Michelin mtb Tires? Cam Zink commercial

[CBone]

Just saw the Cam Zink commercial again.
Does anyone run these??
I have never heard anything about them.

I have the wild enduros on one of my bikes and I like it a lot. It's like a maxxis double down, slightly lighter. Last I looked though I couldn't find them in in stock anywhere (wild enduros or the new AM ones) so I just bought more maxxis.

I needed to swap out the Maxxis Dissector that has a repaired sidewall so that I can run sealant for Palm Canyon (said sidewall tore at last year’s CNIDS Palm Canyon ride), and I finally got around to it tonight.

Enter the Michelin Wild AM…

29x2.35, Gum X3D, TL Ready.

Weighed 860 grams before sealant and measures 2.35 at the knobs and 2.4 at the carcass at 60psi.

I had this tire in the parts bin for almost 3 years, so the Michelin Man gets the nod for tomorrow. Sidewalls feel sturdy. Ima drop it down to 30 psi at Pine View Road and dial it in the field.

That's relatively light for how aggressive it looks

Cam Zink is in the hospital, so...


OK that was mean. His crash had nothing to do with his tires. Heal up quick, legend!
