Tight Fit

Installation of this tire was extremely hard. It took all my power plus some to get this tire on my TR wheel. However, it filled up with air with my floor pump easily. So far, the ride on this tire is real nice.

Thank you for your feedback.

Very fast lack durability

Once you break them in, they are the fastest tires I ever had, vs Schwalbe Pro One, Conti GT 5000 TL.

They are really a race or time trial tire, with a bit more puncture protection.

I bought a set of Schwalbe Pro One TE. They are listed as only 15 grams more, but they seem 2X as durable.

Thank you for your feedback.

what it's said is true about this tyre

This is probably the highest rated road tubeless tire in the market and it does live up to the accolades. According to my bike shop, it was super easy to install/set up. I have been riding with these and they are very smooth. So far, I have had a great experience.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great tire overall!

So far I would give them a 5/5 except for two minor things. They are quite difficult for an older fellow with arthritic fingers to get on/off the rims. Also they tend to lose air and need topping off more quickly than one might expect. Perhaps that is standard for tubeless set-ups or maybe for hookless rims.

Thank you for your feedback.

Fantastic tire!!

Mounted on Zips 404 Firecrest hookless wheels effortlessly and I feel confident cornering in both wet and dry conditions. Rolling resistance is negligible from the Continental TL 5000 (28mm) tires I had previously, ride comfort, just fantastic!

Thank you for your feedback.

Continental Tubeless Road tire

This is my first set of tubleless tires and so far I love them. Ride is smooth and no more having to change a flat out in the cold weather

Not durable.

I liked the first iteration of these and waited for the second iteration. Mistake. Ruined 2 new tires with in weeks. One sidewall and one big cut. Didn't seem to have much protection. Unfortunately I have several left in stock. Will run them as front tires now.

Thank you for your feedback.

Buy Them, these tires ride great!

Not the easiest to install or seat onto my Hunt carbon ribs, but once set up, these tires ride extremely well and even took them on gravel trails. Ride great on the road and trails.

Thank you for your feedback.

Last set lasted 3750 miles without a flat!

No more flats, but fairly expensive.

Seems durable and easy to seat!

Too early to say how durable this will be over the long run. The one thing that stood out was how easy it was to get this seated on my tubeless rim - no sweat at all. Definitely not the case for the Vittoria Corsa tire it was replacing which was next to impossible for me to seat.

I have used similar Continental road tires for years with tubes, so I expect great results.

Thank you for your feedback.

Much Easier to Mount that GP5000

I did not have the hand strength to mount the GP5000. I am able to mount the GP5000S. They roll easy and have good traction. Overall great tire.

Thank you for your feedback.

A very good tire, easy to set up tubeless.

I run this tires tubeless and they were easy to install without levers and inflate with a track pump. BTD�s price was excellent so lm very happy.

Amazing tires at a great price

I absolutely give these tires a 5 star rating. They are hands down the fastest, smoothest, and puncture resistant tubeless tires I have used. I was hesitant to make the jump to these tires, but after using them in Lotoja with no issues whatsoever I'm definitely a believer.

Thank you for your feedback.

Love Contis!

I went tubeless last year with the older style GP 5000 TLs, put well over 5000 miles on them with no problems at all. So far these new ones seem to be more of the same even better if that�s possible.

Thank you for your feedback.

Tires are Slow and Bouncy.

The rolling resistance of this tire is too grippy and slow. They are also bouncy over bumps in the road. My average speed is one MPH slower with these tires. The surface of the tire is rough not smooth like Schwalbe Pro ONE TLE 700c Road Tire (HS493). if I could afford to, I would remove them and install Schwalbe Pro ONE TLE. I find the Schwalbe Pro ONE TLE 700c Road Tire to be a faster with less bounce.

Thank you for your feedback.

Super fast and grippy

Very happy with this tire. Feels as fast subjectively as my turbo cottons, corners better. 28s set up easily tubeless on roval clx 50s and hold air well. Plumps up to about 29-30 measured, depending on your internal rim width.

Not your Dad's Continentals

Tried new Conti 5000 and side wall definitely under performs in puncture resistance. Half a dozen rides ?? pretty $$$. I felt nearly bullet proof on 4000's. Its either some really bad luck or these are just slow racing tires.
