Got a great price for tires and I always start the season with on my road bikes. I love the all black without the orange trim. I've only had one of the Gatorskins had a chunk taken out of it while riding. I was able to fill it with neoprene rubber and use it on my trainer and that's what I do when the tire starts to flatten out. Tough tires for me. I feel more confident in the Gatorskins as opposed to Gran Prix 5000 tires since I've seen a few blow out during an IM. I use to train and do Tri's and now it's for exercise, fun, and just to get out and away.

Gatorskins wear more slowly, get fewer flats and may be slightly easier to get on/off than GP 4 Seasons.

Nice reliable tire for my commuter bike. A good set of tires to have to prevent flats while riding to work.

Great training tire, a bit heavy but worth the comfort and reliability.

I've been riding Gatorskins for about 5 years now. They are my "go to" tire. Let me say, I don't race. These are the best tires for daily riding, group rides and touring! I generally ride 4 days a week, 25 to 60 miles. I hate flats! While they do weigh a bit more the light weight tires, i'll take that any day or getting a flat! In our area we have a lot of "chip seal" roads and other road debris especially during and just after winter, these take it all in stride! Most riders in our group are using these as well! They are tough to put on.

I've been using Gator Skins for a few years now, and nothing else will go on my bike. I recommend them to all my cycling friends. I will continue to use Gator Skins as long as I'm riding.

I am averaging about 3,000 miles on these tires riding on rough Montana roads. The tires are responsive and comfortable at the same time. Although you pay a little more up front, they last longer and give you a great value!

The Gatorskins offer good durability and reliability with reasonably good road feel. I don't race, so I am more concerned with avoiding flats when I might be 10 to 25 miles away from home or where my car is parked.

I have put about 1300 miles on them with no flats. I just use them for general riding. I do like the looks of the black edition.

These are great tires for making sure you are not going to get a flat in most cases, however they def ride alittle heavier then some other tires. They are good tho, they'll get the job done.

I've been using 25mm tires FOR EVER!!!! (over 20 years); love them. Switched to Conti Gatorskins back in 2008 or 2009. Lots of mileage, very few flats (a handful in all these years), decent ride (combination of compliance and traction), and when they're on sale (like these were), I buy a pair.

Great tire very flat proof and rolls and handles great.
Review by GJ
Used these tires for years, have had good luck with them, long wearing, and a decent tire for hard, competitive riding. Can't beat the price when on sale.
Review by Bob
Great looking, great performance and awesome puncture resistance.
Review by Hitch76
I have run these tires for many years, and have no complaints. Riding in the NW United States all year around, an no problem with flats! I keep them inflated solid before every ride, and I run them until no life is left. I have run the 25's and 32's.

I love these tires. They are tough as nails and give me the traction I need in dry and wet conditions. I would recommend them to anybody who wants a tire with great traction and great puncture resistance

It has gotten increasingly difficult to purchase the necessities for bicycling on the fly in the moment.
That's where bikeworks came in. A few simple clicks later, I was able to collect my purchases in a safe manner. Not only were these tires in a deep discount, they were also ready for me in short time.
Thank you bikeworks. I'll be seeing you again soon!

I have been using these tires since 2004 and I have been very pleased with their durability and puncture resistance. I always carry a spare tube, patches and a pump. I typically get 5000 + miles on the rear tire and much more on the front and only rarely need to fix a flat. By rarely , I mean maybe every couple of years.

I love these tires this is my 3rd pair of gatorskins. The black sidewalls look great. I ride in a city. I've pulled glass and metal out of these tires without getting a puncture. I highly recommend this product.
