at Arts Cycler Favorite Ride:
Reverse Hamilton Challenge Bike Setup:
3 Saso steel custom frames. Two with DT swiss RR1 wheels and one with Mavic Open Pro rimes. Summary:
Great tire with very few flats. Now that they are discontinued I am at a loss of what to replace them with. I don't anything else will combine the speed, ride feel, flat protection and longevity of this tire. I may go for the Pro Race 3's but it doesn't sound like the same quality and the price is higher. Strengths:
Fast and comfortable. Very predictable when cornering. Weaknesses:
Maybe some premature wear in the back, but nothing worth crying about. Similar Products Used:
I'm not sure there is similar product.

at LBS where I work Favorite Ride:
Long Valley Bike Setup:
05 Cannondale R800
105/Ultegra Mix (9 speed) Summary:
Love the ride quality of these tires. Roll very smoothly and handle corners nicely. Very few flats after about 750-850 miles. I plan on trying something racier (Vittoria Open Corsa CX) just to see what's better. I have a good number of cuts in the rear and a noticeable flat spot in the center ridge. Mind you, I'm barely 150 pounds and I ride about 200 miles a week on above average roads. The front is still fine. Strengths:
Ride Quality
Looks (mine are red) Weaknesses:
Cuts easily
Wears quickly

at ebay Summary:
It took 1K miles with the Pro3Race to remind me just how great the Pro2Race is: fast, comfortable, and very reliable. I've had no more than 10 flats in 18K miles of riding on these tires. If only Michelin would keep making them! Strengths:
Comfort and durability. Better resistance to surface cuts than the Axial Pros; FAR better puncture resistance than the Pro3Races. Weaknesses:
Only that they're discontinued!

at Pricepoint Bike Setup:
Full Ultegra Summary:
I picked these up because I was looking for something replace my Bontrager Race X Lites. The MSRP is a bit daunting. I ride about 150-200 miles a week and these have been outstanding this summer. Strengths:
Low Rolling Resistance
Feel great in corners and descents
Wearing evenly
No flats thus far Weaknesses:
None yet.
$72 bucks a side is a drawback. I wouldn't pay that much for any tire. Finding them on sale is easy enough Similar Products Used:
Bontrager Race X Lite

Price Paid:
$0.00 Bike Setup:
Madone 5.9SL carrying my 190lb body Summary:
Replaced the Bontrager raceXLite tires with these. The Bontrager rear lasted 1,500 miles. I got 2,200 miles on the Michelin rear tire before it got square enough that I replaced it. My Michelin front has 1,700 miles and still looks fresh. I used to get occaisonal flats with the raceXlites. I have never gotten a flat with the Michelins, so they're either good or lucky. I actually though I felt increased rolling resistance when I replaced the raceXlite's with these tires, but I'm skeptical that I should really be able to tell that. Strengths:
Apparently puncture resistant
Good wear Weaknesses:
Possibly slightly increased rolling resistance Similar Products Used:
Bontrager RaceXLite
