After three years of rigorous testing by professionals and beginners alike on all materials in all kinds of weather, here you have an awesome tyre from Michelin. StarCross 5 is a new and revolutionary motocross tyre. It is a whole 15% lighter than previous models which are made using a higher-density rubber compound. As a result of this, the tyre is more flexible and thus provides significantly better grip which means that you can lean even deeper into the curves without compromising durability. Another plus of the flexible rubber compound is that you can have higher tyre pressure with the same comfort. This minimises the risk of impact on gravel and similar surfaces that can cause punctures and rim damage. Michelin StarCross 5 delivers the highest performance from the moment you release the clutch. The combination of the new rubber compound, the redesigned tread pattern and the new knobs together provide unbeatable steering ability and rear acceleration. Available in different rubber blends to suit different tracks. The “medium” model is ideal on soil, gravel and dirt tracks. Recommended tyre pressure: 1-1.2 bar (depending on surface).
