So far rides similar to Pro3Race and clearly tougher and thicker
5
I got three of the 23mm from Amazon and they are the ones made in France. I know some people have complained about some supposed problems with Michelin moving to Thailand and the tires from there - although Michelin says they moved their own equipment and they are the same...
They weighed about 245g, 250g, and 248g. They are look basically like thick versions of the Pro3Race.
Anyway, from the first ride on them they feel similar to the Pro3Race. I have ordered up some of the red and yellow ones from PBK. We'll see if they are made in France or the new ones. I presume the Amazon tires must have been older inventory.
It's obvious from the extra weight and the feel that these guys will be a lot tougher than the Pro3Race, and as the feel is similar they are 5 stars.
Right now I have a Krylion on the back and a Pro3Race still on the front.

bullet proof

These tires are bullet proof , fast rolling and good looking tires. Its a bit tough to install on my fulcrum wheels but well worth the pain.. Install it and forget it..
I like it so much that I bought another pair..

Well over 5000 Klms
5Approx. 6000 Klms 1000Klms on un-sealed roads and 2000Klms in the wet. Two flats caused by the same people who can boast that their only star act is throwing bottles out of car windows. No need to guess the brand the replacement tyres will be when the Krylions finally wear out. As with all slick tyres a higher level of care is necessary when the roads are very wet. Two replacements are on order as I write this review.

after 4 years of everyday use on my commuting bicycle
5You can't go wrong with these tires: they are the best i ever had. I have put more than 8000km on them, commuting in Montreal all seasons, cycloriding, and had 2 flats only in 4 years.

Excellent all--around tire.....nearly indestructible
5
I have many thousands of miles on these tires and I couldn't be happier. The rolling resistance is low, they ride good and they hardly ever flat. I have a minimum of 4 -5 thousand miles with these tires and have had 1 flat, which was due to the used wheel I had just purchased, not the tire.
Fast for a training tire and for around $ 37 they're a great deal.

Great value for money, tough and grippy, with low rolling resistance
4The only bad thing we've found about Michelin’s almost-legendary Krylion tyre is that, for ages, it was hard to get hold of...Michelin claim it’ll run for 3000 miles, which we’ve already exceeded on our older sample, yet it was also fast in our roll-down tests and it’s barely heavier than many race tyres.
