Description

Description

The fastest racing tyre in the Michelin collection.

The Michelin Power Competition is Michelin Pro4 Competition’s successor. With the Competition racing tyres, Michelin focuses on minimal rolling resistance and maximum speed. For years, the Michelin Pro 4 competition was the flagship in the Michelin tyre series, but with the arrival of the Power Competition this has definitely come to an end. 200.000 test kilometers and almost 5 years later Michelin finished the tyre that leaves their competition miles behind when it comes to rolling resistance.

Less rolling resistance and improved puncture resistance.

The Michelin Power Competition surpasses the Pro 4 Competition in every respect. The tyres are aimed at the competitive cyclist. The Power Competition saves 25% on rolling resistance, which is about 10 watt compared to its predecessor Pro4 Service Course! Not only the rolling resistance has been improved, the durability and puncture resistance as well. The tyre is equipped with Aramid Protek Puncture Protection. This anti-puncture strip offers good protection against cuts caused by sharp stones.

Good grip on dry and wet roads

The Michelin Power Competition is completely slick, so there is no tread on the tyre. Contrary to popular belief, this ensures a good grip on the road surface. The contact surface with the road is, depending on the flexibility of the tyre, larger with slick tyres. With a 3 x 180 tpi carcass you can be sure that you have a good grip on dry and wet roads. With the Michelin Power Competition you have a competitive all-rounder in your hands.

Great tyres, lightweight, but still tough

- Neil 28 June 2020

I’ve had Michelin pro4 SC for the last couple of years, these are the new version, one noticeable thing ; their profile is more like a 25 mm tyre, not a 28mm, which I found the pro4 were very “generous “ in that department. They grip and feel great !

Pros & Cons

A good price point
Grip well
Light
Tough
None

5 / 5

5 / 5

Great performance, really good race tyre you can train on as it's durable

- Steven 29 May 2020

Easier to get on rim than tubeless, great sound and feel, grip is confidence boosting. They don't need as much air in as the tyre suggests, I run mine at 85-90psi. I've had other Michelin tyres in past, I can't say I've noticed anything different but they were good anyway.

Pros & Cons

Durable
Good rolling feel
Lightweight
Not too expensive
Could do with being a tad easier to get on rim
Not everyone has them in stock
