About this deal

I’ve always been a fan of this michelin tire line for 15 years -> krylion carbon to endurance to endurance v2. These power cup seem to have a lot of the puncture resistance of those tires but now in a better rolling resistance/performance format. If they have roughly the same puncture resistance I’d be willing to give them a shot. Interestingly, Michelin has been comparatively slow on the tubeless uptake – this is currently the brand’s only tubeless option for road use (although given the growing presence of all-season tubeless road tyres, I wonder if that might change soon).

Edit: Just noticed the recommendation for mounting this on rims with 15 - 17 mm inner width...which makes this not suitable for me anyway. Going after some marginal gains this year, so going to finally pull the trigger on some michelin power cup's. Also making the switch to latex tubes. Should be looking at about 5w+ gain on each wheel over michelin endurance v2 with butyl tubes, so that should be pretty significant. Hope puncture resistance is still good enough, but moving away from the desert and all the rando sharp things I feel a bit better running these daily. Not only have I had tested these tyres myself over several months, they have also been the tyre of choice for my race team ( Hutchinson-BrotherUK) this season, so together we have really put them through their paces! Michelin Powercup – Speed Here's the review on the non-tubeless version (aka tube style clincher): https://www.bicyclerollingresistance.com/...s/michelin-power-cupJust like the 25 mm version of the Power Cup TLR, we don't recommend the 28 mm version for wide rims. If you're still running 15 or 17 mm rims, these will probably be fine and offer incredible performance.

Der Michelin hat subjektiv ähnlichen, extrem niedrigen Rollwiderstand wie der Conti, was für Michelin ein enormer Fortschritt ist. Der Reifen ist sehr schnell.The granting of a best price is not combinable with other promotions (e.g. "free articles) from Bike-Discount. from what i understand, this pattern of textured centre and smooth shoulder is typically not good aerodynamically either Michelin has some pretty big claims to make about the speed of the Power Cup range, but again they're easy to believe. Personally, I think these offer a really useful blend of strength and performance, and I'll happily take the reasonable if not outstanding suppleness as a compromise. The new range will be available in three versions: Tubular, which is part of the Racing Line, and Tubetype and Tubeless Ready (TLR) which are both part of the Competition Line. Meanwhile Competition Line has the Power Cup and Power Cup TLR tyres – TLR for tubeless ready. Michelin have created new tread compounds to improve speed, rolling efficiency and cornering grip. These compounds have come from Michelin’s experience in the world of MotoGP. Michelin Power Cup Tubular Michelin Power Cup Tubular

We then assessed how easy (or difficult) it was to mount a set of each tyre to rims and set them up tubeless. The Power Cup is the latest addition to Michelin's road bike tire lineup. With the Power Cup, Michelin goes head-on with the Continental Grand Prix 5000 series that's been the "gold standard" in road bike tires for the past few years. The Power Cup is available in a traditional "clincher" tube-type version, a tubeless-ready (TLR) version, and a tubular version for those that still prefer tubular tires.Michelin are perhaps not the first brand you think of when looking for a high performance road tyre, but the Michelin Powercup tubeless ready tyre may change that. The Michelin Power Cup TLR tyre is Michelin’s answer to the likes of the Continental GP5000 S TR and Schwalbe Pro One TLE, and many other high-end road bike tyres besides.
