Great value.
Review by aantalis
I have been riding this tire through 3 sets. Great ride, grips well but doesnt last long. Sidewalls crack after 2000 mi. After one month, one of the tires I ordered was defective with a gooey breakdown of the sidewall. Bike tiresdirect replaced it no questions asked.

I really have enjoyed the quality of these tires. They are light weight and very durable all-around tires for every surface.

Very good overall tire for the Pittsburgh Roads

I have a Tarmac, a Venge, and a roubaix. All three utilize these tires. They are comfortable and sporty. Depending on the bike of the day

Quick and easy to replace

I ride 2 to 3 times a week for 40 to 55 miles each ride. Ride on country and city roads, flats and steep hill. I've found these tires provide an excellent balance of speed low rolling resistance, grip and puncture resistance. So you can ride aggressively without a lot of flats. Red sidewalls are a bonus. -)

I use the Michelin Pro4 Service Course Tire for a daily commute of about 10 miles per day through very rough and debris-strewn urban streets. I also do more distance on weekend rides. The Michelins are very durable and puncture resistant in very adverse conditions. Disclaimer I do use a plastic tire liner for extra protection from sharp bits of metal, rocks and other debris that try to regularly slice up my rubber. The Michelin's are at the lower end of the tire-buying spectrum and by waiting for one of the awesome BikeTiresDirect sales I was able to save nearly 50 percent more on the price. Bonus The Michelins are available with some flash colors which don't make the bike go faster or the tires wear longer, but do put an aesthetic smile on my face when I park my vintage old Trek 1500. The 700c by 23c tires that I use fit snugly on my Mavic moderate-vee rims, and I did have to use metal spoons to fit them. I probably have about 500 miles on my current set and they still look fairly new. I would highly recommend them.

I ride on fairly rough roads and this tire lasts a long time! I ride 7000 miles a year going through 2 sets of ties. I might see 1 flat every 2 years. Hard to beet that

This is only the 3rd set of tires Ive owned but Im very happy with how they perform. More confidence in cornering now they grip great. Love the road noise they give off when cornering downhill.
Review by Edd
I run them on all 3 of my bikes. They are sticky and durable. They arent as durable as some, out make up for it with handling

These tyres roll really well but don't have tread that is so soft it gets chunks ripped out of it on every stone.
Light weight and when mounted on wider rims have nice round profile.
Best of all they sound fast when rolling along the tarmac!

I have been using this tire for years now and am very pleased with the price, performance, and durability.

Obviously there is a new version out there, however, I am on my third set of these tires and I absolutely love them. I had a horrible experience with continentals, switched to Michelin, and will never look back.
Review by Sperry52
Great tires and I love the price. Ive been buying them for my bikes for the last four years since I had followed up on a fellow bikers recommendation.
Review by David
Tire handles nicely. Not extremely high mileage, but that's not why I bought it. I've used Pro 3's before and liked them a lot so this is the next generation.
Review by BlackHillsBiker
These wheels are very thin and smooth! I like them a lot so far.
