POWER TIME TRIAL vs Pace review

In this entry we are going to compare and review Michelin POWER TIME TRIAL vs Maxxis Pace tyres. Both manufactured by different brands, Michelin and Maxxis respectively, these tyres have been designed to be used for different purposes. Whilst Michelin POWER TIME TRIAL is better for road activities, Maxxis Pace is a great choice if your needs are more aligned to mountain activities.

Technologies

EXO An extremely cut-resistant and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls of select mountain tires. This densely woven fabric is also lightweight and highly flexible, ensuring that the performance of the tire remains unaffected. Choose EXO Protection for exceptionally rocky, treacherous trails where the chance of sidewall cuts and abrasions is high.
Tubeless Ready Tubeless tires provide the rider with many benefits: the ability to run lower air pressures, which improves traction; lower rolling resistance when compared to a tube-type tire; and less chance of flatting because there is no tube. Liquid sealants should only be used in the following types of tires: tubeless road, tubular, and tubeless ready. The use of liquid sealants in any other Maxxis tire will void the warranty.
