ContinentalGrand Prix 5000 Road Tire(Return to Product Page)

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.

Feels good

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.

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

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.

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...

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

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.

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!

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.

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.
