Product Information

Full details

The Michelin Pro5 TLR Folding Road Tyre is designed for performance-focused road cyclists who demand a balance of high-speed rolling efficiency and long-term durability. It is an ideal upgrade for riders transitioning to a tubeless setup who want to reduce rolling resistance without sacrificing puncture protection. While it offers excellent grip and suppleness, users should note that as a high-performance tire, it requires precise pressure management and proper tubeless installation techniques to ensure optimal airtightness and longevity.

FAQs

Can I use inner tubes with the Pro5 TLR?

Yes, this tire is compatible with inner tubes, although it is optimized for tubeless performance.

How often should I add sealant?

You should check your sealant levels every 3 to 6 months depending on your local climate and how often you ride.

What is the recommended rim width for the 40mm version?

The tire is versatile, but a rim with an internal width between 19mm and 25mm is recommended for the 40mm size to achieve the best profile.

Is the tire directional?

Yes, check the sidewall for a rotation arrow to ensure the tread pattern is oriented correctly for water displacement and grip.

What is the maximum pressure for this tire?

Always adhere to the maximum pressure stamped on the tire sidewall, though tubeless users typically run significantly lower pressures.

Troubleshooting

Tire loses air pressure rapidly

Check the valve core tightness and ensure the rim tape is not compromised. Add more sealant if necessary.

Difficult to seat the bead on the rim

Use a bead lubricant or a mixture of soapy water on the tire bead to help it slip into place, and ensure the bead is positioned in the deepest part of the rim channel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best results, ensure your rims are tubeless-compatible and use high-quality rim tape. When mounting, keep the beads in the center channel of the rim to ease installation. Always use a generous amount of fresh tubeless sealant to ensure the tire holds pressure. Check your tire pressure before every ride to ensure you are within the manufacturer's recommended range for your body weight and road conditions. Regularly inspect the tread for embedded shards and rotate your tires every 2,000 to 3,000 kilometers to ensure even wear.
