ContinentalGatorskin 700c Road Tire (Folding)(Return to Product Page)

Been using Gatorskins for about 5 years...tires and tubes. I have never had a flat. Oh, and I got an amazing price from bike tires direct.

I decide to buy the Gatorskins because I was getting too many flats on my Turbo Pro tires in my Specialized Roubaix. I'm very happy with my decision. The Gators perform great on the road plus I have peace of mind of not getting flats. Is still early days as I have only about 350 miles on them but very happy thus far.

I recently ordered a set of these through BTD and slapped them on my bike. What a great feeling of confidence!

These tires have never let me down and I like the wear divets that remind me when to replace them.

I am new to the road cycle game so I was looking for a tire that I goog learn on and grow with. Living in Northeast Pennsylvania means that roads are not the greatest so durability in a tire was essential for me. The gatorskin fits both of these points for me and I have been enjoying them quite a bit. This also was my first time changing my own tires and from all of the reviews I read they were said that the Gatorskin was difficult to put on the wheel. I will admit that the first one wasn't easy but once i figured out the nuances of the tire on that one the second was much easier to install. Looking forward to many miles on this set of tires. 282 so far.

I put the 32s on my cyclocross bike to ride around town and bike trails and could not be happier. I'm shocked how easy they roll, similar to my 23s on my road bike, but so much more comfortable going over Wisconsin winter heaved and snow plow battered roads. Because of these 32s, I'm planning on getting 25s for my road bike. I know 25s won't provide as much comfort as 32s but they should help a little with comfort without sacrificing much speed.

This tire has been very reliable! This is my third purchase of this tire and will continue to purchase!

Now I don't have much experience with bicycles and even less with tires, but I went to a few shops and they all said the same thing about these tires really good, but kind of expensive. With that said, I got these tires because of how much this place was selling them in comparison to the shops that I asked around. I've had these on my hybrid for about 2 months now? How do they ride? perfect. Haven't had an issue yet. I have ridden in light rain to hot days. I haven't had an issue yet! Again, I do have to say, I don't have much experience with bicycle tires so I may not have much to compare it to though.

Have used Gatorskins for my all-around road tire for several years. They are more resistant to puncture than other brands I have tried, they wear well and handle well. I like the folding version of the tire because it is lighter which is always an advantage.

I ride about 10k miles a year and ride only gatorskin now. I've tried other tires but these get by far the fewest flats and last between 6000-7000 miles. Best tire on the market in my opinion.

These tires are tough and BTD offered them at a great price. They are not as supple as other more expensive Conti tires but still a great product.

I have been using these tires for many years and they are the best for flat free rides. Won't use anything else

I wrote that I was disappointed with these tire when I had a flat on my first ride. Since then I have installed Mr. Tuffy tire liners, and now I am happy with these tire. They handle well and feel secure, except riding through puddles at an angle, and they sip out I approach water straight on and they are ok. Overall these are food tires, and I fell confident riding them as they are configured

Price was outstanding. Very durible tire

Excellent winter riding tires. Good for the commute to work and home. Not afraid of being stuck on the road due to a flat.

My wife has been using this road tire for 5 months and no flats to date. If you ride a lot of miles then this tire may be for you, tough, durable, and a comfortable ride.

I bought these for my commuter bike. After close to 2000 miles over two years, they still look almost brand new and I have yet to (knock on wood) have a puncture. These tires are light, smooth rolling, and most importantly, very tough. I have taken them on city streets, hard pack gravel, and dirt trails, and they work great.

I just retired my rear wheel's 700 x 25 Folding Gatorskin after 5700 miles. I'm 6'3 and weigh 230. I ride suburban and county road club rides in temperatures as low as 10 and as high as 95 at rolling speeds from 14 to 21 . I inflate to 110 psi before every ride. I've been very pleased with the comfort, grip, and durability of Gatorskin tires.

Michigan's road and trail surfaces are often in rough condition (ruts, ridges, & potholes) and strewn with debris damaging to bike tires. Since switching to Gatorskins two years ago, I have had no flats. They live up to their name!

Use the 700c x 28mm for fitness riding on all sorts of paved surfaces. Easy to mount with the wire bead and pump to 100 psi. The casing and tread have held up better than some of the other Conti Ultra tires. Probably have 500 miles and am very happy. I am 6'3" 285lbs.

I always get Gatorskins or hardshells when they are on sale. They hardly ever get flats compared to other tires i've tried...
