Strengths: Smooth ride and mounted easily.Weaknesses: All good for now.Bottom Line: I have 5 rides (around 250 miles) on these tires. GripLink up front, PowerLink in back. They replaced Pro Race 3 which were about 2 years old and beginning to show a little wear. I like them. They are very smooth and complement the LOOK carbon frame they're on in terms of handling road shock. One ride was in driving rain. I pushed it a little harder as my confidence grew with them and was pleased that they handled the lean well.
So far... these are keepers. If anything changes, I'll re-post. Thx

Strengths: Supple, fast, light, dependable, great cornering.Weaknesses: None I can think of.Bottom Line: I am incredibly happy with these tires! I have 3 sets for my bikes, and I Have had no flats, cuts or any issues at all. My riding buddy also bought 2 sets on my recommendation and he also has never had a flat or cut etc. They roll easy and are very supple. They are the best. I used to have Contis 4000s. No comparison!

Strengths: Great feeling tires. Matches my Mavic wheel set.Weaknesses: Quality is incredibly poor. De-lamination almost immediately. Hope this was bad batch not a systematic quality issue. Whomever makes these for Mavic should fix this problem (Michelin?).Bottom Line: I had these (Comps) on my 07 Bianchi 928 T Cube and Mavic R-SYS SL wheels and was a great feeling tire that I really wanted to keep and also wanted to like since match my wheels, but quality is awful. Agree completely with previous review. Tire compounds came apart immediately, after just a few rides and cracks in tires vacuum up any glass, shrapnel, debris you encounter on the road. I had to clean out glass before getting flats too much to make this worth it. Switching back to Vittoria or Michelins now unfortunately.

Strengths: Light ('ish - but not a reason to buy)
Easy to mountWeaknesses: Too easy to mount (and unmount)!
Bad construction - tire rubber compounds separating (almost immediately). Starting to flat (after 500k).
Bottom Line: Disappointed with this tire. Bought to replace several instances of Michelin Pro 3's (and Pro 2's before that). Thought that they would match my Mavic Ksyrium SL Premium's. Wrong. I have done about 500k of mixed surface cycling (all dry). Punctured after a short stretch of cobble stones which caused the tire to expose the tube! Tire starting Bad road feedback - give no confidence on descents.
Favorite Ride: Around Pic St Loup (near Montpellier, France)
Price Paid:
$43.00
