MICHELIN FOCUSES ON THE ROAD AHEAD
The pandemic has affected the world like never before in all areas of life. Unfortunately, like so many mighty manufacturers supplying global markets, Michelin also encountered production disruption, ultimately affecting consumers. As the door to the 2022 motorcycle trials calendar opens, this situation has been exacerbated.
Limited supplies of Michelin trials tyres could continue into 2023. However, Michelin is working hard to address issues through its supply chains focusing efforts in vital areas. For the interim, Michelin would like to thank their dealer network, the UK trials importers, teams and riders for their understanding and loyalty to the brand as they pursue solutions. Michelin will continue to support as much as possible, including events, such as the successful radio station coverage at the iconic Scottish Six Days Trial in May and the ACU British Trials Championship.
Using Michelin tyres, James Dabill (Beta-GBR) won the 2019 SSDT, where he will be returning to defend his title. Respecting Covid-19 restrictions, Toni Bou (Repsol Honda-ESP) won the 2021 FIM TrialGP and FIM X-Trial World Championships, hitting the magic 30 in total.
Endorsed by two top riders, James Dabill and Toni Bou, Michelin will continue to focus on the future with continued success on a global scale and gaining customer confidence with its excellent range of products. One thing is for sure in the world of motorcycle trials, Michelin will continue to give the rider the ultimate tyre suitable for winning in all riding conditions
