Wanted to change to a wider tire for a better ride. The 5000 is a tough tire with excellent rolling resistance and traction.
Review by Michigan biker
This tire is a great balance between light weight and puncture protection. I use it on my Cannondale hybrid bike, and get excellent millage also.
Review by West Sider Rider
I've been a fan of Conti road tires for years and these are the best clincher road tires yet. They're not the most puncture proof but I rarely have problems even with the debris strewn roads of west Los Angeles. Their suppleness is excellent and they're reasonably durable.

This is a great tire. It has great traction, really sticks to the road in curves, and is pretty resistant to flats.
Review by Mike L
Reliable, low rolling resistance and lightweight.
Review by Nish
The best allrounder in the field, brought to a whole new performance level. Ride faster, more comfortable, and with increased puncture protection. Made to make you better.

Road cycling in south FL with ride lengths of 30 - 70 miles is typical for me now. Continental tires are smooth-rolling, dependable, and have a good grip on the road. I know what to expect out of them and it's the tire I look for when reordering.

I have been using Continental tires for years. I find them very durable and easy to install, especially the new 5000 tire.
Review by Monica
Just completed a 50 mile ride out to Corbett yesterday from Northeast Portland and hit a lot of glass but not a single flat because these tires are fantastic and not prone to flats.
I put at least 5000 miles a year on my bike and I've got a whole year with these tires and only one flat

I have used these tires for 12 years and I've never had problems. Lots of chip seal, lots of crap in bike lanes and even ride on some forestry roads and that's tires perform better than I could have ever expected!! I have gotten 6800 miles on 1 set of these tires this year and the wear dots probably have another 2000 miles to go. They have handled exceptional well in the Oregon rain! I highly recommend these tires!

I've been a Continental Grand Prix rider for years. When I upgraded my bike to use a 700/28 I couldn't believe the increased comfort and handling on downhills. Durability is key; I'm a road biker on backroads that could use a lot of TLC and I've never been let down with the Grand Prix 5000 Road Tire. I have recommended it to my group and to anyone looking for a great tire.

Always my go to road tires. Smooth on the roads here in the Pacific Northwest. Contis have been on my whelk for the past 25+ years! If it's works for you, don't change it!

Continental is fabulous and Western's prices are the best, you cannot go wrong.

You already know, these are great. The gold standard of tubed road tires.

You know the script. GPs are great tires and the 5000 is the next iteration of this greatness. Shop around. Compare. Then get another set of GPs. They are a beast to get on the first time though...

Great tires. Have always run Continental tires on my road bike. Same wear but better feel than the old 4000s.
Review by Andy Mc
Have had these for about 6 weeks. They roll nicely and are lighter than my Michelin Power Endurance. Time will tell how long they last but ' so far so good'. They seem to grip the road well on descents and through curves. I bought the 28mm and I like the feel of them although for some reason they don't look as wide as the Michelins

You will love these tires especially at this price.
