Best tire Ive had..
Love the ride
These work well.
Use them on a race and so far this is the faster tire That I've ever had, I'm very please with them.
Hugely disappointed with these. Within a few rides of installing them I double-flatted on a road I've ridden many times before on Gator Hardshell's with no issues . Small goathead thorns punctured both tires. For the price I expected a lot more. I'm going back to tried and true GH's.
These tires are probably fantastic for many applications, but they are no match for even the smallest thorns Mother Nature can create and throw on a rural road.
Great tire and looks great!
Easy to mount. Smooth rolling. Grip feels more than adequate. Not many miles on them yet, so I can't speak to durability.
Love this tire! Handles great on steep winding descents, very sticky but with great rolling resistance.
Very comfortable ride. Long lasting Tire. Thanks
Upsized to 28mm - faster and rides better
Had GP5000 25mm previously - great grip, and smooth, quiet ride - rear wore out pretty fast though
More flats than I'd like though
Improve handling and speed
They are really good tires will buy again
Marketers tell us, new and improved, but I cannot really tell the difference between the 4000 and 5000 tires, both roll fast and are susceptible to sidewall gashes. My rear Grand Prix 4000 and 5000 never wear out in the rear tire, they always gash out in the sidewall.
I put Grand Prix 4000 tires on my Giant, and was very happy with the ride and handling. I thought if the 4000 tires worked so well I would go up a notch and purchased the Grand Prix 5000 tires for my newer Specialized. The tires did not disappoint the ride and handling is just as good if not a little bit better, nice tires.
I have always enjoyed brand new tire, but the continental gp 5000 is exceptional . The road feels is excellent the bike handling is superb.
Buy 4000, new GP 5000 wears way faster.
My Bike instantly was faster!!
Short rides with moderate hills, decent but not great paving quality. Put the tires on an older Bianchi Eros that doesn't get a lot of miles these days.
Awesome tyres ! Good for training and racing
These are excellent tires, but if I did not know whether I was on my older 4000s or my new 5000s I could not tell the difference.
