Description
If you love the feel and traction of a trials tire, the Michelin Trial X Light Tire is a great choice as it focuses and improves on everything a trial tire should be. Micheline has reduced the tire's overall weight by more than a pound but at the same time they've stiffened up the sidewalls and made the tread area more flexible. That means the Trial X Light is easier to maneuver, great a t maximizing the contact patch, and has more stability on the rim and when cornering. So if you're willing to move a step in price, you'll be rewarded with an exceptionally grippy tire that's great at finding traction in slow, technical terrain.
