ContinentalGrand Prix 5000 Road Tire(Return to Product Page)

I will not ride on anything else, GP5000s are that good. I even use their Conti Race 28 inner tubes.

The Grand Prix 5000s held up well to the chip seal and gravel sections of the Tour De Zona no flats no loss of air. they rolled well and had great grip.

Got the 28c recently, noticeably smoother and grippier than the 25c at slightly lower psi and based on initial impressions, can't say I feel any slower. Cornering does feel more secure and if the 28's are supposed to perform better in wet conditions than the 25's then even better as the 25's worked fine for me in the rain. Will see how long these last. So far no punctures on my 25's after 2000 miles but perhaps I just jinxed myself...

I have had serious issues fitting to 2 different sets of Mavic wheels. No way I am using these on carbon wheels. This is unfortunate considering I have used these a lot in the past.

The Continental makes for a smooth comfortable ride. They absorb some of the roughness of the road. I also found them to be puncture resistant. I had only two flats all year. For a tire that grips so well in the corners, they wear very well.

Best bike tires on the market hands down

I've amassed 2600 miles on these Conti GP 5k tires. The rear tire is just now showing the flat wear so time to rotate. No flats (did I jinx myself here?). I've ordered another on sale already. Good value when they are the Deal of the Day.

The Conti 5000s are great. Not only do they roll true to size, but they last for thousands of miles. Put 4000 on a set I installed in June...and now am thinking I finally need to replace them. Only two flats all season...and one was in my driveway! Great value.

Started using these Conties again and nice and sticky and good flat protection. I train and race on these.

You can't go wrong with these, pricey but when on sale can be a good buy, stock up when on sale.

Road riding lots of road riding, at my age (68) it seems like the right thing to do, and the Grand Prix 5000s are great tires to do lots of miles on, I really have never had a problem with them!

Love these tires. Light, fast, durable and sticky! I've ridden numerous other tires and these are the best....250 mile training week, crit, social ride..... it doesn't matter these tires do it all!

I've been running these since using up the last of my Condo 4000 tires. Longevity seems about the same. Did lose one 5000 to a sidewall cut but the rock I hit probably would have taken out the 4000 as well. Good ride.

Started using the GP 5000 when the 4000 S II stopped being made. I can't say I really notice a difference to the 4000 S II, but still get great roll with them, and have only had 1 flat in 3.5 years of riding (roughly 8000 miles). Purchased when on sale, and use them exclusively. I am a 205 lb rider using the 23mm version, but like the way they ride and handle.

I only use GP5000. For me it's the best tire out there. Cost comparable to others of the smae type. Pretty good at resisting flats.

I've ridden them 325 miles with no problems. I don't know how the tire compares to the gp4000's on my other bike, it was aluminum with aluminum wheels. The new bike is CF with CF wheels. I can say they ride nice but get them on sale if you can.

These 32mm GP 5000 replaced 28 mm Gatorskins. I wanted 28s and they were out so decided to try the 32s since wide tires are all the rage. It may be my imagination but they seem heavier and slower. My times aren't much different but my ride feels more sluggish. I'm not upset with the tires but I'm not excited about them either. They were a good value.

I guess my reaction to these is tainted because I expected the 5000s to be the next improved version of the 4000's. Instead I found a totally different tire - not as tough, not as long lasting and not worth the price. And the worst part is I can't find the 4000s anywhere.

This is my third set on my bike, second time I've purchased BTD. I received the tires very quickly. 5k last about 2500 mi or more. Thorn resistant. Side walls are resistant to tears and other road debris.
