Excellent tire for everyday touring around country roads.

Have had great results and life from the continental gatorskins. Work well on country road touring and in and around town. For the price, an excellent buy.

Thank you for your feedback.

Dont need to worry about flats anymore

Can be a bit tougher to get on but is a great commuter tire where flats wont be a concern. Have tried similar products from other manufacturers and always go back to the gatorskin

Thank you for your feedback.

Durable - getting between 5500 & 7000 miles

I am a distance cyclist, 250 - 300 mpw12000py. These tires wear well, cut resistant and excellent for not having flats. Usually do 110 miles on Sat. Rest of the week is between 25 miles M thru F and 65 miles on Sun.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great Winter Tires

Not the lightest but these tires are really durable. They're easy to get off and on the rims - extra important when it's wet and cold. I've had good luck with not getting flats (knock on wood).

Thank you for your feedback.

I've ridden CONTINENTAL GATORSKIN 700C ROAD TIRES for many years.

I ride a Trek 2120 for touring. Most recent trip was Indianapolis to Cleveland, OH, 5 days, 350 miles, carrying gear and credit card camping. I've used these tires for years and have always been satisfied with the ride. I recommend these tires for both day to day riding as well as longer rides.

Thank you for your feedback.

Continental Gatorskins hold up very well for long distance touring.

Excellent tire for long distance touring. Hold up well and give me many miles of cycling. Ride 1000 miles and year with no problems with the tire. I ride with a group of senior men and we all have the same tire.

Thank you for your feedback.

I have been using gatorskins on all my bicycles for several years without a flat.

This is one tough tire. The only failure has been the tube stem, not the tire.

Great puncture resistance and great mileage

Great puncture resistance and tire life. I use them for training and racing, very good traction when leaned over. Never had an issue in the wet either. I run them at 55psi max on my CX bike on the road and they soak up the bumps. I probably would have gotten more miles out of them if I didn't use them on the trainer ,)
