The MICHELIN FORCE AM² is designed as a fast-rolling tyre optimised for mixed terrain, hard-pack or trail centre conditions. It has a directional tread pattern designed for excellent rolling efficiency, but which also offers high grip levels under braking and in corners. The tread features elongated centre blocks for reduced rolling resistance and less ground penetration, but with prominent block edges for braking grip and traction. The shoulder blocks are inspired by the MICHELIN DH22 tyre and these ensure grip and stability in corners, along with progressive and predictable handling characteristics. In addition, an optimized ratio between tread blocks and grooves helps maintain momentum on flowing trails.
The rubber compounds and casings of these tyres were previously tested in top-level Enduro racing and have been designed to offer the optimal balance between grip, rolling efficiency, longevity, weight and damage resistance. The dual-compound GUM-X Technology features a harder centre area for optimum rolling efficiency and tyre life, combined with softer rubber on the shoulders for cornering grip. The Gravity Shield Technology casing uses a bead-to-bead high-density fibre for increased resistance to impact damage, sidewall cuts and punctures, coupled with a 3x60 TPI casing for stiffness and stability, while still maintaining good comfort levels.

RECYCLE YOUR OLD TYRES WITH STIF AND VELORIM
As cyclists we often get a free pass when it comes to being green... What could be better for the environment than riding your bike, right!? Well, it turns out over 44,000 tonnes of old tyres and inner tube are going into landfill each year. We're stoked to join a grassroots scheme being overseen by Velorim to recycle and reprocess your old tyres and tubes to ensure zero waste landfill, zero waste incinerated and zero waste exported. You can read more about their work here
To dispose of your old tyres and tubes, simply drop them into either of our stores. We'll have them recycled for free if you're buying a replacement from us, otherwise there is a small fee (60p per tyre, 25p per tube) to help with the costs of collecting and processing.
