Review by Andrew RReviewed 10/23/2020by Andrew RCompetitive RacerAustin TX2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.Awesome tiresWhat can you say, they're Conti 4 Seasons. Ran the 28mm version of these tires for 1000s of miles without a flat (and ride though plenty of glass, wires and nasty bits).
They seem to provide similar protection to the Gatorskins but way more supple/lower weight.

Review by DavidReviewed 9/21/2020by DavidCycling EnthusiastBethlehem, PANice riding tireRecently changed my selection of tires to the Continental Grand Prix 4-Season. Logged close to a 1000 miles, still rides well. Price for this tire is stiff, hoping to see price reduction soon.

Review by gfparsonsReviewed 9/14/2020by gfparsonsCycling EnthusiastClark County, WAGood Flat Protection with Lower Rolling ResistancePerfect rear tire on my new Cannondale Super Six for rough roads, chip seal, debris. Much lighter than my previous go-to, Gatorskins. Great bridge between training and racing tires. More expensive, but worth it.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 9/17/2020by AnonymouscamasConti Grand Prix 4-seasonLove these tires. My go to as I feel safe in any riding condition. They grip the road well and stick well when cornering. I usually wait until they go on sale but well worth the price if you have to buy at regular selling price. I used to ride Gator Skins (which are great all purpose tires) but now I only ride the 4-seasons.

Review by KeithReviewed 9/3/2020by KeithCycling EnthusiastCorvallis, ORContinental makes great tiresI couldn't decide between these or Gatorskins, but I like the all-black look. I had to replace one destroyed by a piece of metal that would have taken out any tire short of a Schwalbe Marathon. The Marathons are like truck tires, so the Conti's are a much better compromise between toughness and performance.

Review by AaronReviewed 9/4/2020by AaronFarmingtonNo issuesI've put several hundred miles on this tire already. No flats and great traction. Bike handles like a totally different bike in a good way! I'll be buying these for my road bike as long as they're available.

Review by EricReviewed 8/24/2020by EricCA1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.It�s good for tough roads. If you're used to fast 4000s or 5000.
You are not going to like it. It�s rolling resistant is not as good as gp 4000. But it�s tough on side wall cuts and grippy. Not the fastest tire for speed, it�s good for training set of tires or commute. So far so good as I have intended to use for.

Review by JeffD0Reviewed 6/25/2020by JeffD0Cycling EnthusiastMississippi0 of 1 customers found this review helpful.Great tire with fair rolling resistance and very good puncture resistanceI've used Continental 4 Seasons for several years on my road bike (Lynskey R360). I have rarely had a flat. Are they the lowest rolling resistance tires out there, no they are not but they are stable and will take a lot of abuse. I like the black edition because it looks good on my titanium frame.

Review by Silver GhostReviewed 6/26/2020by Silver GhostCycling EnthusiastThe Villages, FLExcellent tire for tandeems.Continental has always made great tires for tandems. The only problem I noted in the past has been with the brown colored side walls on some tire. It seems that UV light would break down the sidewall fibers causing them to break prematurely. These Continental Grand Prix 4-Season Special Edition Black has eliminated this problem by covering the side walls with a black rubber coating. I also find that when using the 28 and 32mm tires on regular width rims allows for a round tread profile. This offers good straight line and cornering stability.

Review by AurenReviewed 6/27/2020by Aurennapa, CAGreat all around tireI bought these on sale and put both on my road bike. In almost 5,000 miles I only got 2 or 3 flats Before the rear needed replacing. The front lasted a bit longer, but soon needed replacing, too. Definitely great flat protection and long wear-especially for the sale price.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 2/17/2020by AnonymousCycling EnthusiastLos Angeles1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.Fabulous tireOn the roads in and around Los Angeles. The 4Season has a thicker sidewall than the 4000 - better flat protection for the heavier rider or urban rider. Easy on, easy off - much better than the Gatorskins. Pricier than Gatorskins but you'll be glad to have spent the extra money on a lighter, durable, and more pliable tire.

Review by Debby Brown Reviewed 1/10/2022by Debby Brown Phoenix, AZContinental 4 season tiresThese tires are AWESOME!! I ride 500 miles a month and am on my second purchase. Rode for a year and only 1 flat. A must tire for women who ride solo a lot.

Review by lhidayReviewed 1/20/2020by lhidayCompetitive RacerSouthwets Washington 1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.great quality continuesthese four-season tires are great for winter riding and last longer than I expected. I also use them on the trainer and compared to the wear on other tires, these last significantly longer. I don't like the cost of Continentals in general, but Bike Tires Direct helps make them affordable for the average Joe Cyclist. Thanks!

Review by DonWAReviewed 1/17/2020by DonWACycling EnthusiastPalatine, IL4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.Good TireThese tires will obviously not be as light as the GP4000's or GP5000's that I put on my road bikes but on my commuter bike they are perfect. They provide a really nice ride. If you get caught in wet weather they channel water away from the bike very effectively. A really solid tire. Get them on sale and they would be hard to beat.
