Michelin Power Pure

On the very first ride you will notice Michelins light tire technology, I felt the bike was much more eager to turn, it was almost similar to riding with lighter wheels. They are not as quick to warm here in South Wales as I was expecting, but they are not bad. The front is not as confidence inspiring as I had hoped for but will not move on the edge. In fairness I am used to a road legal track tire with a medium compund so this tire is really quite impressive. The reason I felt the need to write was its wet grip. Now this is a different story, this tire is amazing!!! I was able to push hard over the mountains and the tire did not slip once, common sense stops you from kicking the arse out of it, but I reckon given its wet grip you will be hard pushed to find a better all round tire. This tire could only be bettered by the same tire with different compund choices!!! Another thing is, I am not exactly sure where this tire lives in the market place, the media on it is confusing, is it a road tire? or a road legal track tire? if it is a road tire then this is the best tire money can buy fact. If its a road legal track tire its great also but not the best. Great job Michelin miss you guys on the GP circuit on the mountain roadss, I hate bridgestones they just can't cut it out there
