I put the tires on a 13 mm rim, which is what they are designed for. I measured the size, and it was 21.6 mm. This width has a significant impact on riding comfort. While it works well on asphalt, it becomes uncomfortable on cobblestone or gravel. I have a second bike with 25 mm Hutchinson tires, and I can confidently say that 25 mm is much more comfortable than 21 mm. Additionally, the tires look visually appealing on the aero rim

Michelin Lithion 4

Please note that the manufacturer claims a width of 25.5mm, provided they are mounted on rims with a 22mm internal width (22C), which, in my opinion, is unusual and seems misleading. In my case, I have old 13mm rims (13C typical of the 1990s), and they are a paltry 21mm once mounted and inflated to 5 bar. As for the tire itself, it seems light and has decent grip. However, they are difficult to mount, at least on my rims.

Tengan en cuenta que el fabricante anuncia un ancho de 25,5mm siempre y cuando estén montados en llantas con un ancho interior de 22mm (22C), lo cual bajo mi punto de vista, no es habitual y me parece engañoso. En mi caso, que tengo unas llantas antiguas de 13mm (13C típico de los años 90), se quedan en unos tristes 21mm una vez montados e inflados a 5 bares. En cuanto al neumático en si, parece ligero y el agarre es correcto. Eso si, son difíciles de montar, al menos en mis llantas.

Excellent

I had the Lithion-3 for years and really liked it but I wanted to try the version 4, they are definitely a step above in terms of road holding. I mounted the 700x25 but they look like a 23, going back I would have bought a 28. Excellent purchase in any case.

Avevo da anni i Lithion-3 che mi piacevano molto ma ho voluto provare la versione 4, sono decisamente uno step sopra come tenuta di strada. Ho montato il 700x25 ma l'aspetto è di un 23, tornando indietro avrei acquistato un 28. Ottimo acquisto in ogni caso.

Since I thought the tires were smaller than 700x25, I measured them with a caliper. Their width is 23 mm, not 25.

Como me pareció que los neumáticos eran más pequeños de 700x25, los medí con un calimetro. Su ancho mide 23 mm, no 25.

The tire feels very small, like 23c. Might be me, though, coming from rigid Bontrager T1 OEM that had very high sidewalls. However it’s still comfortable, fast and grippy, even in wet pavement. Lithion 4s are cheap and durable.
