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.

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.

My Favorite

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..

Thank you for your feedback.

fantastic performance

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.

Amazing tires at a great price

I absolutely give these tires a 5 star rating. They are hands down the fastest, smoothest, and puncture resistant tubeless tires I have used. I was hesitant to make the jump to these tires, but after using them in Lotoja with no issues whatsoever I'm definitely a believer.

Thank you for your feedback.

Love Contis!

I went tubeless last year with the older style GP 5000 TLs, put well over 5000 miles on them with no problems at all. So far these new ones seem to be more of the same even better if that's possible.

Thank you for your feedback.

Tires are Slow and Bouncy.

The rolling resistance of this tire is too grippy and slow. They are also bouncy over bumps in the road. My average speed is one MPH slower with these tires. The surface of the tire is rough not smooth like Schwalbe Pro ONE TLE 700c Road Tire (HS493). if I could afford to, I would remove them and install Schwalbe Pro ONE TLE. I find the Schwalbe Pro ONE TLE 700c Road Tire to be a faster with less bounce.

Thank you for your feedback.

Super fast and grippy

Very happy with this tire. Feels as fast subjectively as my turbo cottons, corners better. 28s set up easily tubeless on roval clx 50s and hold air well. Plumps up to about 29-30 measured, depending on your internal rim width.

Thank you for your feedback.

Not your Dad's Continentals

Tried new Conti 5000 and side wall definitely under performs in puncture resistance. Half a dozen rides ?? pretty $$$. I felt nearly bullet proof on 4000's. Its either some really bad luck or these are just slow racing tires.

Thank you for your feedback.

Not very puncture proof

This is the last continental tyre I will purchase. I used gp4k clinchers for years, then went to gp5k tubeless which worked alright. You could find them for $65 bucks and I'd hope to get 2k miles out of them before too many cuts.

Now to have to purchase a $90 tyre and have it fail and not seal multiple times within the first 1000 miles. Nope. Off to a competitor.

Thank you for your feedback.

Good road tire though tough to install

This is a good quality road tire, though kinda pricey. I have used similar Conti clinchers in the past and this is consistent. Being tubeless, I found it rather difficult to install. Had to resort to one of those tire bead lever gadgets you see advertised. Without that, you better have big strong hands.
