Known as the EF07 ‘super soft’ double, this extreme tyre great for hard enduro when traction is needed most! It has a soft carcass and soft knobbles. This is a go-to tyres for many extreme races. It is particularly good on wet greasy rocks. Your mousse choice is a game changer with this tyre – so choose carefully depending on the footprint that you want.
However if you need the tyre to last longer, choose the Mitas EF 07 Single Green (aka super light) which is still an extreme tyre but not as soft as the double green.
BEST MOUSSE OPTIONS:
MEFO MOM 18-1EX is the ultimate mousse partner for this tyre for a balance of super traction and longevity. (It will need a ride or two to bed in before you use it for an extreme race – but then it will be awesome).
MEFO MOM 18-0EX for out of the box immediate traction. (Won’t last as long as any of the other options but traction is AMAZING!)
MEFO MOM 18-0 for out of the box immediate traction. (This will last longer than the MEFO MOM 18-0EX as it is not an extreme compound but is small in size so will give a similar feel).
MEFO MOM 18-1 or Mitas 120 Standard for those faster races that still need a soft compound tyre. This is a long-lasting combo!
Don’t forget to use a double rim lock for all of the above compounds (apart from the MEFO MOM 18-1 which is fine with a single).
Top tip: If you are a bigger rider it’s useful to go for the harder/larger of the options, if you are a smaller rider or want to rider the techy stuff all the time, go one of the extreme or smaller mousse options above.
