Michelin E-Wild Rear Tire

This tire is specifically engineered for the rear wheel of an e-MTB, focusing on traction for climbing and handling the high torque output of electric motors. While you could technically mount it on the front, the tread pattern is optimized for rear-wheel performance; for the front, you would be better served by a tire designed with steering and cornering grip in mind.

The Magi-X compound is designed for maximum grip, which typically means a softer rubber that provides excellent traction on technical terrain. While it offers superior control, you should expect it to wear faster than a harder, cross-country focused compound, especially given the extra weight and torque of an e-bike.

Yes, this is a tubeless-ready tire, but it is fully compatible with standard inner tubes. If you prefer to run it tubeless, you will need to use tubeless-compatible rim tape and sealant to take full advantage of the puncture resistance and lower pressure capabilities.

The 2.6-inch width provides a substantial contact patch that excels in loose, technical terrain by offering a stable platform for climbing. It balances float and grip well, though if you frequently ride in deep, thick mud, you might find a narrower tire clears debris more effectively.

Absolutely. The folding bead construction is designed to save weight without sacrificing structural integrity, making it a standard choice for modern enduro and trail tires. It is built to hold securely on the rim even under the high-stress loads typical of aggressive e-MTB riding.
