ContinentalRide Tour - 26 Inch(Return to Product Page)

I just recently converted my old school 1993 Trek 970 Mountain Bike into a motorized bike. I needed some quality tires with Kevlar lining in them. I live in the Southwest desert of the USA and we have thorns and stickers that will give you a flat even with Slime in the tires. I have been using these tires for over a month now and no more flats. I highly recommend these tires. Thanks for reading and have a good day....

We use these tires on two of our around town riders, grocery-getter bikes. They replace the old knobbies which were literally a drag. Looking forward to putting miles on these tires and not the car tires!

I bought these a couple months ago now, have put a few hundred miles on them. All paved bike trails and street riding. No flats yet.

They roll a lot better than the MTB tires I replaced with them. Cant really complain. Im by no means a bike tire aficionado, but for the money they seem great.

Ordered these to have a more enjoyable road experience on an old mountain bike. They roll well and are very durable.

I put these on my mtn bike for spring training rides before I get my road bike out. I ride on a trail system that is built on an old railway right of way. I ride a couple of miles on the road to get to the trail and these tires work equally well on pavement, gravel and packed dirt wet or dry. Not by any means for real mtn bike terrain but a great tire for combined road and easy off road use.

I bought a new 30 speed MTB racing bike that came with Kendra 26X2.0 Small Block Eight tires. I immediately replaced them with these Continental 26X1.75 Ride Tour tires and the difference in performance is unbelievable. These Continentals are amazing. The ride is smoother, the bike is faster and the traction is unreal! I was looking for a good all around hybrid tire and these Continentals are more than I could ever have hoped for. I'm 100% satisfied. The quality is exceptional. Thank you Bike Tire Direct!

great tires very good pricing

I bought 2 sets of these, one to replace some 26 x 2.125 mountain bike tires and one to replace some treadless 26 x 1.6 tires. I definitely like how both bikes ride with them and definitely notice a reduction in rolling resistance compared to the old mountain bike tires. My only complaint was that I had difficulty getting the tire to seat correctly on the rim. When i first installed it part of the bead went down into the rim so the tires was out of round. Correcting took a few tries of deflating and inflating the tube while pulling on the low spot to get it right. I have never experienced that issue before even though I have taken the old tires on and off a number of times.

A great all-around tire I use on my gravelcommuter bike. It rolls well and zero flats so far and a steal when you buy them on sale!

i use the tour ride tires around the city they are very good tires as for the price a good price for the tire you would expect to pay much more, i give it a 5 star in quality, and a 5 star in value.

A comfortable, grippy tire that was designed for casual riders who don't intend to put in long rides.

I road commute everyday. These tires seem resilient but can't seem to hold air well. My tirewalls show a 102 max PSI, (85-to 102) so I'm suprised by the specs listed on this site.

Difficult inflating these. Unless I'm able to max out the pressure, the bike feels like its riding thru sand during inclines. Frustrating.

I recently tried injecting max air pressure using the Shrader adaptor.When I unscrewed the adaptor, the Presta-valve plunger popped out like cannon fire. Now I might need to replace the tube! Not that happy wtires overall.

I use Continental Gatorskins on my road bikes. These Continental Ride Tours are the answer to replace the (original?) tires on my recently purchased lightly used 30-year old vintage Trek 7000 which I bought as a neighborhood rider to keep at my daughter's house to ride with the grandkids. The price was right and the product description hits the mark. Eight thumbs up.

Good road thread design, easy mounting and great price. Most all tires are equal for their 1st year !

I got this to convert my cheap mountain bike to the commuter road bike. These tires fit perfectly and allow for a very smooth ride on my mountain bike.

Easy rolling on asphalt and ag lime. Ok for light trail riding. So far so good.

I've been using these for my commute since December. They are better in the rain than the slicks I use during the summer. They are not what I would call fast! But more importantly, so far I've had ZERO flats! Totally satisfied, especially considering how inexpensive they are.
