Seems as good as the 4000, and often on sale, so a very good value. Very good traction (on roads), good road feel, mounts easily, rolls very well.
The 5000 was easy to mount ride is grate grip is good
These are on my Cannondale road bike and are the second set I have bought. I love the ride these tires give.
Great tire. Improved over 4000S II.
Best tires that I have tried to date. Excellent traction both wet and dry, comfortable, fast ride, decent life and puncture resistant.
I have run the GP series of tires for the last 3 seasons and find the new GP5000 to have excellent grip, speed, and wear.
These went on my new (to me) bike that would take wider tires. So far I'm VERY pleased with them!
always had great experiences on conti's, these 5000's are no different. I get fewer flats, good grip and provide a good ride feel compared to some other brands
Great Tire for the price!!
Love the tire! Use it on my road bike and carry a spare as well.
No idea I have not used them but I will
I haven't had any negatives. These have been just as advertised. Great rolling, great cornering, good flat protection, and my new go to everyday road tire.
Best tire we have found.
I'm loyal to the Contential Grand Prix and this tire is the BEST yet. Rolls smooth, no flats for 2 months now. Perfect tire for daily riding and can use for racing too.
Love these tires. For whatever reason, these tires make me want to go faster. Incredible rolling resistance and super sticky. Favorite tire right now.
Toughest and fastest tire Ive ever used
Less flats
This tire has the best rolling resistance of any clincher tire I have ridden.
Just purchased these in April - 2nd set on my Trek Emonda SL6 w Aeolus 5s - I purchased the reflective tires this round - they are awesome at making you even more visible & my first ride out, I picked up a carpenter's finishing staple. No tube puncture or anything! I highly recommend these. I'll probably upgrade to the 5000s on the next round.
I have been using GP4000 tires since their introduction, for a total of somewhere in excess of 25000 miles. They are tough, light, and terrific at cornering in all road conditions. I generally get about 3000 miles out of a set of these tires before the wear dimples disappear. This riding over largely chipseal roads. The only problem with these tires has been pointed out by a few reviewers, has to do with the sidewalls being somewhat fragile. I have only had to throw away one tire due to a sidewall puncture. It was upsetting due to it being a brand new tire, but I doubt that any tire would have survived that particular road hazard. I consider these to be about the toughest tire out there. I will continue to use them as long as they are available.
