Excellent Race tires once you get them on!

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

Went back to these

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

Too tight

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

Thank you for your feedback.

Best road tire

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

Thank you for your feedback.

Great All Around Tire

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best all around tire for comfort, lightness, performance and wear.

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

Light and smooth but delicate

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

Top of the Line

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

Tough & Reliable

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.

Feel smooth and fast

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

Very content

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

Very noticable difference

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!
