  • Exceptional grip even in chilly conditions? Absolutely. Blame it on the Michelin Magi-X compound—it's basically magic for downhill races!

Gum-X Technology

Thanks to Michelin's Gum-X technology, enjoy robust rolling efficiency without compromising on grip. Because balance is everything, and this is one tightrope walk we support!

Bead to Bead Shield Technology

With high-density cross-laid reinforcement, say goodbye to worries about durability. The entire tyre casing is fortified, ensuring your adventures aren’t interrupted by pesky punctures!

Pinch Protection

Extra reinforcement above the bead absorbs energy on pinch impacts, giving you that extra layer of freedom to tackle the toughest trails without a second thought.

Tubeless Ready

Your Michelin DH16 tyre can be easily mounted tubeless with the right configuration:

  • Use a tubeless UST or compatible rim
  • Stay within the maximum pressure stated on the sidewall
  • Don’t forget the sealant!
  • Always check tyre pressure before set-off
