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.

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

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

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.

Seems to be a good tire. No problems.

I got a pair of these for our tandem. It's possible the worst rolling tire I've ever tried, and in 45 years and over 170K miles I've tried a lot.

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.

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

These Michelins replaced the OEM Bont 700x45. The Protek have a better ride along with good traction and little rolling resistance. Would buy again.
