I had no problem mounting these tubeless on Zipp 303 Firecrest rims. Piece of cake. They ride really nicely.
I love the Continental Grand Prix 5000 S Tr tires, they are easy to mount, and they bead up nicely. They are fast, smooth, and long wearing tire, I am on my second set of these, and don't think I will switch to anything different.
I got the 32mm version for 3-season riding on roads. Despite being much wider than my previous tires they are fast, as long as they are pumped up to ~60psi. At that pressure they definitely help smooth out the bumps on bad city streets and they grip well on corners so they feel much more secure than narrower tires.
I find this a Great tire for the price. I ride 3000 miles a year and have aways had great success with the Continental Grand Prix 5000 S TR Road Tire. Change them out every year with a new set.
Changed out my original stock Bontrager tired and replaced with these 5000S TR. Maybe it's part placebo but they feel so much faster and the ride quality is great. (Bicycle tire rolling resistance agrees with me). Best upgrade for your bike
So I put these tubeless on last week to replace my old tires that had 24000kms on them, and I never grow tired of the sound of new tires whirring up on the pavement as you speed up. New tires bring so much joy. And I have complete faith in these tires on descents and turns. Super grippy. In Conti we trust!
Great tire, easy to install if you have an air compressor. These are the 2nd set of continentals that I have bought. Love them
Inflated to 60f/67r psi these tires ride very well and have very good cornering and braking traction. No flats yet.
Long time GP, GP 4000, and now GP 5000 TR tire user. For the weight, these are the most durable tires, long wearing and great grip. I'm 185 lbs and ride in the PNW, often crummy road surfaces and sometimes wet. I'm running 700x30 on 25mm internal width rims at 58/62 psi. These are still comfortable (I down sized from 32s) but, handle better on high speed turns, as I don't feel the tire flexing between the road and rim. The right tire, rim and PSI is crucial, and these are my numbers. I've ridden Schwalbe G1, Vredestein, Maxxis High Road, and top end Vittoria tires, but always go back to Continental GPs. Great tire, great ride.
Really love the feel of these, they're light and fast. Unlike the schwalbes and the enves they seem to retain their speed after the first hundred miles.
Very susceptible to small punctures- definitely not as durable as the schwalbes. Probably equivalent to the enves.
I got these in 28mm and mounted them on HED Ardennes LT+ TR rim brake rims (21mm interior width). Replaced a set of tubed GP4000s. Like other commenters note, the 28mm tubeless look like my former 25mm tubed tires, but I haven't measured them. I didn't have any trouble mounting these, though I used tire levers to mount them. They're a pleasure to ride; tubeless is always a little plusher than tubed, but these are a bit silkier than other tubeless I've ridden. It may be my imagination but they seem a little faster than my previous GPs. I've ridden about 300 miles on them over all kinds of surface, including milled asphalt, crappy NYC streets, and dirt, and I've had no flats and no premature wear. Expensive but I expect to get every penny out of them.
This tire hands down is the most consistent, well performing, long lasting tire I've ever raced/trained/ridden on.
I run tubeless, 700x32 on a 2021 Cannondale SuperSix with the HollowGram wheels. I run roughly 58PSI FR / 60PSI RR - in damp Seattle and it's great. Grippy, supple, comfortbale, and fast.
Typically I can get a full summer of heavy riding and racing from them, and swap over to the 5000 AS TR for the winter.
I race a lot of crits, some road courses, and train on them daily.
Really happy after changing to these! I'd previously used Vittoria Corsas and Pirelli PZeros.
Although I feel that the ride sensation of the Corsa's was the best of the bunch (they're absolutely glued to the road), the durability just isnt there. In my limited experience, it felt that punctures began at about 1000 miles.
With the GP5000s, the ride feel is nearly as good, and the durability is vastly superior. My rear tires do well until 2000 miles, at which point the wear indicators are usually completely gone so I swapped them. I swap the front at 3000 miles.
Overall very happy with them!
What more do you need to know in order to purchase Continental GP5000 STR tires yourself ?
By far the best tires on the market.
25 years ago I raced on Vittoria and Veloflex tubular tires. Then I transferred to a Specialized sponsored team which means I had the opportunity to race on custom made Specialized tubular tires and S works clincher tires. I can tell you that after a long break from being on the bike, I chose Continental GP 5000 STR tires to get a tubular like ride, But a more durable tire. Not to mention that the tire pressure is unbelievably low comparitivly speaking.
These came with my new Canyon Endurace (SLX-Force). If you run these with tubes...you'll flat often. Had 3 flats in 10 rides. Finally went tubeless. These tires have exceptional feel, speed, and grip. Thousand miles in tubeless, no flats. A few punctures and a gash, but Stans took care of all of it. I have considered the AS TR's, but if these continue to perform the way they are I'll def. stick with them. Long-time Vittoria user, but these are just faster. Excellent tire,
These tires are perfect for my endurance road riding!
Best all around tire for racing or training fast. Decent durability, get them on sale for best value.
Fast and hold up well to the bumpy roads around where
Fast and grippy. Had a puncture that self sealed without a problem during a ride. Plugged it when I got home.
Easily the Best tubeless tire out there
