Zusammenfassung: | The invention relates to a tyre comprising a pair of flexible bead cores (50) and having a reduced weight. Inside each bead, the bead core (51) has the shape of a closed circumferential ring, and secures the bead of the tyre (1) onto the wheel rim (100) and comprises a first part consisting of a first material M1 taking the form of textile cords (560), said first part engaging with a second part of the bead core consisting of a second, reinforcement material M2. The tensile stiffness of the bead core (51) is between 4.5 x 105 N/m and 1.8 x 106 N/m; the circumferential bending stiffness of the bead core (51), Kf, is no less than Kr * (1000*D / (16*25.4))3, where D is the diameter of the wheel receiving the tyre as measured at the seat (110) of the wheel rim (100) in metres, and where Kr is equal to 2.10-2 Nm2; and the elastic elongation of the bead core (51) is no less than 2%. |
