MITAS — frequently asked questions
Common questions, straight answers. No fluff.
- They code the compound and carcass. Red is standard motocross. Yellow is enduro. Green is a soft compound for extreme enduro. Double green is the ultra-soft, built for the most technical going.
- Go green for technical events. Wet rock, roots, steep climbs. The rubber is softer and stickier than the yellow, so it hooks up in the slow stuff where grip is everything. It pays for that on the fast bits. Green wears quickly on hard-pack and fire roads. If your day has a lot of road miles or fast trail between sections, the yellow stripe lasts longer and costs you less per ride. Match the stripe to where you actually spend the throttle.
- On a heavy 450 at speed it can feel vague. The carcass is very pliable. Keep it for lightweight two-strokes picking through extreme technical terrain.
- Yes. They take tubes fine. The softest compounds come alive on a mousse, which lets you run very low pressures without spinning the tyre on the rim or risking a flat.
- Soft compounds work by deforming over rock and root to grow the contact patch. Run them hard and you kill that. The knobs stay rigid and the sticky rubber never gets to wrap anything. Extreme enduro riders drop as low as 6psi on a mousse or Tubliss to let the tyre fold around obstacles. The trade-off is rim and carcass damage on fast, rocky ground at those pressures. Pick your number for the terrain, not the spec sheet.
- Fit one. Even the enduro compound makes enough grip to spin on the rim if you get aggressive with the throttle at lower pressures.
