Originally inspired by a stack of tires, the white mascot was intended to show that Michelin tires can absorb any obstacle without any problems. As one of the largest tire manufacturers in the world, the French company can draw on the know-how and experience gained in many different fields. Michelin not only puts tires on bicycles, motorcycles, cars, trucks and agricultural machinery, but also airplanes and space shuttles all over the world. It all began with the invention of the first demountable bicycle tire in 1891, followed by numerous other milestones, such as the introduction of the first folding tire in 1979 or the premiere of the tubeless mountain bike tire in 1999. Close cooperations with professional cycling or Formula 1 ensures that the rubber experts from Clermont-Ferrand offer only absolutely reliable and high-performing tires and inner tubes for MTBs, road bikes, gravel and city bikes that meet the highest technological and visual demands.
