All-new Michelin Advanced and Descent bike tire lineup.

At the Eurobike trade show (cleanmpg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=24038) to be held September 2-5, Michelin will present a large number of new tires in its 2010 lineup.

The show will see the launch of the all-new MICHELIN Wild range for mountain bikes. Today, mountain biking is way for people to get away from it all, discover the outdoors and stretch their limits. From a simple ride in the woods to the most extreme sports, mountain biking covers an array of activities. Michelin will take advantage of the gigantic Eurobike show to unveil a complete range of tires equipped with the latest innovations: the MICHELIN Advanced and MICHELIN Descent, both of which integrate unique technologies. The tires are designed for different types of terrain and conditions of use.

The available colors are as interesting as the tires as well!
