Michelin

I've used these on my commuter for 16 months and over 1200 miles.

They roll fast, stop fast, are surprisingly sticky for a tire in this price range and I haven't had one flat since mounting them. And while acknowledging I should have replaced them 300 miles ago, I did not expect to have the sidewall completely blowout on a 40 mph decent.

Fortunately I didn't go down, but I did have to walk my bike 4 miles back to my shop as a tire change was not an option.

I've read a few other reviews where the sidewalls have been at issue and with far less mileage then I'd logged. I'd be curious if those who'd experienced a similar failure purchased their tires from the same lot as mine which was 2422578151.

If not for that one questionable issue, I'd have given these a 5 star rating hands down!

I have now used these on two different Mountain Bikes, and my wife's city bike. I am blown away at how perfect they are for combination, city and country riding. They roll easy, very easy. And the traction is always there. They are also lighter than most tires this size. I ride old dirt canal roads a lot and these Michelin Country Rocks do everything well. As an experiment, I tried a hard rocky trail that should require real MTB tires, but these did just fine. Never had a flat, either. No complaints at all.

These are not easy to get on the rims. I didn't do them myself, I had a local shop mount them for me and the mechanic (he's a master) struggled to get them on. I had the tubeless fail 3 times after sitting, but the 4th time was the charm. I really like these tires for my winter riding and switched from the usual Conti 5000's because those are not durable enough for winter riding. I have about 500 miles on them and really like them, ordering a second set now.

I've had this tire on the rear of a commuter-oriented Trek 950 for a few months now (with a 1.75 Conti Country Rock in the front). Loving it so far - quiet tread pattern, but enough grip for wet conditions and dirt. Handles 50psi well (my preferred PSI). Heavy of course, but that's what you sign up for with an e-bike rated tire. What you get in exchange is serious durability! Slightly 'dead' feel compared to some more supple tires, (aka thinner tires) but not that bad compared to other e-bike rated tires.
