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

I ride Gatorskins for 2,000 -3000 miles on gravely Montana pave before I have to replace

Really reliable

Great value for the money. Good on all road surfaces. Very few flat tires over the years and then mostly due to not changing them out when they are worn out.

Good tire. Always buy them when on sale. I have had problems with what I believe is the anti puncture layer on the sidewalls wanting to peel off.

Worried that these 28s would not fit but they fit great. I was amazed at the difference in my ride after using 25s. Very smooth ride.

Purchased a pair of these in 700c x 23 tires for an older road bike with limited tire clearance. I selected the Gatorskins for a combination of high puncture resistance, reasonable price, and good prior experiences with these in a wider size.

Great product. Good all weather commutingtraining tire. Very good flat resistance. Not the absolute best for high speed cornering, but more than adequate for any uses other than racing. This has been my go-to tire for years and I've ridden them in every type of condition. Even ridden through piles of glass without flatting. (although I did have to pick it all out afterwards - not a recommended behavior) Consistent high quality product that has yet to disappoint.

Use the tires on my Trek Domane. Love the toughness that resists flats - have been using these for several years with very few flats. Bought a wider size to accommodate my new bike with disc brakes and the resulting ride is noticeably smoother. Decent mileage.

I use it now for year round commuting on a fixie and I've used it in the past for training on a road bike.

I have no issues with this tire. They track well on all road surface types and grip the road well. Earlier this year I was caught in a rain storm (two inches in one hour) they held their grip on the road until I could find shelter.

This tire gives me confidence for long training rides where I am more concerned about endurance over speed.

I just bought these tires which are the best CP VALUES YOU CAN HAVE AND LAST LONGER AND FLAT FREE.

I use this tires most of the year for training and touring

I have over 3,000 miles on my last set of Gatorskins and as the wear dimples are almost gone, it was time to order another pair. First set of road tires that I have not experience any flats with where others have failed. I think they provide a good ride quality (though no the best) and are reasonably light weight (though not the lightest). However, as I don't race I value a trouble free ride where I may be 20 to 30 miles away from my starting point more than a few grams.

So far no punctures and they stick to the road in wet and dry conditions

On my bike.....

I just rode Tour de Blast, people were flatting left and right. I spoke with folks who suffered two and three flats on the ride. I couldn't find even a nick in my gatorskin.

Almost flat proof. Best tires Ive owned.

I have used these tires for the last couple of years with good results. Until now. My last set had about 2k miles on them and were starting to show wear so I changed them. Got a flat the next week, I don't know what I hit but it put a gash at the top of the sidewall. So I changed that tire after a week. Two weeks after I changed tires, I got another puncture, this one right through the center of the tire. I am no longer using this tire.

eat your spinach before installing

Good everyday tire, lucky to have never had a flat with these!
