Review on Enhance Your Cycling Experience with the MICHELIN Protek Max Bicycle Tire by Jayme Newitt

Revainrating 3 out of 5

protects against small glass splinters, but not against sharp metal wires.

2 months after installation, first puncture. He grabbed a tiny, sharp piece of metal on the street (probably from an exploding car tire). I ride 50 km every day in Memphis. Glass is everywhere on bike lanes and sidewalks. So far this tire has done a good job of protecting against glass. I use it with 4.5 bar pressure. Next time I would try another cheaper Kevlar reinforced tire. I used to have a leak in Michelin City and it never broke any metal, maybe luck.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
