I mounted BIB MOUSSE (Foams)from Michelin F and rear 3 months ago…
I have the impression that the “feeling” is much different ..
My dealer told me that the first rides are harsh but after the BIB will “deflate” , become softer after a while..
I went down 3 or 4 times and can not find my marks … gyroscopic effect??
Your opinions pls.

I'm not sure what you are saying - they do become softer. To me thay start out feeling like they have about 14lbs pressure and when they are worn out feel about 8 lbs. It does take a while to become softer - RIDE MORE !

Just look on the ground where your body hit
and you'll find your "marks".

quote from Super Hunky:
"# I personally think they take much of the pleasure out of riding the bike. The feel is sluggish in normal terrain and downright spooky on hard- packed dirt roads."
