ContinentalGatorskin 700c Road Tire (Folding)(Return to Product Page)

I ride about 10k miles a year and ride only gatorskin now. I've tried other tires but these get by far the fewest flats and last between 6000-7000 miles. Best tire on the market in my opinion.

These tires are tough and BTD offered them at a great price. They are not as supple as other more expensive Conti tires but still a great product.

I have been using these tires for many years and they are the best for flat free rides. Won't use anything else

Price was outstanding. Very durible tire

Excellent winter riding tires. Good for the commute to work and home. Not afraid of being stuck on the road due to a flat.

My wife has been using this road tire for 5 months and no flats to date. If you ride a lot of miles then this tire may be for you, tough, durable, and a comfortable ride.

I bought these for my commuter bike. After close to 2000 miles over two years, they still look almost brand new and I have yet to (knock on wood) have a puncture. These tires are light, smooth rolling, and most importantly, very tough. I have taken them on city streets, hard pack gravel, and dirt trails, and they work great.

I just retired my rear wheel's 700 x 25 Folding Gatorskin after 5700 miles. I'm 6'3 and weigh 230. I ride suburban and county road club rides in temperatures as low as 10 and as high as 95 at rolling speeds from 14 to 21 . I inflate to 110 psi before every ride. I've been very pleased with the comfort, grip, and durability of Gatorskin tires.

It seems like I should be buying these tires by the dozen because I'm putting on my son's and my bikes. With the new testing for rolling drag it's clearly evident for us fast-recreational riders that bigger is better especially when you're a Clydesdale in your old age. Still some of us never break 190 lbs even when fit and need bigger tires.

I bought these to replace a pair of beaded gator skins. I wanted more flat protection without adding weight. After 6 months I have been very happy. Only one flat from a packing staple though I have pull chunks of glass out of them a few times with no flats. They were easy to mount despite not having a wire bead. I will buy these again.

I've tried many tires and this is the best. Have been using Gator skins for years and have had great experiences. In last six or seven years only had one flat and it was my fault. Ran them all year , once even to the cores. Get great wear out of them. Wish they made them tubeless.

Much lower frequency of flats riding on Gatorskins that other similar tires. The minimal weight difference is clearly not an issue.

I keep getting the Gatorskins. They're fanstastically durable and best of all they're a smooth riding tire. I'm very happy with them. I've been riding for 30 years and have always used them after trying others.

I bought these thinking they would be more resistant to flats than the bontrager hardcase lites ive been riding. Holy sh*t was I wrong. Ive already had 3 flats in less than 100 miles. Very disappointed in this product.

I tried many tires but come back to the Gatorskin all the time. I can easily ride several thousand miles on them without any problems. During the summer the road surface is very hot most of the time in my area, and the tires can handle this without a problem. These tires also seem to be very puncture resistance, even when you use them maybe a little to long.

When I moved to Colorado in 2007 I would join in on group rides and I was always getting flat! Lots of goat heads out here. I switched out my tires soon after to gator skins and it's 14 years now without a Flat. Don't be that person that's always stopping the ride with a flat.

Where I live the pavement is often bumpy, cracked, and not always well - maintained. Additionally, many of the paved routes I ride include gravel sections. I've used Gatorskin tires for the past few years, and I have never gotten a flat. I feel comfortable tackling the occasional gravel stretch with these tires. They also last a very long time. They may not be the fastest tire around, but I'll take durability over speed for where I live!

These tires are solid! They were a bit challenging to get on my bike, but thanks to an expert friend, we got the job done. They work beautifully and have provided me hundreds of happy miles and hundreds more to come.

Former Maxxis devotee. Maxxis makes great road training tires but these Gatorskins wear even longer than the Maxxis. The wear guides in the tires are a great plus to a great tire. 4 years of riding this brand at 2500-3000 miles a year with only one flat, caused by an industrial size and strength staple. With Maxxis I'd get 1-2 flats a season.

Get the job done nothing fancy, no flats yet
