ContinentalGrand Prix 5000 S TR Road Tire(Return to Product Page)

Very good tire. Never had a problem. They last a long time. The one down side is, they are tubeless tires and are hard to get on.

These tires are my favorites. Long lasting great rolling resistance and good grip on the road.

Smooth ride, durable, sticky. Ride as tubeless and while they require some skill to mount, they stay on. Hit a hole hard enough to bend an aluminum rim without deflating or unmounting.

This spring I finally switched to tubeless tires on my road bike and I am loving the difference it is making for me. I am riding on the Continental Grand Prix 5000 S TR tires. I rod over 3,000 miles this summer without a single flat. Additionally the decrease in rolling resistance has been noticeable. I really like these tires.

I've tried many tires, most are good. These are just good in all the areas. Rolling resistance, durability and grip. I have 100% confidence when leaning into a corner, whether dry or wet.

good and fast tires

20,000 miles on S TR tires size 25. Never a flat. I will switch to 28s next time. There is only a small weight penalty and I'll get a better ride. A bit pricey but I get 4000 miles out of back tires and 8000 miles out of the front tire.

GP 5000 tire - balance, performance, and durability in the absolute best package. BTD always has the best prices and exceptional service.

BTD is by far my go to online bike shop

I've ridden tubeless road tires since 2006 and at that time and for many years Hutchinson was the go to tire. As new tires came on the market I road a bunch but let going back. Until now. These Continentals are the new standard - supple, comfortable, fit to my wheels, contact and handling along with durability. Very nice!

Fast and hookless compatible. My go-to tire for all my bikes. Recently switched to GP5000 AS TR for my casual bike (Aethos) and realized how much faster the S TRs are. When you catch them on sale, stock up. Can never go wrong with some S TRs.

The tubeless journey started with the MTB tires and then I tried the road tires. This new version of the Grand Prix is superb. I have acquired the appropriate tools and I can now change this tire in my garage in 5-10 minutes. Check out the Park Tool wheel block, it makes it much easier to get the needed leverage. I have been using Orange Seal Endurance without incident. The occasional puncture gives off a little spray and then seals. I'm talking 4k miles this year without a ride ending flat. I ride in Central Oregon on chip seal and on local mountain roads with debris and pot holes and snow plow gouges. I continue to lower the pressure on the tires until this year 64 front and 70 rear. I'm 189 pounds and this has significantly softened the ride.

The tires are great. For a point of reference, I ride them on a Canyon Endurace - carbon fiber frame, aluminum wheels and Di2 drivetrain. 700x28. They are fast but, still smooth. A more comfortable ride than Gatorskins. They're very grippy. I'm taking corners and descending with these like perhaps and old man shouldn't. I did over time end up with gashes that wouldn't seal and had tubes in both tires before the wear indicators were all the way down. It's my third set so, I definitely like them. I weigh 210 lbs (95ish kg) and they last me 1500 to 2000 miles.

I outfitted my new dream road bike with these pricey tires, and I have nearly 1400 mi on these 28C tires without a single flat, despite frequently being unable to avoid rolling through broken glass on Chicago streets, so I'm impressed with the puncture resistance. Indeed, the tires are remarkably unscarred considering the miles. Similarly, the rear tire is showing minimal wear despite my 215 lbs, so I'm also impressed with tread wear. Together with the sweet ride, these are the best-performing Contis I've ever ridden, and I anticipate that they will serve me well beyond my typical life cycle of 2500mi for road tires except... Unfortunately, the loss of 2 stars in my rating is due to the regular appearance of threads peeling from the sidewalls approximately 5mm from the rim on my Enve SES 3.4s at what appears to be a subtle seam line. The threads of up to several inches in length fray from the sidewall of both front and rear tires, indicating the issue is not unique to a single tire. I trim away the loose ends, rather than pulling them due to concern for somehow compromising the tire. I've ridden mostly Contis for the last 40,000mi, and I've never experienced this issue with Conti road tires or any other tires on any of my bikes. Very disappointing for a pricey tire that's otherwise worth every penny!

This is probably my fifth or sixth set of Continental Grand Prix 5000 S TR Road Tires, and they continue to impress. It's the perfect all-around tire. I race almost every weekend, and it's a relief to use the same tire for both training and racing. No need for separate training and racing wheels with tubular tires'those can be such a hassle!

I've been running versions of the 5000 for 15 years. This is my first mount of the tubeless version. For me, they mounted easily on my Giant SL1's. I ride faster on these 30mm than on the fondo 32mm's that my Defy Advanced Pro came with. No flats. I run 60 to 65 psi front and back. More than satisfied.

Durable and light . Easy to mount on tubeless rims. Bead seals firmly to rim. I use these tires training and racing with good results.

After 1k miles ridden on this tires I can say Conti 5000 S TR new tire is better than old 5000 one. Feels like is faster, more supple and have better grip probably due to lower pressure. Max tire pressure for 700x30 is listed 70psi but since its made for tubless setup - shall be fine for even for heavier riders. No flats or cuts or other issues so far and based on regular tear and wear seems like I can squeeze more miles from those, compare to the previous Conti 5000`s.

Very good combination of ride quality and durability.
