TUBULAR, TUBELESS READY & TUBE TYPE TYRES
TUBULAR TYRES
MICHELIN tubulars must be glued to a rim without metal or carbon hooks using glue or special double-sided tape for simplicity.
TUBELESS READY TYRES
MICHELIN Tubeless Ready tyres can be fitted with or without without an inner tube if a Tubeless UST or Tubeless Ready compatible wheel is used. The maximum recommended pressure must not be exceed. Sealant must be added. Tyre pressure must be checked before every ride. Michelin advises to check with the wheel manufacturer to ensure tubeless ready compatibility.
TUBE TYPE TYRES
MICHELIN tyres (Tubetype or Tubeless Ready) fit onto hooked metal or carbon rims with an inner tube.
RUBBER COMPUND
Rubber characteristics produce different tyre performances. Rubber technology can improve tyre grip, efficiency and longevity.
RUBBER COMPOUND FOR ROAD RANGES
MICHELIN Gum-X technology delivers strong rolling efficiency while delivering a good level of grip. For each product, a different MICHELIN Gum-X version delivers the tyre performance required.
- On the MICHELIN Power Time Trial, MICHELIN Gum-X technology provides the highest level of rolling efficiency.
- On the MICHELIN Power Cup, MICHELIN Gum-X technology gives the best balance between rolling efficiency and wet grip.
- On the MICHELIN Power All Season, MICHELIN Gum-X technology is designed for a max of traction for wet and cold conditions.
RUBBER COMPOUND FOR GRAVEL RANGES
The MICHELIN rubber technology that provides grip for extreme usages. This compound was developed from technology used in MotoGPTM.
RUBBER COMPOUND FOR CYCLOCROSS RANGES
The MICHELIN rubber technology that provides grip for extreme usages. This compound was developed from technology used in MotoGPTM. On MICHELIN Power Cyclocross range, the MICHELIN Magi-X is available in green compound.
REINFORCEMENTS
REINFORCEMENTS FOR ROAD RANGES
Very high density aramid reinforcement in the casing to provide strength at the summit of the tyre and significantly reduce the number of punctures.
Provides the Tubeless Ready performance of the tyre. Combined with sealant, it helps to maintain optimal pressure for road rides.
Hi-Density Shield technology, a cross-laid reinforcement on the crown covering the tread.
REINFORCEMENTS FOR GRAVEL RANGE
High-density cross-laid reinforcement protecting the whole tyre casing. The crown and sidewalls are reinforced to provide maximum protection and durability (Range: MICHELIN Power Gravel).
REINFORCEMENTS FOR CYCLOCROSS RANGES
High-density cross-laid reinforcement protecting the whole tyre casing. The crown and sidewalls are reinforced to provide maximum protection and durability (Range: MICHELIN Power Cyclocross).
TREAD PATTERNS
Tread pattern designed to provide grip, even in corners, for fast road use.(Range: MICHELIN Power Cup Tubular).
Tread pattern designed to provide grip even in corners for road use, in all weather conditions.(Range: MICHELIN Power All season).
OTHER TECHNOLOGIES
MICHELIN Disc Brake Ready technology allows the tyre to withstand the extra braking from bicycles with disc brakes thanks to a specially adapted rubber.
