Great price, quality product.
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!
I am new to the road cycle game so I was looking for a tire that I goog learn on and grow with. Living in Northeast Pennsylvania means that roads are not the greatest so durability in a tire was essential for me. The gatorskin fits both of these points for me and I have been enjoying them quite a bit. This also was my first time changing my own tires and from all of the reviews I read they were said that the Gatorskin was difficult to put on the wheel. I will admit that the first one wasn't easy but once i figured out the nuances of the tire on that one the second was much easier to install. Looking forward to many miles on this set of tires. 282 so far.
It snowediced in Portland this year which was incredibly annoying and made road conditions strange. Totally devastated my cheaper tires, cool until now, in the gritty aftermath.
After a few $20 replacements I got hip to the fact that Gatorskins would shoulder these conditions and I'm happy to report I've been flat-free for an entire season.
I'll give you 5 stars for now but if I recently bust please know I'll write a fresh review and excessively whine. Until then.
I put the 32s on my cyclocross bike to ride around town and bike trails and could not be happier. I'm shocked how easy they roll, similar to my 23s on my road bike, but so much more comfortable going over Wisconsin winter heaved and snow plow battered roads. Because of these 32s, I'm planning on getting 25s for my road bike. I know 25s won't provide as much comfort as 32s but they should help a little with comfort without sacrificing much speed.
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.
My go to training tire. Long wearing and good road adhesion.
Although Gatorskins are heavier, there durability outweighs the weight. Eat less to compensate for the extra weight.
Provides great protection against flats, rolls well and wares well. Been using them for years and have not found a better all around tire.
These tires are the best ,less flats and more riding. I may be wrong but that is what it's all about. T.O.
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.
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
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.
