Michelin Power 5 Owner Reviews

What owners say summarised from 14 reviews

The Michelin Power 5 is generally praised as a strong street-sport tire, with many riders highlighting confident dry and wet grip, fast warm-up, and reassuring handling and braking feel. Higher-scoring reviews especially emphasize real-world performance in mixed conditions and predictable cornering. The most consistent drawback is wear/squaring-off (often appearing mid-to-late life), and a smaller but recurring theme is reduced stability/confidence at maximum lean or track-style riding, particularly as the tire approaches higher wear.

I think that it is a very good option in the street sport tires range. In comparison with Bridgestone s22, Michelin Power 5 is more agile in all inclinations, and that, in the limit, I think that suposes less confidence. But only in terms of feeling, because, at the moment, i haven't had any bad surprise. The braking phase is very good, with a lot of feeling, also entering at the corner braking hard. Is great with typical surprising mounts of sand or gravel on the road, the tire can eat this gravel with any problem thanks to this deep furrows, that was a great surprise for me, because with s22, a dirty road = small sleep. At the moment I only have the objection that at maximum inclination, is less stable than Bridgestone s22. I hope more duration of Michelin (1000 km more than s22 and I will be happy). If not, I Will come back to s22
