so far great
700c30 running hookless TL, so far no problems or punctures. Resistance, speed, grip (during leaning) very satisfied also when comparing to competitors. Will buy again, but not sure if 30 or 32 next time. 700c30 PRO5 i got puncture with big wood splinter, but was able to plug it. That model feels sluggish, more resistance.

Solid tire with several red flags
I’m a bit torn on these tires to be honest. Like others have said, these tires are wicked fast. Rolling resistance is great and I love the feel as I’m getting up to speed. However, getting these to seat properly on my rims has been a nightmare at times. For whatever reason, the tires just don’t seat correctly and I constantly have to fidget with it until it’s acceptable. Then, probably the biggest downside is the durability and lifespan. As others have mentioned, the tires seem to wear very quickly and fall apart. My current set has probably 1,200 miles on them and need to be replaced. The sidewalls are starting to show the threads and there’s literally parts of the tire that are falling off. I thought it was just me, but after reading the other reviews, it appears this is a quality and/or production issue with this tire. Hopefully, Michelin makes the necessary changes because it’s a fantastic tire when everything goes according to plan.

Very quick Tire that also falls apart very quickly
The tires were very very fast and had good puncture protection. One tire was a nightmare to fit on a tubeless rim. I've destroyed 3 of them. One had a cut on the sidewall (my fault), the other two simply delaminated and separated on the carcass. There is definitely a material and construction problem there. The two tires were perfectly fine until the carcass started to separate.

Good Performer, Poor Quality
I have mixed opinions about this tire. On one hand I'm pleased with their performance but unfortunately their quality is a let down. After 6000 miles the tread of the rear tire has "U" shaped cuts and the material has separated from the casing. The front tire has a 3/4" split between the center tread section and the shoulder section. It is possible that the very rough road surfaces here and our very high pavement temperatures contributed to these issues but that is speculation on my part. That said, no other high performance tire I've tried suffered from these issues. I cannot recommend these tires.

Industry leader for puncture protection
I look after nationwide distribution for several carbon wheelset brands in my country. We regularly test high performance road tyres and provide R&D feedback on new products for wheelsets to manufacturers and have just as much data as any world tour team. The Power Cup TLR is an excellent product that stands toe to toe against any industry equivalent high-performance tyres but edges slightly ahead in puncture protection. We have several sets on rotation in 28 and 30mm sizing across a fleet of test and demo wheelsets.
