Fantastic upgrade

The pair of GP5000 S TR were an amazing upgrade on my bike. At 493g for the pair (700x26), these were massive 305g weight savings over the stock tires on my Giant TCR Pro 1. I'm running these on hookless rims in tubeless configuration with PSI 67 front and 71 rear. The weight savings were noticeable when you come up to speed. It is easier to hold your speed with less effort.

The only downside to this product is that they are still quite pricey. Hopefully in some months we will see a price drop.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best tires I've ever ridden

If you're switching to tubeless, this is the spring/summer tire for you. Supple, smooth, durable, and super easy to mount. Rides well in damp conditions; haven't tried in the true wet of Oregon.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best road tire I've ever ridden

I've had about all the Conti road tires over the past 20yrs riding and racing. Clinchers, tubulars, & tubless. I was not a big fan of the 4000s and thought the 5000s were not bad. But then I ordered these TLs (28mm) & mounted on a set of Cadex 42s and am still shocked at how amazing they feel. I thought tires are tires, but these ride like tubulars on another level. I run around 80psi and the grip on corners is noticeable even in the wet. I used to dread chip & seal road surface but now look forward to it as these tires will make it feel like fresh pave. I've only had them for about 1K miles but have had zero problems. They are well worth the price. Ordering another set.

Thank you for your feedback.

Pleased so far.

I have been riding Continentals for the past 7 years. This is my first pair of TR tires. I used Conti 5000 25C with tubes previously and thought I would try tubeless. Mounted the 28C 5000 S TR on new Hunt Rims without much ado after watching a couple videos. Was able to inflate with a regular floor pump (possibly due to design of tire and rims). I have a Trek Domane and ride exclusively on the road. After 600+ miles I can say I have had no issues and the ride and handling are great. I am confident in the tire.

Thank you for your feedback.

Fast, Low rolling resistance, look great, solid performance

This is my second set of Grand Prix 5000str tires. I'm sold on this product. I really appreciate the grip that these tires have going into and out of a corner with speed. It's a real confidence booster.

Thank you for your feedback.

Everything it's advertised to be.

California's Central Valley might be flat but the adjacent Sierra Mountains are not. Riding from home I get a great mix of flat terrain and climbs of up to 14% - 16% and even 19%.

The GP 5000S TR has very low rolling resistance, excellent durability and climbs, descends and corners better than any tire I have ridden.

I highly recommend this tire.

Thank you for your feedback.

Perfect all rounder

Much easier to mount than my previous GP5k TL tires. Still far from the easiest, but not nearly as many cuss words, beer and planetary alignment required to get these things on. Fast as always, pretty resistant to punctures and a nice ride. Conti continues to impress me.

Thank you for your feedback.

Smooth, fast-rolling, and durable

I had great experience using Contintental's GP line of clincher tires and this tire in tubeless configure delivers on that promise. These were easy to seat on the initial install. These tires perform just as well as the Vittoria Corsa TLRs that preceded them and they seem to be a bit more durable as well. Even on sale, they are pricey, hence only 4 stars on value.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great Tires

Came back to these after a year on a cheaper set from a different brand. I was immediately reminded how much tire choice impacts the quality of your ride. These are excellent. Expensive, but no more so than other premium tires.

Thank you for your feedback.

Fast and grippy

Bought two sets of 32s and have set these up tubeless on two of our bikes (Canyon Endurace with DT Swiss wheels and Trek Domane with Bontrager Aeolus wheels). I was able to mount them by hand on both sets of wheels but it does take some effort. They certainly feel faster than stock tires and are grippy in dry and wet conditions. Fast, smooth, and comfortable.

Thank you for your feedback.

Feels great, wears out kind of quick, probably still worth it.

After about 1500 miles the rear has plenty of cuts and a decent amount of wear, more than half way to the garbage can. The front still looks pretty good. Got a few flats on the rear in the last couple hundred miles.

Thank you for your feedback.

Very good tire

Very good tire. Never had a problem. They last a long time. The one down side is, they are tubeless tires and are hard to get on.

My Favorite Tire

Smooth ride, durable, sticky. Ride as tubeless and while they require some skill to mount, they stay on. Hit a hole hard enough to bend an aluminum rim without deflating or unmounting.

Great tire

I've tried many tires, most are good. These are just good in all the areas. Rolling resistance, durability and grip. I have 100% confidence when leaning into a corner, whether dry or wet.

Thinner

In the past I ran the GP 4000s with very few flats. Since using the 5000s I get a lot more flats and fewer miles. Conti went for performance over durability. I have found they make a GP 5000 AR which has thicker rubber. Now I just need Bike Tires direct to put them on sale.

Thank you for your feedback.
