Why Choose This Tire?

Lighter, faster and with stronger sidewalls.Ride faster, more comfortable, and with increased puncture protection.The new standard in road tubeless ready technology.Made to make you better.Handmade for You.

Tubeless Ready

Continental's carcass construction is robust and impervious against damage and penetration from foreign objects. The result: versatile, low weight and an attractive design. In addition, tires made using this technology can also be used as Tubeless or with an inner tube.

Black Chili Compound

With the legendary BlackChili Compound we have answered the eternal question of the best balance of grip and rolling resistance for cycling. The latest polymers as well as specially developed carbon black particles and filler materials deliver unique performance.

Vectran Breaker

Vectran Breaker is spun from liquid crystal-polymer to create a multiple-thread thermoplastic yarn. This partially crystalline fabric is more cut-resistant than aramid and its tensile strength is five times higher than that of steel. A Vectran Breaker is lighter, more flexible and effective against cuts than a comparable nylon breaker, without affecting rolling resistance.

Lazer Grip

Lazer Grip, to make you one with the road. The lazered micro profile structure expands over the tire’s shoulder and provides outstanding cornering.

Active Comfort Technology

Embedded in the tire construction the Active Comfort Technology absorbs vibrations and smoothens your ride.

Title: GP5K STR FTW!
Review: I went tubeless almost a year ago and I love these tires in 700x28C Black Chili.I was a little reluctant to go tubeless after hearing horror stories from others BUT I've had great success with these tires. DT Swiss tape, Stan's sealant, Muc-Off valve stems, and these tires all made for an easy conversion for me. I'm technical but I'm not a bike shop mechanic....all learned from YouTube videos on setting up tubeless.I'm unsure why some people have complained about installing these onto their wheels and getting them to seal but it's been pretty easy for me on Hunt, DT Swiss, Bontrager Aeolus Pro, and a set of Roval wheels also. It did take some extra effort on the Aeolus and by that I actually had to use levers to get both ledges to go over the rim but all went on within a minute of starting. Re-fitting these tires when used onto the wheels can be a chore to seal if you don't have an air compressor or charge pump due to them being stretched a little. But a simple air compressor line will get it to snap on pretty easily.The grip is phenomenal and the speed is right up there with all the race tires. Flat protection is decent and often self seals on small punctures and plugs work well with the compound + sealant. I had one tire I had to retire early but the slash was almost a half inch across the middle of the tread so i chalk that up to a hard failure for any road bike tire. Overall, the tire wear is satisfactory for my use with the grip it offers (I get about 3500 miles full life of a rear tire and get about 2 -3 fronts per rear); I'm a Clydesdale on a Madone that does a fair amount of climbing steep grades (5k miles and 195k feet ascending in 2023) and sprints with fellows riders in the clubs.All in all, I've recommended these tires to friends and have converted wheels for them from tubeless and have also suggested changes for those on tubeless already. Those that have tried Pirelli and Schwalbe like these tires just as much or more. Vittoria riders are usually the loyalists so I don't have a comparison 2nd hand from the club. There's a reason most of us run GP5K and I always recommend these to people that ask.

Title: Great Tire
Review: Good traction, puncture resistant. Worlds better than the Bontrager tires that came on my Trek. They are expensive. On the other hand, I no longer think about my tires when I go for a ride.

Reviewer: Don’t waste your money like me…poor performance, loud, incorrect pressure reading, have to hold it firmly to wheel as attachments are crap…I could go on….worse item I’ve bought on Amazon for some time..and trust me, I’ve bought quite a few.

Title: This is the tire!!
Review: Cannot believe how buttery smoove yet responsive this tire is! Was on Schwalbe Pro's before (tube), had a puncture on the rear tire and decided to swap to these. I got these a few months back as my plan was to go tubeless eventually, but I hesitated as i had no complaints with the Schwalbes. Only swapped the rear, and finally pulled the trigger on tubeless...Night and Day difference...tire just boosted my confidence as they felt rock solid, sticky, and like floating on the best tarmac you can imagine...thing is the tarmac here is awful, so I can imagine what it feels like on the good stuff. Amazing, love them, will order a next set just as backup!

Title: The Quality has gone down in the last few years, but it is still my “go to” tire.
Review: OK, the good is: the grip (wet roads, hot roads, cold roads) is amazing and confidence inspiring. Also, the low rolling resistance makes them fast. The bad: lower quality, lower durability and lower puncture resistance than the prior generations. This results in having to replace the tire more often.

Title: Great tire and the best price I've found
Review: I've had this tire on my road bike for the past couple of years with lots of miles on them. They have worn well and I haven't had any flats. There was no reason to change. The tires were purchased through Outland USA via Amazon. They arrived when expected and I will mount them in the near future.

Title: Awesome rolling resistance, but puncture too easy
Review: Like the rolling resistance but I've had to put tubes in both tires because the sealant leaked out of punctures i thought were small enough to seal. I like everything else about the tire, handles well and seems to wear evenly. I have about 400 miles on them. 200 tubeless and 200 with tubes.

Review: Genuine, new Grand Prix 5000's arrived in correct size and are new.I have no complaints. The tires themselves don't need another review; if you are looking at these you already know all about them.
