Michelin Stargrip Reflective Flank 700C X 40 Rigid Urban Tyre 700C x 40 Black

Features:

– Exceptional grip on all types of slippery surface
– Excellent puncture resistance due to a high-density nylon fabric ply under the tread.
Technical solutions:
– The truly novel design of the ´star´ tread pattern offers exceptional grip and adherence on slippery surfaces of all types, whether damp, very wet, snow-covered or greasy.
– The ´Star Tread´ pattern (patented by MICHELIN) offers increase tread block mobility as well as localised pressurisation to maximise grip.
– It uses a specific rubber compound to ensure that the tread and rubber function perfectly at very low temperatures
– The star shape results in a very high number of tread block edges giving multidirectional adherence for maximum grip

Technology:

MICHELIN TR:
– Quality at less cost!
– When designing their cycle tyres, MICHELIN use two types of bead, flexible beads (TS) and rigid beads (TR).
– The traditional design of cycle tyres uses rigid beads, generally made of steel.
– This material is heavier than the aramide fibres used in making flexible beads but its much cheaper.
– Although used little or not at all in higher performance tyres, with the exception of Down Hill tyres, they are nonetheless of very good quality.
