Mounted up these Michelin’s for our recently completed all pavement USA 4 corners ride.
They certainly make the Tenere into a much quieter road holding ride than the Mitas E-O7s I normally run. They did the ride and I removed the rear Road 5 at 18,500km with a bit left, but it was pretty well done so I’m giving the Mitas Terra Force R 90-10 rear a try for our upcoming 3 flags ride in Sept.
It seems to be a fairly new tire from Mitas with not much feedback on it yet. Ive still got the Michelin Pilot Road 4 Trail on the front with what looks to be enough tread left for the upcoming ride. So far The Terra Force is doing fine with a very slight hum at speed but to soon to know how it’s wet weather or wear will be like.
I did notice it’s a very stiff carcass when it came to mounting. Much more along the lines of an E-07 compared to the much softer Michelin Road 5 rear I took off.
