Michelin Wild AM2
Best durable choice for aggressive trail riders seeking maximum grip.
This is the tire for riders who prioritize aggressive cornering bite over pure rolling speed. It strikes a rare balance between a lightweight feel and the rugged casing needed to survive technical, gravity-fed descents. You sacrifice a bit of efficiency on the climbs, but you gain immense confidence when the trail gets loose and unpredictable.
