I've had a very good experience with the Continental Grand Prix 4-Season Road Tires I have purchased. Long life, ease of replacing, and good value

Very responsive and durable tire.

A good durable tire. I bought a second set because I liked the first set so much. I'm using the 700Cx28 size which seems on the small size for a 28, more like a 26 or 27, but that also works well for me.

I went to my local bike shop to buy your Gatorskins and they did not have my size so I upgraded to the Vectrans. I had logged 1400 miles on my standard tires with only two flats, but am preparing for a 350 mile bike so wanted flat protection. With the Vectrans I got a flat tire in my first 7 miles. I switched to the Gatorskins and will ride today.

Gotta have fresh Rubber. These Treads are smooth as silk.

Love the tire because it rolls fast but it is very puncture resistant. I pretty much run these year-round, rain or sunshine because I know I can count on them to be great.

6'2 210, I ride hard, year round and cannot stand to change flats on the side of the road.
I was a gatorskin fanatic, but then I tried these! Actually a little more pliable, easier to get on my wheels than the gatorskin. Speedy tires that are practically bullet proof.
Got mine a Gold Deal here at BTD, and couldn't be happier... Maybe I should have ordered another pair.

Good durable tire, I had brand new Grand Prix racing tires and got two flats in 100 miles. I have 200 miles on these with no problems.

My wife and I both use these in 28mm and have been through at least 10 pair in the last few years. They are awesome! I weigh around 170lbs and usually run these at 7570psi. I ride them on pavement, dirt, gravel, etc. Lots of mixed terrain riding in NorCal and these have never let me down. They aren't much heavier than any 25mm tire that could handle this kind of riding and they feel much better than skinnier tires. They are way more supple than endurance tires I have tried from Specialized and Schwalbe.
Review by Rob Hill
I used to run a tire that rode great and looked fantastic on my bike but oh man, flat city. So I changed to a bulletproof Schwalbe. No more flats but the tires were significantly heavier and they felt that way. I opted for a bit less flat protection for a better ride. These tires delivered big time. Way better ride quality and, so far, no flats. I'm a happy rider again.

I have used these tires for commuting up to 250 miles a week, 52 weeks a year, in all weather. I usually get about 2 years out of them, with no to few flats. They work so well, I use them on our tandem as well! The ride is resilient and FAST! I prefer the folding tires, because I save rotational weight, which is noticeable on hills and coming off a stop. The tires are pricy, but with the savings I get from Bike Tires Direct on sale, I have tires that are durable and I can enjoy for a long time! I can spend less, but then they are not as fun to ride, and maybe not as durable.

Great tire for cold and gravelsand covered winter asfault roads. Excellent grip even in cold temps. This tire does have a much stiffer side wall as compared to Conti 4000s, therefore less supple ride. But GP4Season is almost as fast as 4000s (not that speed matters in the winter). If you purchase from BTD when on sale it's a great value too.

I've been commuting 25 miles almost daily for 13 years. Definitely best bike tire for road bike commuting. Grips to road. Almost no flats even with broken glass from recycling all over city streets.

These tires are awesome! Ride nice and smooth, however are tough and do not puncture. I have yet to be on the side of the road with a flat with the 4 season, I have buying them for years! I highly recommend them .
Review by iBob
My riding buddies and I use this tire in a 25 mm size for all season riding. It is durable and Bike Tires Direct definitely offers the best price out there. We keep several on hand to ensure there is no downtime.

First time needing new tires on my Cannondale Quick2 that I use for moderate rides 15-50 miles, usually a combo of paved path and hard gravel. I wanted something lightweight but sturdy against punctures, and with a lighter tread. This is seeming to fill the bill quite nicely. Mounted easily.
Review by OaklandMark
I've been devoted to the Conti 4 seasons for a few years now. They run long, are incredibly puncture resistant, ride smoothly, and grip well. The only minus is that compared to some softer tires, the grip/smoothness is not as great. But as those soft tires have lasted me only 500 miles, and these guys will go for 2000 rear, 4000 front, it's a good trade off. Buy them on sale before you need them and save a bundle.

This tire has very good puncture resistance and durability. I rode it on the trainer last season with very little noticeable wear and then rode it outside. I cannot say that it is the fastest tire and it is somewhat weighty, but I view the extra weight as a bonus in the off season.
