Michelin has launched its first tubeless cycling tire, the Michelin Power Gravel tire. The new cycling tire is engineered to deliver excellent grip, performance and durability in a variety of cycling conditions. According to the company, the Power Gravel tire can tackle its rider’s favorite road or trail while giving the comfort and durability consumers would expect from a Michelin tire.
“With over a year of testing on trails in the U.S. and Canada, Power Gravel was designed to deliver the best tire for adventure enthusiasts,” said Shane Messner, Michelin two-wheel director for North America. “The new Gravel line combines the best of Michelin’s road tires with the strength of our mountain bike tires.”
The “Bead 2 Bead Protek” protects the whole tire casing and creates better strength for cyclists. Customers will experience more miles on the road or trail thanks to Michelin’s new exclusive X-Miles Compound rubber that extends the tire’s lifespan. The “Gravel Design” tread pattern features small blocks for low rolling resistance and excellent grip on mixed or changing terrains.
Power Gravel tires are in stores now and available in three sizes (700x33mm, 700x35mm and 700x40mm). With a tread design engineered to provide cyclists with the best riding experience, Michelin’s newest launch offers an affordable tire without sacrificing durability or longevity.
