How do you mount these?

Frankly, I have given up trying to mount these. A lot of anguish and the effort to mount them even drew blood. What a waste of money!

I am a long time cyclist and not a rookie at putting tires on rims. This is not the first difficult time I've had with Continentals but even though the others were difficult this is the one I finally gave up on. I had to give it one star as zero isn't an option.

Can I have my money back?

Thank you for your feedback.

Impossible to mount

Absolutely impossible to mount on Rovals. Literally, will not go on. Tried everything including a tire jack and heating the tire. Took it to LBS; couldn't do it, either. Would give it zero if I could since it's useless.

Thank you for your feedback.

GP 5000 STR

These tires are way easier to mount with much less finger damage and swearing the the GP 5000 TLs. I've only ridden a few hundred miles without any issues so far, but clearly not enough to speak to longevity. So far, seems to have a similar ride feel to the previous GP 5000 TL. These tires are very hard to come by. Waited about 4 months for the set.

Thank you for your feedback.

These tires roll great!

Love the roll! Smooth, reliable, fast. Can be a little tough to mount the first time but I consider that a good thing.

Great Product!! The only tire that I will run on my bike.

I have been running TL tires now for several years and found the Continental Grand Prix 5000 TL to be the best tire around. Great performance in both training rides and races and peace of mind knowing I am running a great tire. Highly recommend this tire, it may be a little pricey but well worth it.

Thank you for your feedback.

THE BEST tire.

Best tire made. LIght but thick rubber to prevent punctures. The best tire to get to avoid flats.

Thank you for your feedback.

Hookless Rim Compatable GP5000 - Finally!

ENVE approves only hookless rim compatible tires for use on their hookless rims, so I'm glad I can now safely try a GP5000 set. (I know a number of people have gone through the difficulty of mounting the earlier hooked GP5000 tire version on ENVE hookless rims, so these new tires ought to make them much happier too.)

Best Road Tire

Easy installation, fastest rolling, and I've had no flats. GP 5000s seems like the default answer for the best road tire.

Best all around tire

I ride as much as possible and I have had really good luck with the grand Prix 5000's. They roll nice and are comfortable but you can also not be afraid to go fast.

Thank you for your feedback.

I don't ride anything else.

These are the most smooth rolling solid tires I have ridden. Big improvement over the tl. No problem getting them to seat. Ride rival wheels.

Thank you for your feedback.

Nice looking but poor quality and overpriced.

Got a flat 3 miles into my first ride. Not using them anymore. Nice looking but very poor quality and, definitely, way overpriced.

??

I had a few sidewall blow outs when running below 90psi. Now I use a tube and kevlar for training rides outside. Defeats the whole purpose of tubeless, but having flats is no fun!

Great price, easy to install, great use, slow shipping.

These tires are very easy to install and look excellent on my bike. I can see the rolling difference in speed. It took a while to come but I am very happy with the purchase and the price.

Outstanding ride

I installed these tires on my Zipp Firecrest with ease. The low pressure afforded a comfortable ride with outstanding handling. I plan to replace my other rides with this sett.

These are great tires. I bought the transparent version and I love the way they look. The tires also ride very smooth as well. I'm definitely satisfied.
