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

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.

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

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..

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The only road bike tire you should be running, whether it be for training for racing

I've used these tires for years and am very happy with them.

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.

Got 4200 miles on the last GP 5000 TR rear tire, front looked like it still had quite a few miles left. I would rotate the tires if they weren't so difficult to mount.

Mounting was slightly easier than the GP 5000 TR, but some of that could be due to experience and making sure to do it on a nice warm day after leaving the tire in the sun.

I've been riding and doing most of my own bike maintenance for going on 28 seasons and I've never encountered a tire that was so difficult to mount. In fact, I never got it mounted. I tried both tires on 2 different HED wheels, but no dice. I spoke with the mechanic at my LBS and he said that they are that tight and are near impossible to get on/off. In the end I had to return them.

Great tires. Fast rolling resistance, low pressures, and no issues with running tubeless with silca sealant. Would recommend 100%

Frankly, I have given up trying to mount these. A lot of anguish and the effort to mount them even drew blood. What a waste of money!

I am a long time cyclist and not a rookie at putting tires on rims. This is not the first difficult time I've had with Continentals but even though the others were difficult this is the one I finally gave up on. I had to give it one star as zero isn't an option.

Can I have my money back?

Absolutely impossible to mount on Rovals. Literally, will not go on. Tried everything including a tire jack and heating the tire. Took it to LBS; couldn't do it, either. Would give it zero if I could since it's useless.

I've used the 28s before for miles and they were good, these 32s are softer and more comfortable.

I bought these to use on my gravel bike for road rides. Install was very easy, and not a single issue with them after 500-1000 miles on rough asphalt roads. Very satisfied.

If there's a better all around tire out there, I haven't met it.

Good tire for training & racing. seems to hold up well.
