MichelinPro4 Endurance Tire(Return to Product Page)

Based on the mfr's recommendation for my new medium-depth carbon clincher wheelset, I bought the Pro4 Endurance 25mm tires. With over 1500km on them, including mileage on still winter littered roads, I am impressed that there are no cuts, and there's only insignificant wear and that only on the rear tire. I've done several road races and criteriums on them and have been pleased with their ride quality & cornering (both dry & wet). Paired with the wider rim, the combination is as aero as a deeper (56mm) carbon tubular wheelset with 23mm tires that I use primarily for climbing races (lighter weight)..

I've been riding Krylion, Krylion Carbon, Krylion II, and now Pro 4 endurance tires for years. I've never been disappointed about their puncture resistance or their milage claims. Great all round tires.

Have been using these since they came out and regularly get 3000+ miles without flats. On my seventh set. Easy to install, don't need irons to get on. I use 25mm they are smooth, comfortable, and fast, cornering much better than other endurance tires I tried. These are all I use and now put them on my wife and daughters bikes.

Only a few hundred miles of road on them so far, but they are smooth riding with plenty of grip. I like the soft rubber to improve grip, although I suspect they won't wear as well as the harder variety. I'll take the safety, especially with wet leaves coming our way here in New England.

These tires are easy to mount, supple and very responsive, first rate.

This is my go to tire for daily training and long european tours. For me (190) it seems to be the perfect combination of weight, durability and stickiness in both dry and wet. My home roads have loads of basalt chips that just eat other tires. I can ride these over the occasional gravel section to connect a loop without worrying that they will get shredded. Yet they are light enough and supple enough to handle well and feel good. I go through about two rear tires a year and one front... typically change the rear when I put on a new chain... that is about 2,500 miles. They could go longer but my experience on our local roads is that once you see the profile go from rounded to about a 14 (5mm) flat spot then I might get a flat.

Got 2 riding seasons out of the rear tire. One flat, due to a freshly chip-sealed county road! They were chip sealing that day and a sharp shard of rock penetrated to the tube. After that got numerous miles out of the tire.At least 5000 miles total! Finally decided to change it this Fall when the roads got wet and the debris started adhering to the rubber. Great tire!

Great tires, I wouldn't buy any others. I had a set of Gator Skins and had a flat every time I went out. I've ridden over 2000 miles on my latest set with only one or two flats. They are smooth, quick and a reliable ride!

These tires are reasonably tough and long wearing with very good handling and ride quality. The 25c tires that I most recently received (all black version) are noticeably and measurably narrower than older 25c Pro4 Endurance tires that I've had (blackgrey version). The old ones measured 27mm when mounted on a CXP-33, and 27.5mm on a Velocity Dyad. The new ones (purchased Dec. '14) measure 25.1mm on a CXP-33.

I am getting about 1500 solid miles on these tires. I tend to replace when I feel I might start getting flats and definitely before any serious signs of tread wear.

This tire stands up well to the basalt chips that we get on the side of the roads out here in Hood River. It has good wet weather grip as well. I go through a lot of these between my wife's bike and mine. Seems like we are getting about 2K out of them before the tread wears out... so not the longest mileage tire. But you can't have good grip with a harder rubber. A great mix of durability, weight and suppleness.

I've got over 3500 miles on a set of these and except for a pinch flat that was my fault, they have been perfect. They don't feel heavy or slow and rocks don't cut them. Fantastic tire.

Use these tires for all my road riding. Corner well, good gripping power. Not prone to flats although at a mere 125 pounds riding on them I've never really been prone to getting flats. Michelin has always provided quality tires both on the road and mountain biking side. Nothing to complain about here, I've been thoroughly please with their performance and they seem to wear pretty well and as Michelin says they seem pretty durable.

Fair weather rider totaling most of my mileage May through September riding every other day or so. No problems to report, rides as good as any other tire.

I've been riding a set of these (700 x 23C) on my road bike for about 2 months now, and average about 120 miles a week. No flats, nor any deep/large cuts.

The tires feel plenty fast for my shorter interval training and spirited weekend group rides distancing anywhere from 70 to 90 miles. I particularly like the durability of these as the last thing I want to do is flat out and make everybody wait during a large group ride. And I don't feel like they're holding me back in terms of speed, or I wouldn't even be riding with them.

Bought one of these to replace a Krylion Carbon that was cut through. The tire is durable and pretty darn puncture resistant, but still handles well.

Only complaint is the weight, but it's worth it for the puncture resistance.

I've ridden these tires from Michelin for many years. One doesnt want to say it out loud, near certain jinx, but my rate of flats per year notably deflated. Seriously, I went 2 1/2 seasons without a flat. I ride these tires to thread bare then replace. The cost, especially from BikeTiresDirect makes these tires very cost effective. The ride on the Michelins is all they claim. Descending and cornering feels assured.

This tire is one of the best i've used.this is my second set.A little hard to mount the first time(typical for this type of tire).i rotate my tires often and didn't have any trouble.this tire does everything well.Low rolling resistance,smooth,corners well,super grip,great mialage,and sharp looking.After 1500 miles i mounted them on a secondary bike and pushed them as far as they would go.Got 3000 miles out of them.That was with the utmost maintenance.Proper pressure,wiped down after every ride,rotated every 500 miles.Your mialage may vary.Very flat resistant.Would i buy them again?I did

I have been enjoying this tire for years on both my road bike and my triathlon bike. I go through a set in about a year...sometimes two on both bikes, which I ride regularly.

I like the feel, and the look. However, I miss having color options on the sidewalls that Michelin has offered in the past.

this tire meets my criteria of very good dependable tire that has good road feel and it is confident in dry and wet conditions
