Michelin
Protek 700c Tire

Used the tires on my bike to replace worn tires

I ride 30 plus miles a day for pleasure in and around Michigan's trails. These tires are superior in ride and performance to my previous tires. The narrow band white wall looks good and glows at night for added safety.

These tires hold up well to wear and punctures-great for commuting on streets to avoid flats

I have a town bike with big folding panniers and a large rack bag that I use to get groceries (just fits two large bags of groceries and a six-pack in the rack bag) - about 40 lb with no load. These tires carry the load easily yet are lighter and have much lower rolling resistance than the others I have tried on this bike. I absolutely recommend them!

We bought the 32mm Protek from WesternBikeWorks as a Deal of the day. We have it on the rear wheel of our road tandem to see if a lower pressure wider tire will reduce vibration compared to 28mm Gatorskins. Team and tandem weigh just under 400 pounds and we wear rear tires quickly. Weve put over 700 miles on the Protek and were very pleased with the ride, rolling resistance and flat protection.

I only have had them on my bike for a couple hundred miles, but Ive put them through the wringer. They have great traction in wet and sloppy weather and provide an ultra-smooth ride over chuckhole-covered streets. These were a perfect investment to allow me to ride my cross bike year round.

Put these on the knock around town ride. No issues at all. Easy to mount, nice ride and the reflective strip really stands out in the dark.

A nothing special tire that does what it states. Never got flats and a great tire if you are looking for a good commuting tire.

So far, so good. I got this for my steel commuter. I'm rocking 700x35 and I ride ~16 miles a day and got them about 4 months ago...no flats so far. I haven't ridden much in wet conditions yet. I'm curious about how they'll perform this Portland winter. We shall see.

Put these tires on my cross bike. I no longer compete but use the bike for casual surface street rides.

Just what I needed to feel safe and secure on my city streets. Put them on a Cannondale Quick.

Being I have used Michelin City tires on my Mountain Bike that I put some 700 plus miles to date with excellent results. That is no punctures. I decided to change my tires on my road bike to these tires going from 700x28 to 700x32, thus allowing me to enjoy more bike paths that often have gavel or dirt based roadways with the peace of mind. Only con I have is the overall diameter of these tires was much large than I accounted for, being I have rubbing my brake levers issues on my front wheel thus having to take care that I install it so to avoid the rubbing.

Purchased one of these to replace a front hybrid tire with severely cracked tread. The new tire seemed smooth and quick. However, on a few occasions I nearly wiped out on some small patches sand in the road at low speeds, when turn slightly. So I am moving this tire to the rear.

It was a struggle to get the tire on and had a very hard time getting the tire to seat correctly. I have not had this problem with other tires on the same rim.

They remind me of much more expensive touring tires sold by a German manufacturer. They roll well and have nice rounded shoulders for leaning into turns. Other reviewers had noted they run a bit large. I generally run 35s and that is the size I bought but my bike has very minimal brake and fender clearance and If I get another set they will be 32s. Otherwise I am completely pleased.

The tires are great. The reflexive stripe works very well.

Went with Protec 38 mm 700c but sidewall stated it was rated 40mm. Not sure why some manufacturers ocassionaly do this, but caused no clearance issues on my Sirrus Elite Carbon. This Protec 3840 tire is a replacement for the factory 30mm. A nice improvement on tar & chip, light graveldirt and rougher streets. They give up a little speed to the previous Specilized 30 Espoir but not a lot. I like this tire and the size is a good match for my fitness and city adventure riding style.

I wanted to make my mountain bike more road based for commuting and these tires did the trick. The original tires had 2.2-2.0 tires on them and the rims worked well with the 40mm I purchased.

Very nice tires and very smooth quiet ride. No issues with punctures as of yet and got about 600 miles on them. Great tire all around.

Ride on nyc streets mostly all boroughs ride these tires on Erie Canal across my state and on Allegheny trail from Pittsburgh to Washington DC without a problem they last me about a year and I change them every year
