Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Thanks Dr. Pete...

Got my Michelin Krylions earlier this week and mounted them on my Mavics. They were a bit tougher to mount then my Specialized All-Condition Pro tires, but I got them on without too much trouble. I've done two good rides on them and so far I am impressed. They are a better cornering tire then the Specialized and they give a better ride. Now if they last as long as the Specialized then it will be a bonus.

I've gone ahead an ordered another set for my wife's bike, since she was complaining about the cornering performance of her All-Condition Pro's.

We're going to keep the Specialized tires as our wet-weather tires since I've read that the Krylion's are not the best in those conditions...Then again, what 23c tire really is...

Once again BF provides me with some invaluable information...

with soap? or a little febreeze?

You could save time by taking them into the shower with you.
