Description
LAST BUY - Sadly one of THE BEST TIRES OF ALL TIME for electric motorcycles has been discontinued! Buy them before they are gone! In our opinion this is the best off-road 21" tire for ALL Electric Motorcycles because it has full MX traction with minimal weight. We are going to miss this amazing tire.
Charged Advice
At only 7.3lbs this is in the top 3 lightest tires we carry for 21". A Tusk T-35 front tire by contrast is a hefty 9.1 lbs. If you want one of the best performing light weight 21" tires on the market this is your ticket!
Once these are sold out check out the IRC IX-07S 21" tire, it's the same weight and the next best tire.
Details
The Michelin StarCross 5 Medium Terrain Tire is an excellent all-around tire for the track and trail, one that distinguishes itself with great performance and a couple pieces of new tire technology.Like other StarCross 5 tires, the Medium Terrain’s casing is made with high-density materials that actually reduces overall weight by 15%. Plus, the casing is made with Comfort Case Technology (CCT) that gives the tire a very plush feeling as you ride.
Topping everything off, Michelin gives the StarCross 5 Medium Terrain a tread pattern that grips firmly and slides predictably on a wide range of terrain. Large center blocks give straight line performance, numerous side lugs stick in while cornering, and the rubber compound manages to perform on most everything between loose loam and hard bedrock.
