The Michelin Bib Mousse™ is the ultimate foam-based solution for off-road riders, designed to eliminate the risk of punctures and pinch flats during competition. Originally invented by Michelin for Cross Country, Rally, Enduro, and Motocross use, this innovative technology replaces traditional inner tubes with a specialized foam insert that provides consistent performance under the most demanding conditions.
Engineered for high-performance handling and grip, the Bib Mousse™ is significantly lighter than Ultra Heavy Duty (UHD) inner tubes. Depending on the specific variant selected, it provides a pressure equivalence ranging from 0.6 bar to 0.9 bar (8.7 psi to 13 psi), ensuring your motorcycle maintains optimum traction across various terrains. It is specifically conceived to fit perfectly inside Michelin off-road tires for maximum robustness and longevity.
Technical Specifications and Compliance:
- Designed exclusively for off-road competition use.
- Under no circumstances should Bib Mousse™ be fitted to motorcycles for on-road use; it is not street legal.
- Maximum recommended speed: 80 mph (130 km/h).
- Should only be used in conjunction with MICHELIN® off-road competition tires.
- Lifespan: Up to six months from the date of first fitting, though this may be significantly reduced with intensive use.
For optimum durability and performance, always use Michelin Bib Mousse™ gel when fitting. The specialized lubricant keeps the insert cooler during operation, reducing friction and extending the life of the product. Whether you are tackling extreme enduro trails or fast-paced motocross tracks, the Michelin Bib Mousse™ ensures you stay in the race without the worry of a flat tire.
