Tire for two-wheeled vehicle comprising a hybrid hooping reinforcement

A tire, for two-wheeled vehicles, comprising a crown, two sidewalls, two beads, each sidewall connecting each bead to the crown, a carcass reinforcement arranged radially on an inside of the crown, the carcass reinforcement comprising at least one carcass ply that is anchored in each of the beads and extends in the sidewalls, wherein the crown comprises:

• a tread;
• and
• a hoop reinforcement extending in the crown in a circumferential direction of the tire, the hoop reinforcement comprising at least one hooping ply comprising one or more hoop reinforcing elements, each hoop reinforcing element forming an angle strictly less than 10° with the circumferential direction of the tire,
• wherein the force at break of the at least one hooping ply ranges from 360 to 630 daN/cm,
• wherein each hoop reinforcing element comprises an assembly made up:
• of a multifilament strand of aromatic polyamide or aromatic copolyamide, and
• of a multifilament strand of aliphatic polyamide,
• wherein the two multifilament strands are wound in a helix around one another and each hoop reinforcing element is twist-balanced, the twist factor K of each hoop reinforcing element ranging from 5.5 to 6.5 with K being defined by the formula:
• K=(R×Ti1/2)/957,
• in which R is a twist of a given hoop reinforcing element expressed in turns per meter and Ti is a sum of counts of the multifilament strands of the given hoop reinforcing element in tex,
• wherein a density of each hoop reinforcing element in the hooping ply ranges from 85 to 95 hoop reinforcing elements per decimeter of hooping ply,
• wherein the force at break of each hoop reinforcing element ranges from 40 to 70 daN,
• wherein the hoop reinforcement is radially interposed between the carcass reinforcement and the tread, extends axially across median plane M and has width LF that is smaller than a total thread width 2S, and is directly in contact with the tread and the carcass reinforcement over its entire width, and
• wherein the tire is obtained by a method comprising a step of manufacturing the hooping ply, in which the one or more hoop reinforcing elements are embedded in a polymer composition in order to form an uncured hooping ply, an equivalent initial tensile modulus of the uncured hooping ply ranging from 330 to 620 cN/tex/dm.
