Michelin forges stronger ties for its 2018 - Mountain bike programme

In 2018, Michelin will be able to count on an even higher number of the world class riders to boost its chances in the different mountain bike competitions in which it is active, from Enduro and Cross Country to Freeriding. Michelin’s development activities and innovations have always been guided by the needs of top athletes and speci c tyres will consequently be available for each discipline, with the riders themselves actively involved in future development work.

The 2017 Enduro world champion Sam HILL has joined Michelin’s ranks after being won over by the performance of the French rm’s Enduro tyres which helped Adrien DAILLY and Jérôme CLEMENTZ to clinch second and fourth places in last season’s Enduro World Series, not to mention Karim AMOUR’s victory in the Men Master class. These three riders have all renewed their con dence in Michelin for 2018.

The tyres they used and tested at the highest level in 2017 have been on general sale since January as part of the new MICHELIN WILD ENDURO range.

In the world of Cross Country competition, Julien ABSALON has joined forces with Michelin. Winner of two Olympic gold medals and ve world crowns, the French star will bene t from the most competitive tyres and technical backing as he bids to add to his exceptional winning record.
