Durable race tire

Durable and light . Easy to mount on tubeless rims. Bead seals firmly to rim. I use these tires training and racing with good results.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great

I did a recent race 60 miles, when I arrived I noticed everyone was was riding a gravel bike Turns out about 33 miles was gravel, I rode and completed the ride on the 28mm continental 5000 on Cadex hookless wheels at 63 psi ,not a single mark no flats zero problem well maybe one on 10% hill my tiers were spinning so much in the gravel I had walk part of the way up the hill in my road shoes.

Thank you for your feedback.

My Favorite road tire!

This is a phenomenal tire. Amazingly efficient rolling resistance with no compromise when it comes to durability. The tires are incredibly hard to install, but the plus side is that the seal that is created when they are seated is so tight you could almost go without using sealant. Highly recommend these tires.

Thank you for your feedback.

Don't waste time or money with other tires

I finally wore past the indicators on my rear tire. It rolled 5,281 miles. Incredibly fast, incredibly durable, fantastic puncture protection, easy mounting.

$0.02 per mile for the fastest road tires a pleb can buy.

Thank you for your feedback.

Absolutely the best road bike tire (so far)

These tires really, really perform well. Very resistant to cuts and punctures. Stable in the corners. I've got 2,000+ miles on a pair and they look almost new. I've been a Continental tire client for 10+ years and these are the best they have made to date. I have a spare set of these from BikeTiresDirect but I expect it will be a while till the existing ones show any significant wear.

Thank you for your feedback.

GP5000s Always Impress

I've used multiple variants of this tire and currently run the 28mm and 30mm versions of this tire. They snapped right on to my Zipp 808s without requiring any tools. The first for a TLR tire in my experience. I was worried there might have been an issue and they wouldn't hold air since they went on so easily - but they seated and held air just great! I will have to see how these compare long term this season but so far so good.

Thank you for your feedback.

Tight Fit

Installation of this tire was extremely hard. It took all my power plus some to get this tire on my TR wheel. However, it filled up with air with my floor pump easily. So far, the ride on this tire is real nice.

Thank you for your feedback.

Very fast lack durability

Once you break them in, they are the fastest tires I ever had, vs Schwalbe Pro One, Conti GT 5000 TL.

They are really a race or time trial tire, with a bit more puncture protection.

I bought a set of Schwalbe Pro One TE. They are listed as only 15 grams more, but they seem 2X as durable.

Thank you for your feedback.

what it's said is true about this tyre

This is probably the highest rated road tubeless tire in the market and it does live up to the accolades. According to my bike shop, it was super easy to install/set up. I have been riding with these and they are very smooth. So far, I have had a great experience.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great tire overall!

So far I would give them a 5/5 except for two minor things. They are quite difficult for an older fellow with arthritic fingers to get on/off the rims. Also they tend to lose air and need topping off more quickly than one might expect. Perhaps that is standard for tubeless set-ups or maybe for hookless rims.

Thank you for your feedback.

Fantastic tire!!

Mounted on Zips 404 Firecrest hookless wheels effortlessly and I feel confident cornering in both wet and dry conditions. Rolling resistance is negligible from the Continental TL 5000 (28mm) tires I had previously, ride comfort, just fantastic!

Thank you for your feedback.

Not durable.

I liked the first iteration of these and waited for the second iteration. Mistake. Ruined 2 new tires with in weeks. One sidewall and one big cut. Didn't seem to have much protection. Unfortunately I have several left in stock. Will run them as front tires now.

Thank you for your feedback.

Running tubeless. GP5000 are supple, sticky, and puncture resistant. Little hard to mount but that goes with tubeless system.

Great tire. Gumwall sides look good.

Tires ride smooth and comfortable. Slashed front tire on glass at about 400 total miles. Unrepairable. Just bad luck but with these Conti GP5000s that is a spendy run of misfortune..

Using the Grand Prix 5000 S TR tires on my current road bike. Great grip, fast rolling, extremely smooth ride with the tubeless setup even on our crappy Massachusetts roads.

Seems durable and easy to seat!

Too early to say how durable this will be over the long run. The one thing that stood out was how easy it was to get this seated on my tubeless rim - no sweat at all. Definitely not the case for the Vittoria Corsa tire it was replacing which was next to impossible for me to seat.

I have used similar Continental road tires for years with tubes, so I expect great results.

Thank you for your feedback.
