    The Apticote 2000 Advantage

    • Extended cylinder life – Ultra-wear resistant with a slicker, harder coating that’s better bonded to the substrate
    • Higher performance – Even in the most demanding race conditions, from karts and off-roaders to GP bikes
    • Superior oil retention – When you need it most, right up to and over 18,000 rpm, with improved resistance to scuffing
    • Reduced friction – Between cylinder wall and piston ring, plus better surface lubricant retention
    • Improved power – Delivering extra race-winning power over original supply or steel sleeves
