Continental Ultra Sport III (Folding Bead)

Traction isn't up to higher-priced tires, most notable under braking. Otherwise, this is a good training tire.

I'm getting 4 times the mileage of my other tires. Very economical! The graphics look sharp too!

For the price these tires are hard to beat. I purchased a set of 28c's for my CAAD8 race bike when the GP5000s were unobtanium. Even flying through corners I can't tell a difference in grip between these and the GPs. They don't feel quite as supple in the hand, and are very slightly heavier but for a savings of $20 per tire I can live with it. These may be marketed as more of a training tire, but they certainly have racing capabilities as well.

I got a pair before a 7 day 545 mile trek last year. Flat free the entire trip, which rarely happens. They are supple enough for a great ride yet roll fast and grab the road well. I replaced them this year with the brown sidewalls and I like them even more.

It's still new for me, but so far it's been great. It was easier to install than I imagined given that this is a folding bead. I can feel the difference when I ride compared to my previous tire -- it is certainly smoother.

I live and ride in a very hilly area, meaning I'm heavy on the back wheel when climbing and heavy on the front, when bombing down at over 40mph. This is my second set and the rare times they do slide they are stable and predictable. I wouldn't call them super long life, but I can imagine on the flats they would be a great long term tire.

these are the best inexpensive tires i have used. great looking tire with great grip. my only complaint is they lack some of the liveliness that a more expensive tire would give, but expected that. were tight getting on the rim had to use tire tool. overall great training, touring tire.

I've been riding the Ultra Sports for a long time now. For me they have been the best tire for my money.

Great tires for good price

It's a tire,works as you expect. Easy to get on the wheel, and a smooth ride.

Mounting was tight but accomplished on first try. Cracks in pavement no longer a hazard.

Grippy. Added near the end of the season, will know more about wear next year.

About 150 miles on these. No issues. Looks really great. The colored sidewall is far enough from the tread that it doesn't get dirty. Light enough. Zero complaints. Great band for buck.

Really nice, high value training tire.

Great performing tires in wet and dry conditions.

Easy to mount and ride great.
