Item Description

Michelin Bib Mousse Flat-Proof Competition Foam Tube

Originally designed and developed for the Dakar rally, the Michelin Bib Mousse has become known worldwide as the ultimate in flat prevention. Perfect for enduro, rally or motocross, the Bib Mousse foam insert provides not only piece of mind during the race or trail ride, but also outstanding traction and handling.
  • Made from a multi-cellular butyl material, replaces conventional tubes, providing a pressure equivalent of approximately 13 psi (0.9 bar)
  • Bib mousse may be used only with Michelin off-road tires, including StarCross MS2, StarCross MH2, S12, M12, H12, Enduro Comp III, EnduroStar, Baja and Desert
  • Each Bib Mousse includes a tube of Bib Mousse Fitting Gel. Be sure to follow installation instructions supplied with the product

**Note: Specifically designed for off-road competition use for speeds up to 80 mph (130 km/h). Above this speed, heat build-up can lead to rapid destruction of the Bib Mousse, resulting in serious injury to the rider. Under no circumstances should Bib Mousse be fitted to motorcycles for on-road use. Because Bib Mousse is shaped for a perfect fit inside these Michelin tires, use of Bib Mousse with other brands of tires can lead to handling instability and possible destruction of Bib Mousse

**Note: 90/100-21 fits Starcross HP4 only.

I have been using bib mousse for about 20 years. I never ever had a problem with them, what so ever front and back. Just got back from Mexico pre-running for the Baja 1000. No problems. Just a little pricy but well worth it. Just have to install them correctly.

I have used a Michelin-Bib Mousse in the front tire for 10 years. I would not off road any other way. No worry of flats and traction is greatly improved. It is like running a tube at about 10 to 12 pounds of pressure but with no risk of a flat. It will work with many brands of tires as long as they are the right size. No need to buy the Michelin tire if you do not want to. I have tried the Michelin-Bib-Mousse in the rear but have had a few problems. I ride in California and Mexico where we run some high speed sections. The rear Mousse will get hot if you run at high speeds for very long or run any pavement sections. When it gets hot the Mousse will expand and pop the bead of the tire. Never had a problem with the front at any speed, only with rear. I only run the Mousse in the front and I use a heavy duty tube in the rear. I rode all the way from Tecate to Cobo with no flats.

Great price, value and service

First time I’ve owned a set of Bibs. When you drive six hours to an Enduro the last thing you want is a DNF from a flat.

Excellent

I've been using bib mousses for a while now and it is an excellent option for all enduro riders. You can forget about running a flat tire in any king of road or track. Motorcycle Superstore has the best price you can find on Bib Mousses. Don’t waste your time looking in other places. You won’t find them cheaper!

If you truly ride off-road especially in Texas where thorns are the norm then this is the only way to ride. Worth every penny and never worry about flats. If you have never installed a BIB then you might want to have yours done. These are not for beginners.

Great quality mousse. Fills up the tire well and still maintains some feel. Very happy with this product and the price I paid for it though. Sometimes sizing is a little confusing if you are not currently running Michelin XC series tires but this mousse is working well with 110/100-18 Bridgestone, Dunlop, and Michelins.

We went to Baja again this year but this time we had installed the Mousse inserts from Michelin. With seven riders doing 1000 miles each and not one flat tire. Last year we had nine flat tires. Figuring each flat tire out in the middle of nowhere costs you one half hour to one hour in time wasted even the extra cost to have the mousse inserts now seems cheap. We will always ride with them. Thank you.
