I have this mounted up on some A23 rims on a Ti Rove. They do very well on packed gravel, packed dirt, forest roads, and roll very well on pavement. I've been very happy with these tires and haven't experienced a failure or flat over several hundred miles of rough terrain. They do ok on trails but lack bite under some circumstances but admittedly I would be better served on a mtb in those situations.

I bought these to make my carbon roadie more useful on hard pack trails & paths on old train track beds.

I am a seasonal weekend biker and I have had two of these tires fail in the first 200 miles. First tire bubbled on the sidewall and the second tire is still on my bike but it is starting to crack in the sidewall. I weigh 150 lbs and carry no other items. I ride about 12 miles at a time. Really a beginner. I am going to buy a little more expensive tire next time.

I love them. Mostly I'm riding on pavement, but sometimes I have to go off-road a little bit. These give me that extra grip, off-road, without slowing me down on pavement.

Returned what I purchased on Amazon cause it was NOT what I ordered. Got exactly what I needed on Bike Tires Direct.
I ride plenty of Gravel. The Continentals I bought do the job they are designed for.

Tire 8s good and rides wrll but it is not quite sized for 700c wheel. Contact II fits perfectly. Almost broke th8s tire getting it on the wheel. Will have to cut this tire apart should I ever need to get it off the wheel. Bike: Montague folding city bike

I needed a replacement set of bicycle tires and I found a good deal on a pair of Continental Ride Tour tires on biketiresdirect.com. I saved time and money with this convenient online purchase! Thanks!!!

I replaced the factory fat tires on a single speed mountain bike with these tires. I recently started working at home and ride my bike to the grocery store, indoor pool, library etc. At least once a day people ask me about my bike and tires.

I found this style (Continental) of bike tire four years ago and they are amazing the price is great and the last.

The fit was perfect, the quality is great and they ride smooth. Put them together with a thorn resistant tube and no more flats so far.

Rear tire for my specialized road bike. I ride paved surfaces 20 milesday in wet and dry weather
Review by Edo
Not a bad choice for riding in wet and muddy conditions where grip is very important. They weight more than a normal Gatorskin but they offer me the grip I need to go though 2 inches layers of mud and thats reassuring.

I am a 68 year old retiree and am not slender (200 pounds). My Strava is at 3300 miles since I got a new bike in late February 2018 mostly on Arizona canal paths. These tires are incredibly hard to mount. It's a worry that the tube is going to get pinched when mounting. I inflate to 70 psi. The rear tire feel squishy. I have gone through several tubes. At 100-200 miles of use, the rear tube starts leaking. It took a couple of tries to find a good fitting tube. Most were too large. The same tire on the front have been great. It has rolled 1,000 miles with no problems. I will replace the rear and keep this one for a front spare.

Tires appeared and measured less than the 32 mm width shown.

I had to go for the 42 before I got a tire that measured as 35mm. The 35 is about a 30. Good tire for the money once you get the size right though!
