Pro 3 were better

Had several sets Pro 3 that were prefect. Try 2 sets of pro 4 and the last set had bad sidewalls. Usually got about 1000 miles per set. Now trying Pro 4 endurance.

Thank you for your feedback.

Perfect tire for the enthusiast facing a variety of mostly crappy roads!!

I seem to be surrounded by poor pavement, whether in the City or the back roads around here. Smooth pavement is so rare! And then there is debris of all kinds. So, I need a tire that is versatile and tough, but not real heavy. This is the ticket. Tried others, love this tire!

Thank you for your feedback.

Good but a tight fit

Would have been 5 stars, but they are a bit tight getting on to the rims. I'm not sure if this is a bad rim/tire combo or if the tyres are just a bit on the neat side for fitting standard rims. Would be interesting to hear if anyone else had this issues. Other than that these are fine.

Thank you for your feedback.

A more durable Pro4

I mostly train with the ProRace series of tires and the previuos Pro3 was a complete disappointment in terms of wear and durability. The Pro4 provided the virtues of the earlier Pro2 with better grip and slightly better wear. Now the Pro4 Endurance is a step in the right directionthe grip of the regular Pro 4 coupled to better longevity....

Thank you for your feedback.

Most excellent!

They feel great, excellent rolling resistance. Compared to my old tires, the acceleration was quite noticeable. Have yet to experience them in a good rain so I can't speak to that. I will be buying these again.

Thank you for your feedback.

They seem fine...

After approx. 200 miles these tires are working as expected. Traction seems fine, seem to be durable, resistance is minimal.

12 Satisfied With These Tires

I purchased 2 of the Michelin Pro4's and one of the tires is GREAT...the other has gone through 3 Tubes already 2 tubes while just standing on its own and not riding, the other while riding. For some reason the tire does not clinch to the rim by the stem and lifts when inflated...this causes the tube to be exposed and eventually a blow out. I am looking to give it another try...but my cheap Serfas tires survived 2000 miles without any issues at all and I am thinking I should just return to those.

BikeTiresDirect.com Comments

Sounds like the base of the valve is getting underneath the tire and pushing the bead out of place. One thing to try is seating that portion of the tire first to help get the base of the valve to sit inside the tire, rather than under the bead.

We've been in touch with you about this issue and, in addition to our troubleshooting tips, it might be a good idea to visit a local shop to ensure that your rim is in good shape and that you are seating the bead properly.

Thanks,

So far so good

Great tires have a couple thousand KM on them no flats which is great on the lousy road conditions in Quebec. Good grip in the corners and all in all I am very satisfied.

So far very happy

I have used Michelin Carbon Kyrlons for the past couple of years and these tire feel much better (comfortable). Part of that might be that I have also switched to a 25mm width. This last winter I used Gator Skins but unfortunately I ordered the wire bead. So the Pro4s appear to take less effort.

I have on hill I descend hit 40 mph into a smooth 90 degree turn. These tires give a lot of confidence under that circumstance.

I only have used them a couple of hundred miles so I have no idea on the wear.

Thank you for your feedback.

The best training tire I have ever ridden.

These tires have a very good life with little sacrifice in performance. I ride year round putting on about 8,000 miles. I am pretty rough on tires and I am impressed that these last a full year of riding. These tires even with several cuts from metal and glass last and wont leave you road side because of a tire failure. I give my highest recommendation to these tires as a training tire.

Thank you for your feedback.

Good, durable tire for our tandem

Running the 25c on our tandem at 120 psi. We are always looking for a better tire. This is the best so far. Very resistant to cutting, yet holds well in the wet and rolls fast. That's a tough combination to find. Would make a very good distance tire on a single at a lower pressure.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best Fast Training Tire Available

If you need a tough training tire that rolls fast enough, handles well, and gives you 1500 miles of uninterrupted use, grab these tires (Background I'm 180 lbs, average 4-500 miles a month in Eastern Pennsylvania, and ride fast enough, with some hills, sprints, and hard TT efforts. I don't race anymore but if I did I'd leave these tires on for training races).

I've been a Vredestein snob, but the Michelin Pro4 Endurance has won me over. While it doesn't quite match the Vred's slick feel, it still handles and rolls well. It's a solid, fast tire. It even mounts easily. I can wholeheartedly recommend these tires to any road cyclist.

Thank you for your feedback.

Good tire, good looking.

No flats so far (300 miles) at 205 lbs. I would buy again at the discounted price. Look sweet. Handles well, grippy. Not the fastest tire, but decent. It's fast though if you consider no flats.

Thank you for your feedback.

My favorite tire!

I have been using the Michelin Pro4 and its predecessor for over seven years now, and love the durablity, handling and even the red stripe that matches my bike. Training in any conditions and triathlons are all within my range of activities. My annual fall tire change has become somewhat of a ritual, in with the new tire and out with the old! It would be nice if there were a way to recycle bike tires, because I hate to toss these things in the trash.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great tire for the money

I have already put 500 miles on my 2 Michelin PRO4 Endurance tires. I haven't had any problems with the tires. Rather, compared to my old Hutchinson Equinox tires, they give me a smoother ride, and since the recommended tire pressure (114 psi) for my weight is higher than the Hutchinson tires I had (105 psi), there is less rolling resistance and, therefore, adds a bit more to the speed with the same effort. Now, the only thing I'm waiting to see with the Michelin tires is whether they last as long as my old Hutchinson Equinox tires which have approximately 3000 miles on them and are still good to be used as spares. The Michelins are installed on my Tommaso Velocita road bike, and I use my bike as a workout tool putting from 20 - 30 miles per ride, 5 to 6 times per week on the average.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great light road tire as an alternative to the Pro4 Service Course.

I use this tire on the mountain roads of Colorado. I wanted a tire that can handle the harsh road conditions typical of this area. After 400 miles, the Pro4 Endurance has been a great wearing and riding tire. Michelin continues to make a quality product.
