ContinentalGrand Prix 5000 Road Tire(Return to Product Page)

Smooth ride, great handling. I get over 4000 miles on them but I rotate at 2k to even out the wear. A very high quality tire but a little on the expensive side. However, well worth the price. I use the 700x32 because it has better ride & handling.

Bought these specifically for RTR. 6 days of biking is all conditions ( except snow). Zero issues, no flats. Initial install on Bontrager Aeolus Elite 35 was very easy. Saw lots of these tires on other bikes and all 3 in our groupused these. Flawless performance 475 miles in 6 days and 29,000+ feet of climbing.

Always ridden Continental GP5009 tires and they still continue to deliver a solid product. I get maybe one or two punctures a year. Just got the 700x28, black and cream and look great. Roll fast and smooth.

Love the tires as they are fast and high quality for the money.

I put these tires on in the summer and put 3-4000 miles on them before switching

to the 4 season tires for the Winter.

The tire itself is amazing and one of the lowest rolling resistance tires out there. Have pretty much switched over exclusively to this. The performance is phenomenal and looks good too. Love the cream color. Biketiresdirect is also amazing. Customer service has always been stellar and shipping is always fast.

This is the tire that you are fancy, if you just want to ride around or even race! Usually racing tires won't last, due to their compound rubber technology. But this handles really well + cornering with tires is really safe, they grip so well that you don't even worry about .

Amazing performance and comfort.

These have been my go to tires for a while now. Never had a flat with them and they feel really slick and fast. Putting them on is a bit of a hassle but with decent tire levers its not a big deal.

I went back to these tires after trying multiple other brands and found these just last longer and are significantly better for a puncture protection. They typically ride on gravel roads and show no scarring after hundreds of miles.

These tires r recommended as good tires but are nearly impossible to get on the rim. They are just way to tight, if I ever get a flat there won't be any changing along side the road cause I won't have the strength

I have used Contis for years and have made the transition to their tubeless. During the pandemic I tried another brand (supply chain) and they didn't have the same road feel, and durability was also less. I have continental tires on all of my bikes

The Conti GP 5000 is a great tire. They corner and roll well and rarely flat. I highly recommend them and Bike Tires Direct.

I have used Continental tires for over 30 years and absolutely love them

The Conti GP5K is probably today's go-to standard for a basic all around tire. I don't race, so I can't comment on it's performance under those conditions. But for the average rider, these tires roll very smoothly, are relatively grippy, and have pretty long tread life. I have them on all my bikes.

As a weekend cyclist I don't need top of the line tires. These tires work well and hold up on the sorry roads I I'm forced to ride.

Bought this tyres to replace sworks turbo tyres, Alot forgiving and bullet proof from pinch flats, Bike tires direct is very prompt and had it shipped same day, Customer service was very helpful and on top my issue when they sent me a defective tyres, after having assessed the situation, they sent me a new tyre right away! thank you!

This is used on my performance titanium bike. Very good durability. Use then on paved backroads and sometimes crushed stone trails common as rec trails in WI.

A little pricey, but probably still a good value considering tire life.

Used the 32mm with tubes for a month and about 500 miles after a 6 month back order. I ran over something that put a 1 inch slice in the rear and now that tire is useless. Maybe just bad luck but will not order them again. I'll stick with the 4-season or gatorskin.

Got the 28 mm version. Extraordinarily comfortable especially on chip seal roads which are very common where I live. Great grip on wet roads, too. A little pricey, but if you want to avoid disappointment, always buy the best; and these are the best.

6000 mile per year road rider and have easily gotten 5000+ miles regularly on them.
