ContinentalGrand Prix 5000 Road Tire(Return to Product Page)

My favorite tires... their performance is good enough for road races, and this is paired with puncture resistance as good as some of the clunker tires like gatorskins. FYIW for anyone considering 25s vs 23s, I switched to 25s a few years ago and have never looked back!

These tires are the gold standard in road tires. A handful might be lighter, faster or less expensive but youd be hard pressed to find all three. They setup easily on my wide rims and I run them at a low psi for a fast and comfortable ride. Theyre sturdy enough for crushed limestone and the early season potholes in Minnesota.

Biketiresdirect puts these tires on sale at a very low price periodically. These are my go to tires for reasonable wear rates, super fast rolling resistance and a price that cant be beat. The rubber is very supple making 23s feel as comfortable as 25s in other brands

My loyalty to Continental GP4000S II continues because the company is providing a good product that they also seek to improve. I have enjoyed these tires for for many years. I continue to research other types but my personal experience keeps me choosing that which I trust.

Love the tire , low roll resistance and long wear . supple as well .

Super Fast Tire, great grip, compliant ride, super durable. Wow, you never get all those things in one tire...that should tell you how great these are. Im converted, call me a super fan! Just but them!

fast and durable , used for training and racing

I have settled on the GP4000sII as an excellent tradeoff between road control versus wear. On occasion you will find them in sale in the mid to high 30 dollar range which is an excellent value. Decent rolling resistance for racing but also very comfortable for touring. I get very few flats when running these with standard tubes.

Whats to say - great deal on a great set of tires. Comfortable, fast, low (few) pinch flats compared to everything else Ive ridden.

These are really great tires. I bought them as a spare set because the price was half off the regular price due to it being the off season.

Smooth supple and Easley last up to three to four thousand miles

I have bought several sets of these tires over the last 5 years. I have them on both of my road bikes as well as my spouses hybrid bike. They are outstanding performers and I have yet to be disappointed by them in any way. As long as I can catch them on sale at biketiresdirect.com, Ill keep buying them!

My favorite tire for several years now. Ride quality is great and the durability is fantastic. A previous front racked up 5,800 miles and a paired rear hit 3,000. Catching a BTW sale is a great way to get these tires at a tremendous value.

I think of tires in terms of rolling resistance, grip, puncture resistance, weight, durability, and price. The Continental Grand Prix 4000 S II is my preferred option for an all around tire. The durability, puncture resistance, and price mean it's good enough for training, but the rolling resistance and weight mean it's also good enough for racing. If I could only have one tire, the GP 4000 would be my choice.

Very good, durable tire.

Great tire from continental less rollin resistance

I have been riding this tire now for about 5 years and I absolutely love the handling and longevity from a high performance tire.

Tires are great (based on previous purchase). Bought these for second bike. Best price I could find in google search.

Performance and durability are excellent. Value rating is based on sales price.

Love these tires. Been using them fro years now. Long lasting as wall a a great performer. I use them for traning, rideing and racing.
