Used the 32mm with tubes for a month and about 500 miles after a 6 month back order. I ran over something that put a 1 inch slice in the rear and now that tire is useless. Maybe just bad luck but will not order them again. I'll stick with the 4-season or gatorskin.

The Conti GP 5000 is a great tire. They corner and roll well and rarely flat. I highly recommend them and Bike Tires Direct.

I have used Continental tires for over 30 years and absolutely love them

Got the 28 mm version. Extraordinarily comfortable especially on chip seal roads which are very common where I live. Great grip on wet roads, too. A little pricey, but if you want to avoid disappointment, always buy the best; and these are the best.

As a weekend cyclist I don't need top of the line tires. These tires work well and hold up on the sorry roads I I'm forced to ride.

6000 mile per year road rider and have easily gotten 5000+ miles regularly on them.

These tires are awesome. They move fast, but they don't wear fast. The tan sidewalls also look pretty sweet, which of course is the most important part of cycling...

I use these tires on my road bike, I probably get about 3000 miles for a set. They ride well, durable, just a great road tire to use.

Great tires and lowest price available!

Ride smooth, feel fast, not enough miles to comment on puncture resistance. Moved to these from a pair of Pro Endurance 4's and they are a tighter fit for sure but nothing I'm concerned about if I have to make a change on the road.

Great grip of the road; resists glass and other sharps items that can cause flats;
A beast to change/put on.
Review by Slim Jim
I was a fan of Continental tires (routinely purchasing Gatorskins in the past).
However, when I got my first flat with this tire, I broke a tire lever removing it, and I could not remount the tire without another set of hands to assist me.
I bought two tires and returned one of them after my experience fixing the flat with the first one. I don't want to be stranded if I get a flat and no one is around to help me removing and remounting the tire.

No issues going on DT Swiss 421 rims. Loved the look with dark grey bike and tan sidewall. Feels softer and grippier than Michelin Power, Specialized Turbo Pro and Vitoria Rubino. No issues with flat protection on Houston streets and bayous. Bought in 28 and installed width is 29mm on 20mm internal wheel.
Review by Old guy in KC
I am not a hot shot hi speed rider but more like an old guy looking for every advantage. I have ridden on Conti 4000 since they came out and when I got a new bike I upgraded to the 5000. The improvement was noticeable and when I experienced a really bad cut in my 5000 I ordered a new one. I don't think it is my imagination that the newer 5000 I bought is even better than the originals. Plus the sidewalls give me that '56 Chevy look!

I placed an order in Oct 2021 and received these tires in January (28cm). Conti tires are my mainstays and can already tell a difference.
The last set (another brand) punctured with relative frequency and the thought of a possible puncture was always present.
Time will tell with this set, but experience with Conti tires leads me to believe I'm in good shape.
