MICHELIN Wild GripeR2 29 x 25.2 Advanced, GumX, TL-Ready

The Michelin Wild Grip'R Advanced Reinforced is an excellent tire for competitions. It is ideal for different substrates, it offers very good cornering grip and good directional control and is also designed for muddy XC trails.
Both the distribution and the shape of the central tread blocks have been optimized to achieve the ideal compromise between grip, efficiency and self-cleaning capability. In order to improve the stability of the tread blocks, these were reinforced at its base. Slats provide more grip, while the intermediate webs prevent a loss of rigidity of the tread block. For a constant and effective cornering grip height, distance and angle of inclination of the tread blocks on the tire shoulder are optimized. Additional cornering grip is generated by small steps in the profile block (edge effect). Small notches on the outer sides of the shoulder profile give this a double function: while responding flexibly to lighter load occurs at high loads, a blocking effect on, which prevents further bending and the associated loss of traction. The cornering grip of the tire remains constant up to the extreme limit.

advanced
The tires of the series "Advanced Technology" offer even better performance due to their characteristics: A special profile, a new rubber compound (GUM-X) and a new structure of the carcass (Reinforced Technology).

Michelin TS
Lightweight and flexible aramid collapsible cores
For his bicycle tire MICHELIN uses two types of collapsible cores: flexible and hard collapsible cores.
The flexible collapsible cores were invented by Michelin and developed and consist exclusively of aramid fibers, which are used for example in bullet-proof vests application.
This textile fiber is very resistant, at a very low weight, which can be saved per tire between 40 and 70 grams.
The road and mountain bike tires from Michelin high performance all have flexible collapsible cores.
