Does anyone know if I can find Michelin Bi-Axial tires in the U.S.?? I found out Michelin no longer sells them here and I REALLY want some! I checked on Ebay, but none there either. If somebody knows of someone who has any, could you email me directly please? Thank you.

Try "Google" and keep watching E-Bay. I've seen bike stuff that was discontinued fifteen years ago show up when some bike shop was cleaning out the attic.

But, also take a look at Michelin's current line of tires. Companies are more likely to rename a successful design than to actually discontinue it. My guess is that Michelin's 2007 lineup includes a tire that is a good match for your needs, even if the "name" seems unfamilar.
