Great successor to GP4000ii

Replaced older 4000 model and went from 25 to 28c. Rode is sublime and grip is as expected with new tires.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great all-rounder for all conditions. Sticks like glue.

Great tires that ride very smoothly and wear evenly. Absolute confidence when going through tight corners. I've found the GP's to ride a little better than the Schwalbe One's, which were my go-to tire for years. With disc brakes, I can ride the 32mm width versions which are phenomenal on all terrain and even a bit of dirt and gravel. I typically get at least 1500 miles on a set when I rotate F and R at around 750 miles (I weigh 205 lbs). Could probably get another 500 but the rear tire starts to square off a bit.

Thank you for your feedback.

Five Star Tire

Was a big fan of the GP4000 and that hasn't changed with the GP5000. I put these tires through the ringer. Do as much climbing as can be done in New England and with a dash of dirt roads thrown in the Conti's have held up great. Not sure of mileage(around 5000 miles) but I had three separate spots that were worn to the cords and no flats! Comfortable, good grip and mileage with durability. This is my go to tire, with latex tubes.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great tire for epic rides

I've been riding contis for a couple of decades and always appreciate their dependability, resilience and technical features. The 5000 is no exception. This is the tire you want under you for club rides, solo outings or epics centuries (or more).

Thank you for your feedback.

Love these tires

I rode the Continental 4000 for a couple of years as my go to tire. So I was sceptical about the Continental GP 5000 but these even better. (Lite, great grip on the road with a fast smooth roll.)

great tire but a little pricey unless you buy it on sale like I did

I am a casual rider about 15 to 20 miles 4 or 5 times a week , always on the 4000s until I tried the 5000s . Great tire , a little smaller in size than the 4000s . Rode a little over 1000 miles but ran over piece of metal and cut one of them badly but still riding on it. Hoping it will last a little while longer.

Thank you for your feedback.

Such a great tire! All around performance and reliability.

The Conti 5000 tires are such a great choice for comfort and performance. I won't buy any others for all around training and performance. I live in Tucson (desert) where I ride in 100+ deg. Weather and we have a lot of rocks and thorns. I have not had one flat with Conti 5000's since they first came out.

I would recommend purchasing. Watch for sales on biketiresdirect.

More roll for your money

Switched to the 4000 a couple years ago and have used them since. Lighter faster tire. You'll notice the difference right off the bat. For your everyday recreatonal rider these will do the trick. We usually ride at least 3 times a week and about 30 to 40 miles per ride. No problems so far.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great ride quality, excellent long distance choice

Only about 500 miles on a set of these but fantastic ride quality, and my perception is good rolling resistance as well. Too soon to judge wear/durability but no flats so far. Used almost daily on long distance recreational riding, and occasional commutes over decent quality roads. Hard to beat for overall performance.

Thank you for your feedback.

This tire performs as advertised! Smooth and grippy.

I have these tires on my light weight vintage road bike; they are perfect for long rides in wine country. They provide a smooth ride and great traction on fast curves. My old bike feels like a sports car!

awsome!!

im new to road biking, and i had commuter tires because i was afraid of flats here in Chicago suburbs but they were slow! i tried these and all i can say is WOW! what a difference. they are fast and very supple ride. the only fly in the ointment is i had to replace a tire after 200 miles, but could have been bad luck, the front is still fine

Very good tire. Good road grip, smooth.

Road riding on hard surface. Have over 2,500 miles on these tires. Only two flats, one caused by me was a pinch flat, nothing in the tire, the other was a staple I ran over. Nice riding tires, good road grip, they seem quick, but I am 75 yrs old, so not so fast. The only neg, is they are hard to get on and off the carbon tubeless ready rims I use. I am not riding as tubeless.

Thank you for your feedback.

Good tire

I've been riding Clement strata lgg tires and when the sale on these tires jumped up when I needed new tires I bought them. They went on easy and I could feel an improvement in comfort and I think in speed. Had them a few months now, they ride great.

Have been using Continental tires for several years. This is my first set of 5000's and they have lived up to expectations. I do a fair amount of city / road riding. No flats. No traction issues.

This is my third set of these tires. They wear very well, do not flat easily, and look great. I will continue to use them on my bike that does not have tubeless tires.
