I think they are a similar size , don't know why but different manufacturers size their tyres differently so a 140 michy and a 120 of a different breed would actually be the same size........sparks is the expert on hoop sizes he'll tell you
Or I'm talking out of my hoop and you were riding around with the equivalent of 100psi in your hoop

Mich mousses are big
now there mx tyres are smaller than other makes for some reason
lucky the mitas is quite large for a 120
I fitted 2 new mich mousses this week for one of the boys and forgot how big a new mousse was

You got the same problem as me dai, too many lazy (or thick) mates

Apologies for moving away from the original post

But while on the subject, what's considered the best method of doing your own mousses?
Buy a mousse changing gadget (possibly like the Radaconda) or get loads of good levers and simply learn the best technique

Just remind juls how handsome he is .job done

It would be worth lying about his good looks and being called thick and lazy to get them done if i lived as close to him as you do

Have now found a gadget sold by Steve Plain for 130 quid that looks OK, and will go with that unless anything better crops up

There's one on 24mx for £54
