I USED TO LIKE THE Michelin Pro2 series - the ones that were made in France. The Krylion or Krylion Carbons some of them originally were made in France but eventually I believe they were all sourced from Thailand. The Krylion previously had a good reputation as a decent performing high mileage tire. I would be curious about the lot that Planet Bike is selling. Are these new old stock from 8 or 10 years ago or did they resurrect the Krylion name to position a tire below the “Power” series? I will say that my experience with the Pro4 series was spotty - the middle portion with the long wearing tread wo/Ludie seem to start to separate from the sidewalls prematurely making the tires toast a lot earlier than comparable tires.
