The Michelin City Grip 2 is a premium rear scooter tire designed for dependable performance in everyday urban riding and changing weather conditions. This 140/70-12 tire carries a 65S load and speed rating, providing a balanced combination of handling, stability, and durability for compatible scooters. Michelin developed the City Grip 2 to deliver confident traction across wet, slippery, and dry road surfaces while supporting the practical demands of commuting and recreational riding.
The silica-based compound and shark tooth sipes help enhance grip on wet roads, giving riders improved confidence during rain and other challenging conditions. In Michelin testing, City Grip 2 tires delivered faster wet-track lap times and shorter wet braking distances than the compared Pirelli Angel Scooter tires under the stated test conditions. Actual on-road results may vary depending on the scooter, road, weather, riding style, and tire maintenance. The reinforced construction is designed to support reliable service and long-term performance.

The model has been selected by leading scooter manufacturers for numerous original-equipment applications, including select Peugeot Metropolis 400, Piaggio Beverly 300, Beverly 400, Sprint, Primavera, and Yamaha X-Max 125 and X-Max 300 models.
