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

I've been riding on Continental tires for as long as I can remember. Great tires for road cycling. Easy to change and they last for a good 400 plus miles.

After a series of flat tires, 5 or six flats over a 6 month period, an extremely unusual experience for me, I chose to tubeless. I rode the same routes where I had repeatedly flatted w/o a problem. I have ridden these tires about 1800 miles since installing them and had only one flat, a week after I installed. Beyond being far less prone to flatting, they were noticeably faster than my tubed GP 5000s. They also corner noticeably better, and, at the same time, have to same wonderful road feel I expect from GP tires. I have been using Continental tires for more than 40 years. These are, by far, the best I have ever used. The wear dimples are still showing after 1800 miles of chip seal rides, so they look like they will last well into the 3000 mile range. Tubeless systems do require rims specifically designed for the purpose, and a pump capable of delivering an initial burst of air sufficient to set the bead of the tire before it can be inflated. It is much easier than I anticipated, and having done it, I will never go back. Continental, as I said, is my go to first choice, and they have never disappointed me.

Tubeless wheels and tires have come a long way and I am a convert. I am running much lower psi and the rides are much more comfortable. These tires are light and roll fast. So far so good on the durability. Just need to remember to top up with sealant every couple of months.

I have ridden on Continental tires for years and will continue to purchase them as they are, for me , dependable on rough roads, fast descents and on wet roads.

If you love the traditional Conti Grand Prix ride feel, you will love these. Easy tubeless install, super sticky on the roads when you need them to be and not sticky from weeping sealant, if you have had that issue? My previous Schwalbe Pro One's lost sealant through the porous sidewalls and the wheels were always sticky, not in a good way! Sealant issues begone and a luxe ride, can't go wrong. Too new to speak about longevity but if the past holds true, you get a great performance driven life out of conti, thrilled with their update and them being back in my stable.

What more is there really to say about what is arguably the "Gold Standard" in road tires? My 3rd set on Canyon Aeroad, now trying 28F / 30R with this new set, vs. two prior sets of 25F / 28R, running ~ 73 psi F / 76 psi R. Seem to clock right at 4K miles each set, when the wear dimples have faded away. A bit of a bugger to mount on deep-section carbon rims, but do-able. Confident handling & cornering, reasonable ride comfort, too.

The GP5000 S TR tires have performed well. The wear has been good, while traction, ride and speed are 2nd to none. Tires are easy on/easy off of carbon rims. While I have been running these tires with TPU Tubes, I'm sure the tubeless performance is flawless, as well

Can't beat a GP 5000 S TR.

I have been riding the 500 tubules series since the very first ones availability and love these tires, recently road a mountain route in California that ended up with several washout areas of very jagged rough rock and gravel and I just knew I wouldn't get through without a puncure but I did and was amazed. I have never been flatted and ride mostly in the city with glass everywhere.

Used the 32mm on Hunt Gravel Hookless 35mm deep carbon rims with a 25mm internal width. More difficult to mount than Schwalbe Pro One TLEs. Smooth rolling and grippy with cornering. Doesn't fit as well as the Schwalbe tires--reason being is that when I remove the core to add sealant, there are some small leaks from where the bead gets unseated. Other than that, great tire.

I've ridden many other tire brands but none of them provided me with the confidence like Continental. The tires handled dry/wet pavement conditions with no problem. The rolling resistance was very noticeable and offered a comfortable ride. Truly the best tires on the market.

It's the World Tour tire of choice!

I've used the Continental GP5000 for a couple of years now. Great handling tire with good wear life. A tight fit which makes installing them a bit of a challenge.

Great tire! Sets up nicely with tubeless and its combination of speed and puncture resistance that can't be beat!

Looks great, rides great, doesn't flat and generally keeps psi. I am a 90kg rider on Shimano C36 wheels and will get one 2,500 mile outdoor season on these, but no more. At 1,800 miles the tire tire wear indicators are almost invisible. For me, one season is good enough, but budget riders will want to look elsewhere. I just keep an eye out for sales, and budget for them annually.

I run these on my Aethos with my Enve All Road 3.4 wheels. They stick well and feel fast. I doubt doubt them at all descending or cornering. I keep a few spares on hand, as I plan to use this model forever.

This tire was easy to install and back on the road fast. Love it so far, no problems and comfortably riding.

These tires have a low rolling resistance and are tough

I cycle for fitness and like the fast rolling of these tires, although they flat a wee bit more than the Pirelli P-Zero

I use the 5000 s TR for my Zipp wheels which provide so much security against flats. All type of roads don't stop these babies. It's been hard to get but now I'm fully stock. They're so consistent with air pressure especially after refill of tire sealant
