mounted on a predetermined rim and filled with a minute internal pressure with no load applied, an arc passing points on both maximum width positions and a point on a tire equatorial plane of the reinforcement belt, in meridian section, has a radius of curvature of not smaller than 2500 mm. A total thickness T.sub.CE and T.sub.SH satisfy a relationship of 1.05T.sub.SHT.sub.CE1.35T.sub.SH.

A belt layer includes first and second main working belts and a reinforcement belt. A cord angle of the reinforcement belt is 6 to 9 degrees. A width of the reinforcement belt is equal to or wider than 50% of a tire-section width and not wider than a width of a narrower one of the first and second main working belts. When an intersection of the perpendicular line extending from a groove bottom center of a shoulder main groove to the reinforcement belt and an upper surface of the reinforcement belt is set as an origin, a ratio of a dimension from the origin to an end portion of the reinforcement belt to a half width of the reinforcement belt is not smaller than 0.07 and not larger than 0.11.

A method of manufacturing a pneumatic tire comprising a belt which is wound with a belt-under diameter D outside a carcass ply in a tire-radial direction, includes preparing a strip-like rubber-coated cord member where a plurality of belt cords which are arranged approximately parallel are coated with rubber and a width of the cord member in a lateral direction is D sin . The cord member is cut at the cord angle with respect to a longitudinal direction to cut out a belt forming member having a parallelogram which includes circumferential direction sides extending in a tire circumferential direction in a wound state and formed as cut portions and inclined sides extending parallel to the belt cord and defined as both side portions of the cord member. The belt forming member is wound into a circular cylindrical shape and joined the inclined sides which face each other to each other.

A method of manufacturing a pneumatic tire includes preparing a belt forming member formed of belt cords arranged parallel and covered with rubber. In a development state, the belt forming member is formed into a parallelogram, so that in a state wound with the belt cords extending in a direction inclined at a cord angle , the belt forming member is formed into a circular cylindrical configuration where a belt-under diameter D is not smaller than 940 mm and not larger than 960 mm and a belt width W is not smaller than 270 mm and not larger than 310 mm, and the cord angle , the belt-under diameter D and the belt width W satisfy a relationship of 0.577 DW/tan<1.07D. The belt forming member is wound and joined at a joint portion where the inclined sides are brought into contact with each other.
