General indications
We thank you for buying the 988 Wheels, a product that will
guarantee you security and functionality through the years.
They have been designed to be fitted with Tubeless ready and
clincher tyre for use only on MTB bicycles for competition (do
not use them for downhill, freestyle, acrobatic, four-cross or any
extreme off-road riding).
Before proceeding with using the wheels, please read carefully the
following instruction and store them in a safe place for eventually
reusing.
Fac Michelin reserves to modify the content of this manual without
notice. The update version will always be available www.miche.it.

Attention
Any modification or alteration (also graphic) of the
product with non-original spare parts or spare parts
not delivered directly by Fac di Michelin, involves the
expiration of the guarantee.
Warning
In case of strange impact caused from bad road base or
wheels transport, we trust to bring the wheels to your
mechanic for a check.
Warning
• Check for proper operation and state of wear of all the
components before starting to ride.
• 977 wheel set could have rim with different dimension, for which
each model needs its
type of tire:

• Check the condition and pressure of the tires fitted to your Miche
wheels. Pressure must not exceed the limit of 3bar and

43psi signed behind valve hole. The inflating pressure of the
tyres must NOT exceed the LOWER pressure level between the
maximum pressure stated by the tyre manufacturer.
Excessive tire pressure reduces the grip of the tire on the road and
increases the risk that the tire will unexpectedly burst.
Inflation pressure that is too low reduces tire performance and
increases the probability of sudden and unexpected loss of tire
pressure. In addition, premature damage to the rim may occur.
The minimum pressure must be equal to 1.8 bar or 26 psi. The
minimum pressure of inflation should NOT ever be below the
HIGHER level between the value of the minimum pressure specified
by the manufacturer of the tire and the one recommended by the
manufacturer of the rim. Incorrect tire pressure could cause
tire failure or loss of control of the bicycle, resulting in an
accident, personal injury or death.
• Check that the wheels are firmly anchored to the frame with the
locking item closed in the correct position (Fig. 9). If there is the
passing through pin, consult the installation instructions provided
by the manufacturer of the bicycle or fork.
Attention, an incorrect locking may cause the detachment
of the wheel and derive in accidents and serious or fatal
injuries.
• Check the tension of the spokes so as to notice any spokes
which got loose. In the case spokes are loose, contact a qualified
mechanic or special personnel to perform the tensioning.
Attention, the use of wheels not centered properly or
with spokes broken and/or loosen or damaged may
cause an accident, serious injury or death.
• Check that the braking system and the brake pads in the brake
calipers are in good state and that the screws on the disc or the
locking ring of the disc, depending on your model, are properly
locked.
• To the users of more than 78kg weight, Fac Michelin suggests
to check the wheels status to the mechanic every two months or
every 500km.
• Never wash the pieces with pressure-fed water because water
may get through the seals and cause permanent damage to the
internal components. We recommend washing components with a
sponge, mild soap, and water.
• Salt water environments (as found on winter roads and neat the
seaside) can cause galvanic corrosion on most bike parts. Carefully
rinse, clean, dry and re-lubricate all exposed parts to avoid damage,
malfunctions and accidents.
