Much easier to mount than the tubeless gp 5000
I have it on all my bikes 25's on my Cervelo S5 and 28's on my new Pinarello F. Its durable, fast and light everything i look for in a tire.
Easy to install, smooth rolling, good puncture protection & good looking
I have rode these tires last 2 of the 9 RAGBRAI's I have participated in. Continental makes a quality product. Well worth the price.
Mount super easy. Very reliable and grippy tires. Good puncture protection too.
These are excellent tires, but if I did not know whether I was on my older 4000s or my new 5000s I could not tell the difference.
Conti Grand Prix 5000 just keep getting better and better. Great puncture and rolling resistance!
Great race tires. Would highly recommend. Super tight bead on them however, might need some real elbow grease to get on.
We switched over to the 32s of this model from a light touring tire for the summer. We have a tandem that can run up to 38s but these fit the bit for nice pavement to chip seal country roads. They are much faster and corner great. They also have a nice road feel as the larger volume lets us get away with lower pressure. Wouldnt take these on dirt, but thats not what they are made for!
Can't go wrong with Conti tires. Simply the best.
Fast and reliable. Easy to change and flat more than gatorskins but a better race feel. Good for about 1500 miles
I ride this tire in a 700c x 25mm size daily on asphalt, typically 20 - 60 miles. I used to switch to Gator Skins for Fully Supported week long tours, but this year I have left the 5000S tires on my bike rims and they are proving surprisingly flat resistant. I may switch to a 28mm width for the next week tour.
Best tires I've ever had on my bike, got them within a week of ordering. Good service
Great grip great flat resistamce and good price when on sale!
Took another chance after giving up on earlier Grand Prix versions due to way too many flats, blow outs, etc. Tried these and they are great!
Picked up a pair of the 700c x 25mm tires when they were on sale. I couldn't tell a noticeable difference over the previous model of this tire (GP 4000 SII) but I did use them in a 60 mile race and they rolled as smooth as butter, gave a soft ride. They have not punctured after 350 miles of riding so far and that includes over some rough gravel and road debris. If you can grab these when they are on sale you can't go wrong.
Best tire Ive had..
The 5000 is the replacement for my go to 4000 SII. Improved rolling resistance, puncture resistance and grip makes this my new go to tire. It has the nice aero shape of the 4000 and rides just as nice. Highly recommend the 5000.
The GP5000 is all it is supposed to be. I've been riding the GP4000SII for several years. It has been a great tire for our rough roads. It has been durable and fast. The GP5000 appears to be just as durable and seems to roll better. Recommend these tires to everyone. I do fast group rides and several long ridesraces per year.
Love the ride
