Works in Nassau!

Rating:****
I commute on some pretty bad roads here in Nassau. Also, there are usually shattered bottles along the road. These tires have done a great job of rolling well and getting me safely back and forth to work, the store, or wherever. The ONLY shortcoming is their mushy feeling cornering at speed. That may be that they have a lower PSI than many other tires and I keep them about 35. So far they are holding up very well.

A step up

Rating:*****
These are pretty new so I can't give long-term findings. So far they are several steps above the tires I replaced. These Michelin's have stiff sides and heavy surface which I presume will give it better durability and strength. They are only 36psi tires but they are solid and roll quick. I am very pleased with them.

Negative Reviews:

Neat - but too many flats in a city.

Rating:**
I bought this tire as a replacement for my rear tire. Since fitting the tire - which I may note it fits perfectly - I have had an average of 1 flat per week. (about 6 weeks - 8 weeks) Perhaps it is my riding style, perhaps the terrain of city streets with broken glass and what not, I do not know. Hence, I give this product a 2 because I continually have to fix the inner tube that this tire protects.

On the positive side the tire has a high pressure rating and with it a low rolling resistance. I suppose if I were riding on cleaner roads without broken glass, nails, etc., this would be a good tire.

I don't though.
