Michelin Krylion Carbon Tire

I've probably spent more time on Krylions than all other tires combined. Great durability, smooth ride, good puncture resistance. It even holds up doing double duty as a trainer tire. Even fast enough to race on, I'm a big fan of running a Krylion rear and Pro3 front on race day.

There are whispers that Krylions aren't the same since Michelin moved production from France to Thailand. I've seen nothing to indicate the quality of the tire has dropped. Many of the best bike tires in the world are currently made in Asia and the Krylion is a perfect example of this.

Great tire Fast, comfortable feel, and practically built proof

This is a great tire. It has the feel of a race tire, it is responsive and rolls well, but it is also durable. I have never flatted on one of these, and have put in serious mileage.

About to buy my 3rd set of these-really happy with them. I'm getting about 3000 miles out of them which is two full seasons for me. Only ever flatted once and that was a tube pinch-tire's still fine. Very quick and fast at 110 psi. Not so great in rain or on gravelly or sandy roads. I ride road & paved train only, for fitness.
