Folding Bicycle

Built to be the ultimate long-distance road tire. Soft rubber compound on the front for added grip and safety. Special wear-resistant rubber mix on the rear for efficiency and durability. 25mm width front and rear for a smooth ride, plus high-density anti-puncture reinforcement. Michelin Pro OptimumMichelin has developed separate front and rear tires to take into account their specific requirements: The front tire carries 30% of the weight load and absorbs 100% of the braking effect. For this reason, Michelin engineers made it a priority to develop a tire with added grip, capable of providing maximum safety to users on cold, wet surfaces. The rear tire carries 70% of the weight load and absorbs 100% of the torque generated by the bike's forward motion, which affects its efficiency and wearlife. In order to achieve consistent performance, the rear tire now has a longer life, meaning that MICHELIN Pro Optimum Front and Rear tires now have comparable lifespans.
