Description Michelin Starcross 6 Medium Soft
The Michelin Starcross 6 Medium Soft motorcycle tire is one of four versions of the model for enduro use. It is designed for use on mixed and soft terrain surfaces. In such conditions, it stands out for its confident grip, ability to accelerate and brake intensively, and increased rideability.
When accelerating longitudinally, the tire demonstrates high stability. This is due to the presence of large blocks with elongated transverse edges in the central part of the tread pattern. In turns, the confident behavior is fully preserved. The blocks on the edges of the tread are arranged in a "chessboard" order and have a pointed profile, which increases the pressure on the surface. It's also worth noting the use of a rubber compound not with carbon black, like most other brands' tires, but with "silica". This component gives the tread elasticity, which improves the comfort of handling the bike on rough terrain, and also increases the rideability of the tire due to improved wear resistance.
Key features of Michelin Starcross 6 Medium Soft
- stability during acceleration and braking due to the large size and elongated transverse edges of the blocks in the central part;
- high stability in turns is provided by the arrangement of the blocks and their profile, which increases the pressure on the ground;
- the rubber compound with silicon dioxide in the composition gives the tread elasticity and resistance to abrasive wear.
