TPI stands for “Threads Per Inch”. In precise terms, this means the number of threads in the structure of the tyre’s rubber compound for every inch of its construction. It’s easy to get TPI and PSI confused, but just remember: TPI is related to the density of the tough cords in the tyre's casing – it’s not in any way related to bike tyre pressure. For example, for road use, a tyre with a 120 TPI carcass will be lighter, softer and more mobile than tyres with a lower value, because the threads are thinner, just like the carcass. That's a good thing for cyclists to bear in mind if they are looking for tyres to race on which they will pump up to a high pressure to obtain maximum speeds.

Meanwhile Competition Line has the Power Cup and Power Cup TLR tyres – TLR for tubeless ready. Michelin have created new tread compounds to improve speed, rolling efficiency and cornering grip. These compounds have come from Michelin’s experience in the world of MotoGP. Michelin Power Cup Tubular Michelin Power Cup Tubular The performance of the Michelin Power Cup TLR is incredibly strong in almost all of our tests. When compared to its main target: the Continental Grand Prix 5000 S TR ( read our review), the Power Cup TLR is on par in the rolling resistance tests, performs 15% better in the tread puncture test, and also offers an 8% increase in our wet grip tests.Here is part of the Merced Crit course which was just run last week. Advance through a few paces to see the road surface get worse and worse. Der Michelin hat subjektiv ähnlichen, extrem niedrigen Rollwiderstand wie der Conti, was für Michelin ein enormer Fortschritt ist. Der Reifen ist sehr schnell. Although they come in very close, the 28 mm version of the Michelin Power Cup TLR edges out the 25 mm version ( read our review) in most of our tests, making it an even stronger performer when compared to competing tires. We see a slightly lower rolling resistance, slightly better puncture resistance of both the tread and sidewall, and slightly better wet grip in both the center and edge tests. Finally, we subjected the tyres to a series of test rides in the real world, to judge their subjective ride quality, grip levels and comfort. Tyres on test

Puncture Force Blunt Needle: The Blunt needle has a flat tip and won't split the casing wires. To puncture the tire, the blunt needle has to cut the casing wires. If you're still on 15 or 17 mm rims, we definitely recommend the Power Cup TLR over the Grand Prix 5000 S TR. That recommendation is based on the narrowness of the tread relative to the casing, and the possibility that you might be off the tread if you're leaned way over in a hard corner. Seems more of a crit-racing or kamikaze road bike descending issue than a triathlon leg issue. I’ve always been a fan of this michelin tire line for 15 years -> krylion carbon to endurance to endurance v2. These power cup seem to have a lot of the puncture resistance of those tires but now in a better rolling resistance/performance format. If they have roughly the same puncture resistance I’d be willing to give them a shot. from what i understand, this pattern of textured centre and smooth shoulder is typically not good aerodynamically eitherFirstly, road bike tyre pressure usually requires the front and rear wheels to be inflated to the same pressure. The only exception to this would be the fitting of two different tyre models, each with a different recommended pressure. The next thing to consider with road bike tyre pressure is the tyre section width and most importantly the weight of the rider. The heavier the rider, the higher the bike's tyre pressure should be. the question to me is about that middle section which is very much standard cornering surface - why is it so differentiated from the central area (in the reverse way of what we often see) and what does that mean for grip and protection when cornering?

you're not going to touch the sidewall itself at any normal cornering lean, though you might get it close enough to the ground to expose it to gravel and class Grip: Efficient handling and stability on wet and dry surfaces thanks to the MICHELIN GUM-X compound Rolling efficiency: Speed and comfort thanks to tubeless-ready technology. Speed and efficiency inspired by MotoGPTM technology Puncture Force Sharp Needle: Pre-2021, this score was known as 'Puncture Resistance'. On some tires with weakly bonded casing wires, the sharp needle can split the casing wires resulting in a lower score. The MICHELIN POWER CUP Tubular uses technologies, including Gum-X Technology for optimised rolling efficiency, cornering grip and longevity; High Density Shield Technology for high levels of puncture resistance; a 2x 160 TPI casing which offers comfort at high operating pressures; and a Latex Tube to reduce weight, while at the same time enhancing puncture protection, rolling efficiency and comfort.Going after some marginal gains this year, so going to finally pull the trigger on some michelin power cup's. Also making the switch to latex tubes. Should be looking at about 5w+ gain on each wheel over michelin endurance v2 with butyl tubes, so that should be pretty significant. Hope puncture resistance is still good enough, but moving away from the desert and all the rando sharp things I feel a bit better running these daily. Fährt sich traumhaft, hat aber einen großen und einem weiteren Nachteil, die leider zur Abwertung führen müssen.
