For the Power Ones, curious what everyone's running for the track? and maybe the occasional street ride ? Thanks !

I believe that the power pures are the ones with elongated water chanels and the power ones are the ones that look like slicks with very small grooves.

I havent used either, but would say ~30psi in front and rear for street/canyons and about 38-40 if you are just commuting. Take Awalks advice for track psi.

If you're running the PowerOne, there's a significant difference between this year's and last year's tire even thought they look the same. The new ones have a much more flexible carcass.

Old I ran 31f 23.5r most of the time.
New I run 32f 28r most of the time.

The only way I could tell was in the flexibility of the sidewall. The new ones squish a lot more. There's a manufacturing date on the side, but all mine are packed in the trailer so I can't tell you how to read it.

Got a Michelin trackside vendor? Ask them.
