Great every day tire.

I have been buying these for years when they come up on the daily special. It's a great price on a great tire.

Thank you for your feedback.

Durable, Smooth Riding Tire

I switched from 25's to these 700x28's. Significantly smoother ride from tires I have long used for their durability and puncture resistance.

Thank you for your feedback.

How NOT to get a flat

These are amazing tires-virtually puncture proof. These tires make such a difference-no flats, ride well and therefore, make my rides worry free.

Thank you for your feedback.

Seems to roll with a bit less resistance than the Gatorskin Hardshell

This is the first Gatorskin Black Edition I have purchased. I normally get 9,000 miles a year out of my Continental Hardshell's and I believe I will get the same out of the Black Edition.

Thank you for your feedback.

Nice tires

I rode them 2600 miles this year and only got one flat at the end of the season which is pretty good considering sharing the road with metal recycling trucks.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great tires.

Love the black-wall. Sexy high quality tire with no loss of speed while gaining durability. Two 70.3's on them and they look and feel brand new

Fast, Smooth & Reliable

Really just the best all around. Don't be fooled they ride as well as any more expensive tires just last longer, with fewer to No Flats. Made in Germany

I highly recommend these tires. They we recommended to me by a friend who rode a lot. He swore by them so I thought I'd give them a try. I've had them on my road bike ever since.

These tires ride extremely well, and provide good traction under a variety of weather conditions. They are very durable. I have not had a flat since I started using these.

Thank you for your feedback.

Excellent tires

I have been using Continental Gatorskin tires for years and they have never let me down. Outstanding puncture resistance and excellent longevity. They really go the distance and then some.

Excellent!

I, for a short time, tried out Continental 5000. But here in southern Utah they were simply too fragile. I switched back to the Gartorskins and my puncture frequency dropped considerably.
