Michelin Lithion 2 Folding Tire Red

The Michelin Lithion2 tire in red has a striking color with which you will stand out everywhere you go. It is a tire that adheres perfectly to the ground and provides you with an excellent grip so that you can ride with total safety and comfort, it is also made with a very resistant to punctures casing. The central part of the surface of the cover has a herringbone pattern made of silicon so that the grip with the asphalt is even greater.

In 1889 two brothers, Édouard Michelin and André Michelin, ran a rubber factory in Clermont-Ferrand, France. One day, a cyclist whose pneumatic rim needed repair showed up at the factory. They repaired his bike but he failed again after a few meters. Despite the setback, Édouard was enthusiastic about the pneumatic rim, and he and his brother worked on creating their own bicycle tire. In 1891 Michelin took out its first patent for a detachable bicycle tire.

The Michelin brand, of French origin, currently develops, manufactures and markets tires for all types of vehicles, from airplanes to cars, two-wheelers, civil engineering, subways, agriculture and trucks. We obviously focus on all the tires and tires for urban and road bikes that the brand has available.
