Fast with grippy. Like GP5000s with knobs

They work good - fast and traction - no punctures - but sidewall wear is real.

Thank you for your feedback.

Theyre fast

Not a ton of grip on loose stuff but they sure do roll fast. They also wear quick.

Thank you for your feedback.

Conti Terra speed 45 wide

Installation was better than most tubeless gravel tires. I used a compressor and they snapped into place on the first try. I added sealant through the valve and they are holding air well. I've been riding them on 50/50 gravel and pavement. I've been using between 32-38 psi . They roll very well on hardpack and pavement. These could be my go to for fast gravel / higher ratio of pavement. If riding a higher ratio of gravel (esp with known chunky gravel and/or washboard), I'd pick wider mtb tires to run more like 24 psi.

Thank you for your feedback.

great tire, if its not defective

This has been a great tire fore dirt road and light trail riding with low rolling resistance and a plush ride. They tend to 'weep' a bit through the carcass, but not enough to loose sealant or air. They wear pretty quickly, but that is a fair price to pay for the ride quality. Unfortunately, the last two I purchased had a defect causing a side to side wobble which Continental readily replaced after i contacted them. This also happened previously on a 650b Terra Speed as well. Hopefully, Continental can fix their quality control issues in which case i would give this tire 5 stars.

Thank you for your feedback.

Fast, Fun, Low rolling resistance. But wears thin quickly

Love this gravel tire. Low rolling resistance. 40mm measures out to 42mm on my Zipp 303S. Fast but sticky. Black chili rubber is great, but it wears down quickly. I think this is a great front tire for gravel riding as it can last more than 1,000 miles. The back wears too quickly (changing the back around 600 miles of use as it looks like a slick at that point). I ride about 50/50 road/gravel in my area.

Thank you for your feedback.

Light tubeless tire

Rolls pretty fast on gravel and light enough. The tires mounted easily on my carbon rims. So far so good.

Thank you for your feedback.

Fast tire

Terra speed is a fast, tough tire, & mixed pavement doesn't burn them up too quick. Not the best tire for wet singletrack, but gravel, mixed, & dry trails, it is hard to beat.

Thank you for your feedback.

Just the right size and grip

I mounted these up as a bigger option to run instead of my usual Pathfinder Pros in 38c. These measure 45mm wide on a 25 ird rim. I was quite happy with the feel, responsiveness, and overall confidence they give me without feeling their size or weight at all (not that it's much different.) I also use them with a tire insert so I can comfortably ride them at 30-33psi. Great tire all around!

Thank you for your feedback.

Some side wall leakage. But otherwise good

I bought these for the low rolling resistance and decent flat protection. The rolling resistance feels good, I have yet to experience any flats and the tread seems to hold well on loose over hard.

The sidewall in one of them has been weeping pretty hard. But that's not uncommon for tires.

Thank you for your feedback.

Ive tried a bunch of gravel so far and these are my absolute favorite. Easy to mount tubeless, low rolling resistance, and durable enough to last all seaso. Highly recommend!

Goldilocks tire!

Fast, grippy, durable, easy setup. My favorite for a while now. Yes the Black Chili compound is worth it.

Grip on loose gravel and dirt, and roll well on asphalt

I have taken these tires off road and have been very impressed with traction. On road performance is pretty good too.
