Re: Mousse sizing
Hi Mike
I use Maxxis ITs, same size as yours on the Husa (120/100/18) and I used the Michelin BIB Mousse 18 M18.
The M18 is made for 140 tyres, but the Maxxis 120's are virtually 140, so the fit is good. have a look at http://www.endurotyres.com/product/057337/ give them a call as they'll do discount for TRF members if you ask nicely!
As an alternative you can whack in the M02 rear mousse - this is the desert mousse and reports say they are a tad harder and will last longer - not used em myself, but was going to try them next time.
For the front, go with the BIB Mousse M15 or M16 (Desert).
Cheers
Derek
