ContinentalGrand Prix 5000 Road Tire(Return to Product Page)

Great tire. Sidewalls only weak point and latest version is better. I use these year around.

I've taken 2 pretty good with this tire and I think they're really good. I will send more comments about them soon.

Continentals are the only road bike tires I have used for the last decade. These Gran Prix 5000 tires strike a nice balance between low weight and puncture resistance. They always fit well on the rim; you simply can't go wrong with these.

I had been searching for a tire that would not get punctures when I rode vaguely near some piece of detritus with an edge or a point. I had tried other highly rated tires but with no success. The Continental Grand Prix 4K & now 5K do the trick. I imagine they are heavier than some but I can live with that. They are a bit pricey, but since I have to replace them less often, I'm probably not actually spending more. I certainly get a lot fewer flats which makes riding far more fun. As long as Continental keeps up the quality, I'll keep buying them.

Have used this and the previous versions for over 10-15 years at least - roughly 35k miles. Average about 1 flat in 10k miles. I do rotate the tires when about 1/2 worn. Ridden in all kinds of weather- excellent grip and reasonable wear- usually around 5000 miles. As a heavier rider 220 pounds- very pleased

The Continental Grand Prix 5000 tires are great all around road bike tires. They are lightweight and highly puncture resistant. They roll nicely with very low rolling resistance. A very comfortable ride for a very reasonable price. You get what you pay for.

These tires I use on my tri-bike and have for years...excellent overall for handling and wear.

I got them on a the deal of the day so price was better than normal. I have been running these along with Schwalbe pro ones and I can't really tell any difference between them so I would say whichever is cheaper is what I will get when these or the schwalbes wear out. I do a lot of longer ie 70-100 mile rides at 19-20mph and they feel fine.

Like many, I used the 4000s II for years and loved them. This newer version has less tread thickness and costs more. I bought them based on my experience with the previous model, but cannot recommend them due to changes in manufacturing and the price. There are more 700C sizes available in this model and the graphics are smaller and more appealing to me. It is still a good tire but Continental has not advanced the model technologically as much as the introduction of Black Chili compound did years ago.

Installed 700C x 32 for smooth road riding on a gravel bike, using lightweight TPU tubes. Night and day difference vs. stock 40 mm gravel tires. Unless you are really riding gravel, these lightweights are a pleasure, but they also still handle the wet well.

Minimal wear. 3500 miles as of now and still going strong.

I've been riding on Continental GP 5000 for five years. They are fast, durable, grippy in the turns and a great value for the price. The only issue I've had is getting them on the wheel. They take quite a bit of wrestling to get on.

Bought this tire to replace tire which came with endurance bike. Great all around tire. bike tire direct was the only site which carried 700x30 size. Was tough to put on, but tyre glider was very helpful

I purchased the Conti 5000 to meet my simple needs: durability and puncture resistant

I have used Conti 4000 and now the 5000 for over 10 years. Between the Vittoria, Schwalbe and Panaracer brands, the Contis meet my minimal needs. All other performance 'gains' are a bonus. Highly recommend!

Best road tire I've found (on good pavement) I use them year round. Only downside is some vulnerability to sidewall cuts but I haven't had that problem with the latest generation. Watch for sales.

Great tires, puncture resistant is on point, great price with Bike Tires Direct . So far over 1500 miles on the pair I bought no flats ??I will be purchasing another set, Continental is the way to go??

These are the only tires I ride, a bit pricey but worth it. Great road feel and low rolling resistance and puncture resistant. They grip well in the wet as well, I never have to think about my tires once I put these on my bike.

Love these tires! I have been using Continental Grand Prix ever since the 4000S model.Long life, puncture resistance and wear indicators on the tread make it easy to know when to replace them.Even after that, I put them on my trainer for many more miles.

BTD rocked it with this deal

I am a daily fitness rider who rides at least 30 miles each morning. This is my second set of Continental Grand prix 5000's and I have been very happy with them. They are resistant to flats, corner well and are very dependable, lasting around 5000 miles even through a Boston winter. Bought them on sale for a good price and expect for them to last me the rest of this year and into next year as well.
