Long lasting, great riding

I am a 52 year old guy who rides year round in northern California. My typical ride is about 30 miles, longer when I can, and I log about 3500 miles per year.

These have become my go-to tires. They have that perfect balance of long wear, smooth, controlled ride, and puncture resistance. They're good in wet and dry weather. I have tried several other road tires - Vredestiens, some Michelins, as well as other Conti's, but these are the goldilocks of tires.

I have had them on for 11 months, and they've got about 3500 miles on them. I did rotate front to back about 1500 miles ago as the rear was starting to wear. They have plenty of little cuts, but have resisted puncture the whole year. This is quite a contrast to all the other tires I've used, which would have been cut through long ago by the hazards these guys have endured.

They are not cheap, but the are a great value. The only minus is that they are slightly less supple & grippy than the best riding road tires, but those tend to wear out in 500 miles. I recommend these ones to every rider who asks.

Thank you for your feedback.

Strong, good handling tire

These went on my aluminum Trek supported touring bike. I have over 1000 miles on them and they hardly look worn-the front still has moulding flash on it. No flats, handles great, easy to fit on my wheels. Excellent in damp and wet weather, too. Can't think of any downsides.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great tires for training, riding this spring

As the name suggests, these are great for spring training. Good low rolling resistance tires. I rode them for several hundred miles at really good speeds. Good for hard pack gravel, but not for the softer stuff. I will put them back on next spring or later this fall to complete the season.

Thank you for your feedback.

another great conti product

I use the conti grand prix 4 season tires in the early part of the cycling season. It's my go to tire when there's still a fair bit of winter sand and debris on the roads. These tires also perform very well in wet conditions. By the first week in June I switch over to standard grand prix 4000's.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great light touring tire

This is a great, fast-riding, excellent handling light touring tire. Using it on my aluminum Trek for supported touring rides. It's not the cheapest tire out there, but it works for my need and has high puncture resistance.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great tires

I've ridden these about 5,000 miles in suburban and urban commuting now with a total of 3 flats, two of which were valve problems so not the tires' fault. Also a couple of century rides on them. They're a little expensive but overall a great deal in light of their durability and worry-free performance.

Thank you for your feedback.

Very good winter training tires!

After 800 flat-less miles in Seattle winter road conditions these tires show very little wear. My front tire still has some of the center-line mold material visible. They're a good weight for off-season race training and have very good grip in wet conditions.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great tire for winter riding

I put these tires on as the weather turns cold. They provide better grip in the wet conditions, and also with all of the sand and salt on the roads. Not the cheapest tire, but worth the money.

Thank you for your feedback.

Real smooth riding tire on all kinds of road with the added confidence of puncture resistence.

This tire really smooths out all kinds of road surfaces and makes for long pleasant rides. With Continentals puncture resistence I never worry about flats out in the middle of no-where.

The only possible negative is they tend to ware a little more rapidly than some other tires.

Thank you for your feedback.

Pricey but worth it

Been using these tires year round for several years. A great compromise between the GP 4000 and Gatorskins, you get the suppleness and feel of the 4000s with the puncture resistance of Gatorskins. Well worth the extra money.

Thank you for your feedback.

Durable Winter Tire

I've only been running this tire for 400 miles, but they're great so far - no flats after rolling over plenty of glass. They're a bit heavy but worth it for the flat protection. They also have pretty good traction on wet roads. Great tire for Oregon winters!

Thank you for your feedback.

Conti makes a great tire, just wish it was a little better value....

I have ridden the roads on Continental tires for many years, and I feel that they make a great product. In my experience, their tires seem to wear quite well and resist flats, letting me spend more time riding and less time swapping tires & patching tubes. I recently bought a heavier hybridcommuter road bike that can use wider tires, but was unhappy with the tires that came with the bike. (The tread wore out very quickly, and anything sharper than a marshmallow seemed to poke right through them!) So I decided to try a pair of Grand Prix 4-Seasons, and have been happy with the perormance so far. And while I do appreciate the quality product, I just wish they were priced a little more reasonably. If I were ever to put on a new one of these tires, and then cut it shortly thereafter by hitting a road hazard, I might actually shed tears of financial anguish....

Thank you for your feedback.

Best tires ever

These Continental GP Four Season tires are the best I have ever had the experience with. I will purchase none other as long as these are available. They are exellent for repelling flats. They have a very tough liner that prevents piercings from thorns, nails etc. I have pulled several out of the tires with no leakeage. They hold very well in the corners and provide a very quiet smooth ride.

Thank you for your feedback.
