I also powder a new tire before installing it.Put a Tablespoon full in it,and work it around,like puuting flour in a cakepan.

Michelin? recommends seating the tire starting OPPOSITE the valve stem,and finishing at the valve stem.Semms curious,but I think it is easier.

I have noticed on Michelin's two wheel website, http://tinyurl.com/2juw5e , that they have a guide showing the ride characteristics of each tire. I didn't see any cycle tires that showed they provided a high level of comfort. The pro race2 seem to be good tires but maybe not necessarily made for long club rides where comfort is more important than performance.

After I go through the the Conti GP 4000s I have now, I will probabaly go back to the Conti GP 4-Season, go with a Michelin or try the Vredestein Fortezzas.

Any experience with the Vredestein Fortezzas?
