Michelin Protek Cross Reflective Flank 700C X 35 Hard City Tire

3D cutting of the tread pattern provides greater mobility of the tread blocks for maximum grip in all conditions. 1mm puncture-resistant reinforcement provides effective protection for everyday use. 1-3D cutting of the tread pattern: The tread blocks are cut in 3 directions to ensure tread block mobility and maximum versatility in all circumstances. Technology: Quality at a lower price! When designing its bicycle tires, MICHELIN uses two types of beads: flexible sides (TS) and hard sides (TR). Traditional bicycle tire construction uses rigid beads, typically made of steel. This material is heavier than the aramid fibers used to make flexible sides, but it is much cheaper.. Although it is used little or not at all in higher performance tires, except for downhill tires, they are nevertheless of very good quality.
