MichelinProtek 700c Tire(Return to Product Page)

Being I have used Michelin City tires on my Mountain Bike that I put some 700 plus miles to date with excellent results. That is no punctures. I decided to change my tires on my road bike to these tires going from 700x28 to 700x32, thus allowing me to enjoy more bike paths that often have gavel or dirt based roadways with the peace of mind. Only con I have is the overall diameter of these tires was much large than I accounted for, being I have rubbing my brake levers issues on my front wheel thus having to take care that I install it so to avoid the rubbing.

Just what I needed to feel safe and secure on my city streets. Put them on a Cannondale Quick.

Put these tires on my cross bike. I no longer compete but use the bike for casual surface street rides.

Went with Protec 38 mm 700c but sidewall stated it was rated 40mm. Not sure why some manufacturers ocassionaly do this, but caused no clearance issues on my Sirrus Elite Carbon. This Protec 3840 tire is a replacement for the factory 30mm. A nice improvement on tar & chip, light graveldirt and rougher streets. They give up a little speed to the previous Specilized 30 Espoir but not a lot. I like this tire and the size is a good match for my fitness and city adventure riding style.

It was good to find a tire that is pliable and durable

I wanted to make my mountain bike more road based for commuting and these tires did the trick. The original tires had 2.2-2.0 tires on them and the rims worked well with the 40mm I purchased.

Very nice tires and very smooth quiet ride. No issues with punctures as of yet and got about 600 miles on them. Great tire all around.

I purchased these tires for my workers that utilize only a bike for transportation. They a very reliable and the reflection adds another safety feature.

Cheaply made requested to returned and

no one helped. Would not recommend the tire. Very disappointed. Please do better for your customer in the future.

Have ridden daily since receiving tires. These tires have performed superbly,and immensely increased my cycling enjoyment

Ride on nyc streets mostly all boroughs ride these tires on Erie Canal across my state and on Allegheny trail from Pittsburgh to Washington DC without a problem they last me about a year and I change them every year

Put these on a Bianchi Volpe for an occasional 20 mile commute to work. so far they're 400 miles into use and still running just fine. Coasting on the Volpe has greatly improved, tread handles fairly well on dirt trails as well. would defiantly recommend as a great inexpensive tire.

The tires arrived on time and they fit well. This is my first set of puncture resistance tires. I'm looking forward to many flat free miles

Great tires , great grip , handle well on multiple surfaces

Great tire, great price, Bike Tires Direct always performs.

All terrain road and gravel tire. Smooth ride and good traction.

Short rides mostly even ground

Great tire, nice tread pattern and rides well. Safety reflective strip on sides. Great for the commute.

Seems to be a good tire. No problems.

Very dependable tires, especially when you ride in cities where the streets are full of of potholes, you feel more confident and let the stress out, knowing that your tires are puncture resistant. So far, so good. I use these tires mostly on the trail, and I am very happy, good traction.
