ContinentalGrand Prix 5000 Road Tire(Return to Product Page)

Feels good

Nice rolling resistance and quite puncture resistant. Nice durability as well.

This is basically the brand and model where I see most of my cycling friends use. Decided to try it out and so far so good. Handles better than what I had. Nothing technical in this review. I average at least 100 miles a week for this spring/ summer time so I definitely ride it out.

Takes a bit of work to get the bead over the rim the first time, otherwise a great tire.

Great tires. I wish they were a little cheaper but it is what it is. I get 3-4,00 miles out of mine.

I ride thousands of miles a year and have used many major brands including Continental. I used the 400 for years and tried the 5000 when it came out. Great rolling resistance, smooth comfortable feel and very few punctures. I got close to 3000 miles on the rear tire and almost 6000 on the front. Great value and extremely reliable. Would recommend to any road bike rider.

These tires are very smooth riding. I find good mileage from the tires as well. Good value overall

Been riding these tires for a long time. Only thing that is a con, they can be hard to put on (or it could be my 78 yr old hands)

Got the look I wanted with the performance I already knew and the price was right

I held off on upgrading tires, but wish I had done so sooner. I ran Conti Gatorskins 23ml for years -- I'm now 4 rides into Conti GP5000 25ml and noticed the ride quality (and speed!) difference immediately.

Light weight, good grip, and comfortable riding. My favorite road tire.

IMO still the best tires. I use tubes, both latex, and TPU. Don't care for the hassle of tubeless. Rugged, fast, great cornering.

Fast, durable, light. Not aware of anything better.

Durable, fast rolling, easy to install tire. Have used Continental's for years. The 5000 just improves on earlier models.

Spring has sprung so these go back into the rotation. Deep dish or shallow carbon "weekend" wheels with GP5000 and latex tubes are the best. Period.

Can't touch this tubeless. Just ask DKQS; they should know. Don't know how it gets better than this, but technology and materials are ever evolving. Conti is always cutting the path.

These tires provide a very well rounded repertoire of desirable characteristics. For the money, they have excellent grip, good longevity, and very good puncture resistance. I'm on my second set now!

These are actually fairly true to size, the previous GP4000's were way oversized.

The ride and handling feel the same as the GP4000's. I don't notice a difference in speed

Cant comment on flat protection and don't wish to jinx myself but should be the same or better.

I've been using Continental tires for years....first the GP 4000, the GP 4000 - II, the 4 Seasons, the Gatorskins.....and now the GP 5000!

All great tires that are durable and reliable! I use the GP 5000's on both my Tarmac and Roubaix with excellent results.

If you have worn out tires just about any tire is an upgrade. These are certainly worth snagging when in the market. I've had no issues seating them on the wheel, they handle decent, and so far no flats. After a few rides I am a bit dubious of their life, but you can't have everything. I would consider these again if I get some miles out of these. If they wear quickly (as I fear) I'd probably go another direction for the money.

Continental GP5000 tires are the only ones I use. I put 2 on my bike at the beginning of every year. They always last the 8,000 or so miles I put on them. Use standard tube and they almost never flat. They corner well and ride smooth too.
