Much Improved Over Pro 3

4

This tire is a much improved version of the Pro3. The durability is great, the tracking line is improved, and the grip performance on the corners is incredible.In addition, the stability of the tires at high descending speeds is the best I've ever experienced. The tire is a 'rock' at 90km/hr and transmits a surety that makes you want to even go faster - few tires fall into this category. As with all tires, (including the Michelin line) the rear tire does square off a bit at >1000km - this resulting from 60%+ of your total body wt. being supported by the rear. But even in mentioning this, the tire has a deep bead and will give you upwards of 3000 km of 'hard' riding life.

Really good so far.

5

I've only been riding these for a couple of month, but I'm very pleased with the performance so far. Even in this short time, it's easy to see the difference in durability, relative to the earlier Pro3; no comparison. But, in addition to the improved wear, these tires have really good grip -even in the wet - and good comfort, as well. Very nice balance of properties.

Nice tire

4

Bought these to replace a pair of GP4000S tires that were still in almost perfect condition after 2500+ miles. Just got tired of the Conti's hard ride. Immediately the Pro4s were noticeably more supple. Can't say they're faster but they are much more pleasant to ride. Only about 500 miles so far so nothing to say about longevity, but there's not a nick on them.

While these are good tires I wouldn't say they're brilliant. They do not have the suppleness, road feel and (illusion?) of speed that a high tpi tire like a Vitt Open Corsa or Veloflex Corsa has. In fact I still slightly prefer the Bontrager Race X Lite tire to the Pro4 in regard to those characteristics but it's no longer available; part of the reason I bought these was in trying to find a replacement for the RXLs. I'll have to keep looking.

Much improved

Just changed from ProRace 3 to 4 and found the ride greatly improved - especially on the cornering. A great upgrade.

Great tire and the best price in the world.

5

Have used the Prorace 3 and then turned to the Prorace4 this past spring. Great tire in which you could tell the difference between the 3 and 4. Just finished using the Prorace4 without one puncture in 6500 Km.....had to change it finally....and replaced it with another 4 tyre.

Outstanding and you can't find it any cheaper than PBK.

The fastest tyre yet!

4

I've used the Pro, Pro2 and the Pro3 and liked them all so trying this one out was a no-brainer.

As with all Michelin tyres this is not just fast but noticeably faster than the previous models. The thing that really struck me was the cornering capabilities, similar to that of a Continental (stickier but normally slower), acceleration and holding speed was amazing!

I've not had these long but i believe the only mark-down is like all Michelin tyres they wear down faster than other brands, although they do have an endurance version for those who rack up the miles...

DISAPPOINTED

1

The tire color shown is NOT the color that arrived. it's called pink and on the website it's a very pretty light pink but when I opened the package they looked more red than pink. I can't put these on my bike!!!!!!!!!! I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED!!

disappointing

1

I have always used michelon tyres but these pro 4's are no where near as good as pro 3's. I have had the the pro 4's on my bike for the last 4 months riding over the winter period and have had more punctures than i have ever had in my 15 years of riding. I have finally given up on them & forced to try another brand

Grippy easy to install and durable

4

First impressions with this new tire are good. They grip well roll quickly and are durable.

The many colors are easy to match with your ride, and they are a dream to install (very easy no levers required)

However they are no longer made in france...

Sticks like Sh!!!

Great tyre for racing really hangs in there better than the Pro Race 3 for cornering, also does not cut like the 3.
Would recommend this tyre.
