ContinentalGatorskin Black Edition 700c Road Tire(Return to Product Page)

...but with the durability comes weight. Most times riding in the cascade foothills Ill take that trade every day, riding over glass and general roadside debris. There are days when Id like a lighter tire for climbing, but not often. Black edition looks pretty sweet.

Use these on my commuter (road set-up). Love 'em. Ride everyday, no flats.

Not the lightest tire, they are bombproof.

Been riding these for years, moved to 28mm size for more comfortable feel. A bit heavy but good puncture resistance and sturdy, lasting tread, a very good tire.

Sure it's a bit heavier than the 5000, but the added weight beats a puncture tire change

Good reliable training tire, handles winter roads well. Little on the heavy side but unless you are a pro these are more than adequate even for harder, faster rides.

Very good quality, and size and weight vs price. Hard to punch it if you use the correct pressure.

Black is beautiful!

!!!!

These are the best all-around tires money can buy, only tires I have purchased for the last, who knows how many years. How could Continental make these tires any better? BAM! black sidewalls!

This is my go to spring and fall tire. When there's usually a lot of debris on the roads these tires are great. They're not too heavy and I could ride them all season.

Order arrived promptly.

Love the gator skins for my tandem. Not worried about weight. Don't want flats

The tire is on my carbon frame road bike used on pavement (mostly) in southern New England. Good handling on dry surfaces, I generally avoid wet conditions if possible.

Rode a couple hundred miles on them. They ride nice no punctures and minimal wear considering their rolling under ~260lbs.

I have used Continental Gatorskins for years. They're a great, durable training tire option for a variety of conditions.

All rides are paved roads so far so good after 1200 miles

I ride a circut type course with many turns. This tire is smooth and grippy.

Have been using Gatorskins for a few years and love them. I have rare puncture flats and they last a long time.

mounted a pair on one of my road bikes. They were easy to mount.

Very good tires. Feel supple, provide cornering, and are capable of taking on gravel.

I ride about 400 hundred miles a month on black top. There isn't anything I don't like about them.
