Making a welcome return for 2019 are the famous green Michelin cyclocross tyres that I am sure many of you out there will remember. Pretty sure that they were discontinued in 2002. But you do see them make an appearance from time to time as it would appear riders have stashed them away, including Wout Van Aert who won on the green tread at the 2017 world champs.

There will be two different tread patterns available, the Mud for mud, and Jet for dryer conditions. And will be in tubular and clincher versions. You’re gonna have to wait though, as they aren’t set for release until August/September time...

Right… some serious new bling now.
Tech this out.

This is the new version 2.0 SLF Motion hyper speed oversized hyper speed system. It’s made from carbon.
Looks incredible. 14/18T wheel combo claimed to reduce drive train friction. It’s Compatible with 32t cassettes, has multiple spring tension settings, is lighter and stiffer than before
AND looks incredible!
