I WANT TO MARRY THESE TIRES

I am almost through a 35-day cross-country tour. 110 miles per day. I swapped to these new, tougher Conti 5000 tubeless after wearing out a set of Schwalbe Pro One tubeless. I have never had any piece of bike tech make as much of a difference to my performance. They are dramatically more comfortable and faster. They also installed easily on my notoriously difficult Zipp 303 hookless rims. I can install myself with arthritic hands, without a tire jack. I love these tires!

Thank you for your feedback.

Tougher Alternative to S TR

I'm trying these as a replacement for the GP 5000 S TR I started with. The S TR only got 3300 mi / 5300 km before being worn out, barely 6 months of riding. The AS version is a much tougher version. I've got only a few hunder miles / km on them, so I've no indication, yet, if they are longer wearing, but I am very pleased with the handling of this tire. Corners like the racing version, grips like the racing version, but the feel is much stiffer. At 10-15 psi less than I used to carry, the bumps are still noticeable. Previously, I used about 70 psi, and I'm now down to 55 - 60 psi.

The stiffness of the ride is due to the increased tread thickness. This is also supposed to provide more puncture resistance, but I'm hoping just to get a full year out of these tires. Using Silca Ultimate Tubeless Sealant, I never noticed if I had any punctures, so the puncture resistance is not an issue for me. Only time, and distance, will tell if this change was worth it.

Thank you for your feedback.

Some pretty thick rubber.

Performs the same as a regular gp5000tr as far as traction/handling in dry weather but slightly heavier and thicker which helps with comfort and durability. It absorbs vibrations slightly better than the regular lighter version. I found that the thicker tire is also less prone to deforming when your rotate tires frequently between rims which helps with easy inflation. Unfortunately I ended up flatting my 28mm about 300 miles in on a massive m8 wood screw. Patched it up but the tire would inflate with a slight hump where the puncture was which pretty much made it useless. Overall it is a great tire that performs just as good as previous models but with added comfort, durability, and reliability but is not invincible. The extra weight is not noticeable. Great for daily use but I wouldn't mind racing on them.

Thank you for your feedback.

Excellent Tubeless Tires

These tires were easy to set up on my wheels. They feel very nice on the road- smooth rolling, grippy in corners, and do well in the wet. I have only ridden them for about 800 miles, but I have been impressed with the durability. I live in the Los Angeles area, so we have a lot of glass and debris on the road. These tires have resisted getting cuts much better than all the tires I've used in the past. I have not had any flats.

Thank you for your feedback.

Disappointed it wore so fast

At 1200 miles the rear 32c tire developed a slow leak. A month later it stopped holding air. Wear dots were down to nothing, I�m a heavier rider but that seemed a little early as I usually get 1600-2000 miles on the tube GP5000, the earlier 5000 TL, S-Works RapidAir, and Vittoria N.EXT. Disappointed it wore down so soon. Road feel ok, the 32c smooths out rough pavement at 58-64psi. The 28c is a rough ride.

Thank you for your feedback.

Grippy in Wet

Rode these twice in the rain, wet roads, and found them to be very grippy. Much better than Goodyear and Schwable I had on these rims before. Even pushing pretty hard into corners on wet road I have a great deal of confidence with these tires. I'm 175-180 lbs, and I ran them at 45 psi on wet, vs 50psi for dry roads.

Also raced two criteriums with these tires and they worked fine. Probably not the lightest race-day tire you can get, but good enough for me (Cat 4).

Thank you for your feedback.

Easy to Mount

After many years working in a bike shop, I have a longstanding hatred for Continental tires because they are traditionally so tight. BUT, I broke down and tried these as there are very few options for my rims, Giant SLR2 carbon hookless. They were super easy to mount, no problem, and sealed right away.

Out of the package they feel a little more substantial than Schwable Pro One, but not quite as heavy as Goodyear Eagle F1s that I have run on this bike. Roll seems really good and they are very grippy, at least on dry pavement. Only had them one week, but if they're as durable as the ad says, they could be my go-to for training and racing. Pleasantly surprised.

Thank you for your feedback.

Good all purpose spring tire

Long time GP tire consumer. Order a set of these for spring training. Have about 500 plus miles on them so far with no flats. They have performed very well even with all the crud left from winter on the roads.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great Tires

These a great tires to be used while doing training out on the roads and also for road races where the surface can be a bit rough. So far no issues at all. Also they installed very well and sealed up with a regular bike pump. Love that.

Thank you for your feedback.

Tires deliver as promised

Great all around race tire that definitely feels like a GP 5000- and I don't fear keeping mounted for all rides since they are also durable. Roll awesome at 60-65 PSI.

Solid Performance in Urban Areas

Not the lightest TR tire out there but robust enough for the daily grind in Urban areas. The performance has been such that I can safely rely on these tires in conditions that would shred my previous Coni GP5000TRs. They are as expensive as my Car tires�

Thank you for your feedback.

Best tubeless tire yet!

I've been running Tubeless tires for many miles and have used multiple tire products. This GP 5000 AS is my number one. Wears well, is cut-resistant, and mounts up easily. AAA +++
