The Michelin Trial Light front tire is engineered for trials competition and demanding off-road riding. Designed for motorcycles using an 80/100-21 tire size with a 51M rating, this Michelin competition tire delivers dependable control across obstacles, rocks, tight turns, and technical terrain. Its specialized casing supports the precise handling and traction required by trials riders while maintaining a responsive feel at low air pressures.
The maximized contact patch casing helps place more tread in contact with the riding surface for improved grip and control. Michelin’s updated casing design enhances lateral stability in corners compared with earlier Michelin Trials tires, helping riders maintain a predictable line during slow-speed maneuvers and challenging sections. The flexible tread area conforms to uneven terrain and helps absorb impacts from obstacles, contributing to better traction and a more controlled ride.
The Trial Light is compatible with low-pressure trials settings, with a recommended front pressure of 6 psi for trials use. Riders should follow motorcycle, wheel, and event-specific guidance when selecting final tire pressure. This front tire is intended for competition-focused applications where obstacle grip, balance, and precise steering response are essential. The tire brand is Michelin, the tire model is Trial Light, and the manufacturer part number and vendor part number are both 22827.
