Recently installed these and with over 100 miles I am extremely willing to say that these roll smooth,they are light, I can run high psi and quiet to boot! If looking for a tyre I highly recommend these.
I switched from by usual Continental Gator Hardshell to these because they were on sale, and can't tell the difference. I have about 2000 miles on the Continental Grand Prix 4-Season Special Edition Black and very little wear on the tread. The sidewall seems a little more beat up than usual, but I don't know if it's me or the tire.
I've used these tires (either special edition black or original) for over 5 years. The hold up well, get relatively few punctures, and ride very well.
I'll certainly continue using these in wet or dry weather!
Went up to x32's from my summer x28 (GPs). Been on some long rides with them in both real cold (single digit) and fall (50's) conditions and they are awesome. Early to tell but expect to get a lot of life out of them. Had no issues keeping pace with a pack on summer skinny race tires.
Second time around for these tires after having run the first pair for 5000 mi. Feels like a smooth roll and grips well on asphalt. Durable for off road like short, safe connector trails. I tend to reorder a tire that works at least once before going new unless I have a recommendation that motivates me to change.
Have used a different brand of tire for many years, too many flats, needed something with less flats.
Ordered these in a 700x25c this year to try. My first ride on them I noticed much less rolling resistance.
I have ridden them for 2200 miles this year and have not had any flats. I use these on a Cannondale Cad8
bicycle ridden only on paved roads. These will be my go to tire on my road bike now.
I use these on my daily rides. They are mounted on Enve Composites and the combination is extra special, at least in my book. They stay pressurized (I realize that is the use and stem too), so very reliable. This year's century included some gravel and they performed very well.
These tires are AWESOME!! I ride 500 miles a month and am on my second purchase. Rode for a year and only 1 flat. A must tire for women who ride solo a lot.
Have had great success with these tires. They have given me great wear timr
These are my go to tyres for ALL seasons. Great puncture protection, they dont feel too sluggish either. Great investment for a training tyre.
I'm an every-day city commuter. This tire handles glass and has a very nice roll.
The GP 4 Season is the tire I ride the most. I ride 28c on my endurance type bike. I ride 32c on one set of wheels for my gravelrain day bike. Over the years the GP 4 Season has gotten nothing but better. It is remarkably flat resistant even on bad roads and gravel.
I've done a number of multi-week rides and this is the tire I use.
Excellent puncture protection
Excellent product. Outstanding grip and responsiveness.
I purchased these Continentals to make my commute more comfortable and to decrease the likelihood that I will get flat. I commute 40 miles to and from work and I am very happy with these tires. Some of the bike lane on my route has glass and other debris and I honestly don't worry about getting a flat. I highly recommend these tires.
After success with a recent purchase of GP 4000s on my everyday bike, I chose to put this 4 season version on my tandem. They ride nearly identical and I have more confidence having the extra flat protection. The difference between these and the Conti Contacts they replaced is night and day. Love em.
These tires are fantastic - great rubber and ride. I had switched from Continentals to another brand a few years ago, and thanks to a great sale price, I decided to try Continentals again, and differences was clear as day, these are superior tires! mark me a Continental man for life!
These tires are fantastic for commuting in the PNW. Lots of grip in the rain, fairly light and great durability. I got over 3k out of my rear tire going over rough roads and. lots of broken glass. Just picked up a new set on sale from Western. Great bike shop!
These tires are worth the money! They have a great feel (FAST) low rolling friction and look great. I use them on my steel frame commuter bike (size 700x32) and absolutely love them! Highly recommended!!
