Ultimate Tire Setup for Hard Enduro - Inside Enduro 

James is a Tank

Tubliss is the best for traction but a drilled Michelin is the ultimate for reliability. I run drilled bibs on my hard enduro race bike then on my play bike I run tubliss. -Matt

Thanks brother!!!

Not at all. Drilling the bib helps tailor them to our specific riding.

We can't wait to see who wins that bike!!!! Good luck!

@@InsideEnduro I hope it’s me. 2 tickets a week until it’s over lol. I fucked up and rode a 21 Sherco a while back (smart carbed) for hours 13-18 on the bike. I absolutely loved it. They got their counterbalanced motor right man. I like the engine characteristics on the Sherco better than my 300xc tpi. Don’t get me wrong the Ktm is a great bike, but there was something about that Sherco dude. Not to mention it comes stock with a lot more shit to make it “Ready to Race” idk I just wanna go Sherco lol

This video is an instructional about how to drill the rear mousse. But you are correct, the front tire is VERY important. You do not drill the front mousse...it's function is very different to that of the rear tire. The rear tire's job is traction, which is why you need to adjust the PSI to meet your needs. We really like the Michelin mousses due to their consistent size and how they fit in the Michelin Enduro tires. Yes, the Michelin Enduro Xtrem rear tire is still the best out there (if you can find one), and the Michelin Enduro Medium Terrain Tire is the best front tire that we've tried (so far). If you have any questions, please post them here, or email admin@insideenduro.com.

We mainly run the Michelin medium front stuffed with M15. That sucks you have experienced inconsistent sizing because we have been luck thus-far.

I would go with some type of gummy tire with either tubliss or a soft bib.

Glad you like them! More on the way

Depends how fast you want to go on road. Full knobby tires can get a little sketch. That being said, on my dual sport I run enduro tires because I care more about dirt performance. Shinko 505 is a decent option...anything that is cheap and has decent wear. Quite a few tires are not DOT approved tho

No, just arrows

Big dawg 140!

Totally depends. I have a bib with over 200 hours that is mangled but works great. I'd say with normal use expect at least 3-4 tires. If you run gummy tires and make sure to lube the mousse every tire change bibs can last for years. On the contrary, if you run a hard tire at high speeds until the tire basically falls off I have seen bibs literally disintegrate. All depends on application.

@@InsideEnduro is this the case with a drilled out mousse as well? Or does drilling it out decrease the life splan of the mousse running it under identical conditions as a non-drilled mousse. Thanks

Yes! Bib in the front with zero holes

If you go to insideenduro.com/products/1-25-mousse-drill and scroll down the page you'll see the most current instructions. There is a list of some of the recommended Mousse/Tire combinations on this document.

Hi Mark! This is Rosemary with Inside Enduro. Thanks for the kind comments...I passed them on to James. He was using an 18 inch rim for that video. Cheers! Rosemary

Yes I was asking how wide the rim was that he was installing a 140/80-18 on. Especially with the moose.

Awesome. Thank you so much for the info 🤘🏻

OHHHHH Yeah!!! I lusted over the 500's we had in - Matt

Fake news. New technology in bibs is just snake oil. Bibs have not changed since we begun using them.
