Reviews
Michelin does a good deed, done dirt cheap with this tire. This Dynamic Classic looks good with a tan side wall. Michelin provides a nice, quality tire for a very reasonable price for riders who may not have the extra cash or need to throw down for a race tire. The rubber on this tire is high quality, the wire bead is solid, and the no-frills design does what it needs to do so you can focus on the ride.
I am a fan of Michelin tires in general and find they ride great and last a long time. This is a low end tire. It is definitely slower and heavier than most tires but for the price represents a great value. I use them on my beater bike that sees a lot of abuse and little love.
The Dynamic Classic is an excellent choice in a limited field for retro builds and restorations. Mounts easily, runs true -- and provides the older skinwall look. A few other options exist, but this Michelin tends to offer better value and availability. Multiple widths, too. I've used dozens.
Please be aware that when mounted my 28c labeled tires measured 30c when pumped up to 70 psi on a 19mm internal rim. This may cause issues with older brakes that don't have much tire clearance. This tire would rub the rear brake bridge on my old specialized allez. Make sure to double check your measurements. That being said on a different bike they ride nicely for the price and I haven't got a single flat commuting around the city in the year-ish I've used these tires. They look great too.
The 28mm size weighed in at 325 grams which is plenty light for general purpose. I climb a lot because it's unavoidable here and these make it easy enough. The nominal 28mm came out to nearly 30mm on fairly wide rims. The increase converts to comfort on an upright city bike. Pumped up to 80+ psi for speed rather than sightseeing, they feel agile without being twitchy and rough. All in all, they're a quick neutral cruising tire with a classic look that complements angular aluminum.
In my home shop, I build vintage racing bicycles for customers. The Michelin Dynamic Classic is a great go-to tire that provides a bit more modern tech, yet with an era-appropriate look, for my projects.
i bought these tires for my 1984 Trek 560 because they are a cheap replacement that gives that vintage gumwall look. the 700c25 are slightly taller than the previous tires that were on my bike. they rub against the underside of the brake caliper so im not sure how to fix this rubbing without either deflating the tire significantly or pulling the rim down lower in the dropouts which causes slipping of the rim within the dropout. seeking an alternative
Use these for training and general riding my road bike. Bought them on sale, and for the money they are great. Comfortable and fairly quiet. A little squirm on high speed turns, but 28mm width good for even mild trail riding on my road bike.
I have used these Michelin Dynamic Classics on many vintage restorations. Quality is always consistent, they mount on the rim easily, and they give a good ride. Look great too on vintage road bikes. Price is also reasonable.
