ContinentalGrand Prix 5000 Road Tire(Return to Product Page)

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.

Amazing performance and comfort.

I have used these for some years. I'm no lightweight (200 lbs.), so flats are an issue for me. I have had uniformly good luck with Grand Prix 5000's - particularly when they are new. They ride and corner well. I replace them about every 2500 miles - I notice that at that wear level I start getting flats.

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

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.

Because of the weather conditions in my area I haven't had a chance to ride but my experience with the tires so far are great. They were easy to install them and I am looking forward to get on the trails in spring and try them.

It took six months to receive the new tires with >20 shipping updates with new dates. The price of the tires on this site was slightly lower when the tires actually did ship compared to when I placed the order, but I still got charged the original price.

Been using Continental 4000 and now 5000's for several years and I don't think they can be beat for overall performance, durability and flat resistance. I believe I will be staying with these tires for the foreseeable future.

In the last couple of years, I changed up from GP 4000 Contis to these 5000s and they are a subtle improvement with better sidewall resistance to flats. During my career I have ridden everything from $10 east European tubulars to Vittorias and Michelins. These Contis work well in the wet as well as the dry - and for winter I put on the 4-Season Contis in a wider fit.

These tires ride very smoothly and with excellent grip. Also very durable...have not punctured even riding on winter roads with tons of debris. Why can't the street sweeper sweep the bike lanes? I got a great sale price on them and bought a set of 25 and 28 mm and one set of tubeless. They are currently the workhorse tires for me and the 25s are light enough to race too.

As a long term user of the Grand Prix 4000, the 5000 seem to be a slight upgrade. The tire handles and performs well. The 5000 series tire definitely wears much faster than the older 4000. The maximum mileage is in the 3000 mile range.

These feel very smooth and fast, and mounted without drama. I use them on a Trek Emonda that I reserve for long rides or intense workouts, not daily commuting. They feel better than the OEM Bontragers that were on the bike, which I replaced because I could feel and see were already losing their shape after only 3,000 miles.

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...

Continental easiest to install and beads up perfect with little effort

GP 5000 good all around tires and they have very competitive price at BIKE Tire direct.
