ContinentalGrand Prix 5000 Road Tire(Return to Product Page)

The tire itself is amazing and one of the lowest rolling resistance tires out there. Have pretty much switched over exclusively to this. The performance is phenomenal and looks good too. Love the cream color. Biketiresdirect is also amazing. Customer service has always been stellar and shipping is always fast.

This is the tire that you are fancy, if you just want to ride around or even race! Usually racing tires won't last, due to their compound rubber technology. But this handles really well + cornering with tires is really safe, they grip so well that you don't even worry about .

These have been my go to tires for a while now. Never had a flat with them and they feel really slick and fast. Putting them on is a bit of a hassle but with decent tire levers its not a big deal.

I went back to these tires after trying multiple other brands and found these just last longer and are significantly better for a puncture protection. They typically ride on gravel roads and show no scarring after hundreds of miles.

These tires r recommended as good tires but are nearly impossible to get on the rim. They are just way to tight, if I ever get a flat there won't be any changing along side the road cause I won't have the strength

I have used Contis for years and have made the transition to their tubeless. During the pandemic I tried another brand (supply chain) and they didn't have the same road feel, and durability was also less. I have continental tires on all of my bikes

The Conti GP5K is probably today's go-to standard for a basic all around tire. I don't race, so I can't comment on it's performance under those conditions. But for the average rider, these tires roll very smoothly, are relatively grippy, and have pretty long tread life. I have them on all my bikes.

Bought this tyres to replace sworks turbo tyres, Alot forgiving and bullet proof from pinch flats, Bike tires direct is very prompt and had it shipped same day, Customer service was very helpful and on top my issue when they sent me a defective tyres, after having assessed the situation, they sent me a new tyre right away! thank you!

This is used on my performance titanium bike. Very good durability. Use then on paved backroads and sometimes crushed stone trails common as rec trails in WI.

A little pricey, but probably still a good value considering tire life.

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.

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.

Smooth rolling and tough as nails

I've been riding on this tire from its beginning, it meets all the needs of experienced riders. It's trusted, reliable and comfortable.

Excellent good traction and long lasting

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.

Been riding these for years and they haven't failed me yet

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.

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.

Great tire. I use tubes and very few flats. Rolls and grips well. Mileage varies dependent on terrain but got about 4,000 out of my last set.
