ContinentalGrand Prix 4000 S II 700c Road Tire(Return to Product Page)

A little hard to mount.

Excellent handling feel

Low rolling resistance

Love these tires

i have been using the GP4000S and SII for a number of years. I consistently get over 10K miles on a tire (new tire goes on front and when back wears out front goes to back and new tire on front). Tires ride great on varied asphalt surfaces.

Continental tyres are by far the best I have ridden on. This is an easy assessment - I have been riding for 50 years and have ridden over 500,000 miles...many miles on different tyre makes. No contest Continental Grand Prix 4000 (and 'All Season') have out performed all of the others. I ride on them, I race on them - it's proven to be the 'failsafe' choice for me. It's highly unlikely I will change.

is very responsive tire.

rarely flat with it, resistant to punctures.

Has good road feel and not slippery in wet conditions.

I like that they're lightweight, handle well, and offer a high level of durability. The price is a little high for me, but you definitely can tell they're high quality. To save a little money, in the winter I switch to Michelins. They're a little more durable, IMO. Of course, the Continental Gatorskins have them all beat for durability, but the Grand Prix 4000 offer the best balance of performance and durability I've found. I highly recommend them.

These are my go-to road tires, both for everydaytraining and racing Road and TT (for crits I use Michelins they're stickier). Good traction, long-lasting, and pretty easy to seat in a rim compared to what they were just a couple of years ago (no way are my hands stronger than they were).

Occasionally there will be a questionable spot after X number of rides where something has left its mark in the tire, but I've had nothing that affects cornering, ride quality, or flatting-resistance. Almost everything, and again, there are few issues, is superficial and does not go through to the tube. These tires are not soft enough to have grit embedded after each ride like some others (Bontrager R3s, for instance), but are soft enough to not give a harsh ride.

Most of the bikes at races this year sport these tires, I noticed, including the guys that are faster than me (I looked at their tires trying to find any excuse I could use for not winning).

Good tire with good performance and puncture resistance.

This are the best all around tires period. Excellent price and costumer service from biketiresdirect.com make it even a better purchase.

Wears very well. Handles good. Getting 2500 miles out of the set I have now with 1 rotation. If you rotate at 500-600 miles you can get more.

Love these tires. I have them on 3 bikes and have never had problems. Great traction in the rain.

Got this tire in a 20mm to fit an old back up TT disc. So glad that conti still makes this option as 20mm tires are fading out in the TT world because of RR(rolling resistance) tests. Raced all year long and and a few training rides still super sticky and fresh. Fastest all around tire in my opinion.

Really like my new tires. Ride is very smooth. I highly recommend to anyone needing new tires to consider getting a set of these.

I mounted these GP4000 S II tires on my New Zipp's, 404 Carbon Clincher's, WOW!! What a difference in ride and performance. I picked up a mile and half per hour!!

Love Them.

BikeTiresDirect.Com is by far One Great Bicycling Supply Store!!

The Conti GP 4000 S II is a fantastic tire that is long lasting, puncture resistant, and yields a fast yet soft riding experience. The gripping power is excellent, even in wet conditions, yet soft enough to absorb the contours of the rode for a pleasant ride experience. a bargain at BTD prices.

I normally get 2,000 miles out of these tires. Rolling resistance is great. An important feature is installing tires compliant with tire errors. Unfortunately, finding those arrows can be quite difficult.

The gold standard to which all other tires are measured. Great grip and longevity are what you can expect from the conti Grand Prix 4000 S II

Put 2 new 4000's on a new set of HED wheels. In 2 years, ZERO flats (durability), sub 430 century (speed). Replaced the rear tire after 1 year, the front is still going with wear indicators still visible.the PERFECT tire
