This tire has been very reliable! This is my third purchase of this tire and will continue to purchase!
Now I don't have much experience with bicycles and even less with tires, but I went to a few shops and they all said the same thing about these tires really good, but kind of expensive. With that said, I got these tires because of how much this place was selling them in comparison to the shops that I asked around. I've had these on my hybrid for about 2 months now? How do they ride? perfect. Haven't had an issue yet. I have ridden in light rain to hot days. I haven't had an issue yet! Again, I do have to say, I don't have much experience with bicycle tires so I may not have much to compare it to though.
Have used Gatorskins for my all-around road tire for several years. They are more resistant to puncture than other brands I have tried, they wear well and handle well. I like the folding version of the tire because it is lighter which is always an advantage.
I've used them for years and they standup well and perform great
I ride about 10k miles a year and ride only gatorskin now. I've tried other tires but these get by far the fewest flats and last between 6000-7000 miles. Best tire on the market in my opinion.
Just a great all around tire. Less puncture resistant than other Continental tires. There is some added weight but well worth it especially in the winter with all the cinders and salt on the ground.
I have been using these tires for many years and they are the best for flat free rides. Won't use anything else
I ride year-round, seven days a week. Conti Gatorskins are my go-to tire for reliability.
Price was outstanding. Very durible tire
Have used these tires on two bikes over the last 6 years. Rarely have flats. Mileage seems good. I think the folding tire may be a little easier to mount than non-folding
Cannot beat these for a tire that can be used foff for training and racing due to there high reliability from flats. Heavier than 5000s. If you have ever seen a triathlete on the side of road attempting to change a tire during a race you now know what I am writing about.
Excellent winter riding tires. Good for the commute to work and home. Not afraid of being stuck on the road due to a flat.
My wife has been using this road tire for 5 months and no flats to date. If you ride a lot of miles then this tire may be for you, tough, durable, and a comfortable ride.
I bought these for my commuter bike. After close to 2000 miles over two years, they still look almost brand new and I have yet to (knock on wood) have a puncture. These tires are light, smooth rolling, and most importantly, very tough. I have taken them on city streets, hard pack gravel, and dirt trails, and they work great.
I just retired my rear wheel's 700 x 25 Folding Gatorskin after 5700 miles. I'm 6'3 and weigh 230. I ride suburban and county road club rides in temperatures as low as 10 and as high as 95 at rolling speeds from 14 to 21 . I inflate to 110 psi before every ride. I've been very pleased with the comfort, grip, and durability of Gatorskin tires.
Use Gatorskins for training and fitness. Like the looks and the durability.
I use this tire for my all rounder because it is tough especially with someone over200 lbs! I get 2-3k out of each tire. I use them on all my day to day bikes including my Tandem. They are some tough tires!
Good tires, easy to install
I live in New Mexico and we have tons of goat head stickers. I use the tire on my road bike and the puncture resistance is amazing. However, the side wall will puncture if you happen to roll over something sharp. I've used these tires for 10+ years.
Use on all my road bikes. Rolls great and puncture resistant.
