ContinentalGrand Prix 5000 S TR Road Tire(Return to Product Page)

What can you say bad about these tires? look good and roll fast!! best road tire on the planet.

This is not my first set of GP 5000s but it is my first tubeless set. They seem to be working as expected with no problems

Just as you'd expect from a product handmade in Germany, these tires are premium. I'm sure the TT version would save a few more watts, but the added puncture protection of the "standard" TR version has been great so far. Running them with lower pressures thanks to a tubeless setup has improved my ride quality by orders of magnitude from the days when I used butyl inner tubes.

What can I say'.these are still the best overall. I do wish they lasted longer with the same rolling resistance and grip but'I use the on the rear (28) with the 111 (29) on the front. I always seem to come back to Continental.

Have used these tires for four years now. Never had an issue!

The S TR, in my opinion, offers excellent rolling resistance, comfort, handling, and durability.

I love the Continental Grand Prix 5000 S Tr tires, they are easy to mount, and they bead up nicely. They are fast, smooth, and long wearing tire, I am on my second set of these, and don't think I will switch to anything different.

Mounted easily on rims. Inflated width on 26 mm internal rim width is 33.5 mm.

Really love the feel of these, they're light and fast. Unlike the schwalbes and the enves they seem to retain their speed after the first hundred miles.

Very susceptible to small punctures- definitely not as durable as the schwalbes. Probably equivalent to the enves.

I am using the 32mm size in the low 50 psi pressure range. The tires still roll nicely and smooth out a lot of bumps. They give me more confidence on roads with cracks. The lower pressure and wider contact patch probably reduces the likelihood of punctures. I've only had one puncture in two years riding - about 10,000 miles. A small piece of metal went completely through my rear tire and rattled around inside of it. I used two Dynaplugs to seal the hole and rode another 60 miles afterwards. Since the tire had about 4500 miles on it, I replaced it with a new one. I laid the new tire in the sun to warm it up and then installed in on the Zipp 303 Firecrest hookless wheel without too much effort after soaping the last section that needed to roll over the edge of the rim. I use heavy, grippy rubber gloves for this purpose. I look forward to installing them on my Roval CLX III wheels when the Specialized Turbos that came with my Tarmac SL8 wear out.

Great tires which are my choice but have gotten expensive dive so look for a sale. Tubeless mounted easily and are true to size.

I got these in 28mm and mounted them on HED Ardennes LT+ TR rim brake rims (21mm interior width). Replaced a set of tubed GP4000s. Like other commenters note, the 28mm tubeless look like my former 25mm tubed tires, but I haven't measured them. I didn't have any trouble mounting these, though I used tire levers to mount them. They're a pleasure to ride; tubeless is always a little plusher than tubed, but these are a bit silkier than other tubeless I've ridden. It may be my imagination but they seem a little faster than my previous GPs. I've ridden about 300 miles on them over all kinds of surface, including milled asphalt, crappy NYC streets, and dirt, and I've had no flats and no premature wear. Expensive but I expect to get every penny out of them.

Long time GP, GP 4000, and now GP 5000 TR tire user. For the weight, these are the most durable tires, long wearing and great grip. I'm 185 lbs and ride in the PNW, often crummy road surfaces and sometimes wet. I'm running 700x30 on 25mm internal width rims at 58/62 psi. These are still comfortable (I down sized from 32s) but, handle better on high speed turns, as I don't feel the tire flexing between the road and rim. The right tire, rim and PSI is crucial, and these are my numbers. I've ridden Schwalbe G1, Vredestein, Maxxis High Road, and top end Vittoria tires, but always go back to Continental GPs. Great tire, great ride.

I find this a Great tire for the price. I ride 3000 miles a year and have aways had great success with the Continental Grand Prix 5000 S TR Road Tire. Change them out every year with a new set.

This tire hands down is the most consistent, well performing, long lasting tire I've ever raced/trained/ridden on.

I run tubeless, 700x32 on a 2021 Cannondale SuperSix with the HollowGram wheels. I run roughly 58PSI FR / 60PSI RR - in damp Seattle and it's great. Grippy, supple, comfortbale, and fast.

Typically I can get a full summer of heavy riding and racing from them, and swap over to the 5000 AS TR for the winter.

I race a lot of crits, some road courses, and train on them daily.

Changed out my original stock Bontrager tired and replaced with these 5000S TR. Maybe it's part placebo but they feel so much faster and the ride quality is great. (Bicycle tire rolling resistance agrees with me). Best upgrade for your bike

Really happy after changing to these! I'd previously used Vittoria Corsas and Pirelli PZeros.

Although I feel that the ride sensation of the Corsa's was the best of the bunch (they're absolutely glued to the road), the durability just isnt there. In my limited experience, it felt that punctures began at about 1000 miles.

With the GP5000s, the ride feel is nearly as good, and the durability is vastly superior. My rear tires do well until 2000 miles, at which point the wear indicators are usually completely gone so I swapped them. I swap the front at 3000 miles.

Overall very happy with them!

What more do you need to know in order to purchase Continental GP5000 STR tires yourself ?

By far the best tires on the market.

25 years ago I raced on Vittoria and Veloflex tubular tires. Then I transferred to a Specialized sponsored team which means I had the opportunity to race on custom made Specialized tubular tires and S works clincher tires. I can tell you that after a long break from being on the bike, I chose Continental GP 5000 STR tires to get a tubular like ride, But a more durable tire. Not to mention that the tire pressure is unbelievably low comparitivly speaking.

Great all around tire. Not the fastest (but close enough), but great grip, puncture protection, and good durability compared to other performance tires.

Great weight, rolling resistance, and protection. I don't even try other road tires.
