The Michelin Enduro Medium 2 improves on its predecessor with a new tread pattern using V-shaped blocks and updated carbon black compound, adding a claimed 20% more grip when new and 12% more when worn, according to Michelin's internal testing. It's designed to handle soft-to-hard terrain and mud-to-dry conditions without needing a tire swap between them, and the casing is tuned for a smoother, more precise feel on hard ground. This 18-inch-rim rear, rated 70M, pairs well with a Michelin Bib mousse for enduro riders covering varied terrain.
