    Anyone used Michelin Power Endurance tyres?

    I was considering a pair of Michelin V2 Endurance 28c tyres for my felt V50 but they have been superceded by Michelin Power Endurance which allegedly have better puncture resistance and lower rolling resistance. Anyone tried either of them?

    Are these tyres borked?

    Or is the red bit with the 'cracks just poncey cosmetics?

    Skinny or fat tyres?

    No, I'm not going to ask the same old question again, just a recent experience... I've always ridden steel touring bikes, with 27 x 1 1/4 wheels - tyres generally between 28mm and 32mm. It's the perfect all-round bike style for me. And since I took up cycling again a couple of years ago I've...

    Question about riding in snow esp. for those with the proper tyres

    Sold:Bontrager R4 Aero Tyres

    A pair of used R4 Aero tyres 700x22 - the fastest tyre ever made or so the blurb goes. The central seam of rubber is still visible in a few places so they have plenty of miles left in them - and just one small cut in each. The sidewall ID design is a bit different on each.

    Advice please: Fitting Foldable Tyres on my Road Bike( Conti 4 Seasons)

    I have been bought some of these for Christmas, having been recomended them. I have a B Twin 520. I have never seen foldable tyres before. Is there anything I need to know about fitting them ? Should we get them out of the box to get the folds out or is that a stupid question? Thank you in advance.
