Canberk Switched to these wheels from Pro4 Endurance v2, definitely rolls ten times better and they are probably one of the lighest tyres in the market.

For all the performance, they offer pretty decent puncture resistance, and about average durability. Then spin the tyre (wheel) to spread the Conti RevoSealant inside of the tyre and pump to the allowed maximum pressure.This model is tubeless-ready and hookless compatible, and Continental says the weights start at 300g per tyre. We're not sure if the tread will actually last more miles as we don't have a test to measure a tire's mileage, but given the different spec of Black Chili compound, it might be a bit softer. These for Conti would be an ongoing operational cost and unless a completely new product which requires additional human resource and or new testing equiptment or machinery. Light, fast, and grippy, the GP5000 Clincher Tyre packs in Continental's latest technology for performance and comfort.

It’s good to have it there (any extra visibility through the early British springtime is a bonus, in my view), and it manages to achieve its aims. Some of them are essential for the operation of the site, while others help us to improve this site and the user experience (tracking cookies). I would suggest being careful with these as the bead is very tight to my rim and did find it required some persuasion with some tyre levers!A 700 x 28c black tyre weighs in at 343g (including a retaining band) on my scales, 63g more than a 28c tan-walled S TR. This edition comes with all the technological features you know from the regular Grand Prix 5000, plus its rich cream-colored sidewall. We hand build wheels in the UK with meticulous attention to detail and when we are not doing that, we are out riding with you. We've tested the 25-622 size and will compare it to the 25 mm version of the 5000 S TR and a bunch of other tires from competing brands. The tyre is available in widths from 25mm up to 35mm - so plenty of widths even for a commuter bike, and you can choose from black or cream sidewall colour options.

Excellent ride quality and grip, reasonably fast, and very puncture-resistant (both tread and sidewalls). This tyre was already released last year as a limited edition 25mm option to celebrate the 2022 Tour de France, but it's now also available in plusher 28mm width. uk is an Introducer Appointed Representative of Pay4Later Limited, trading as Deko, which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN 728646). Tod I just installed a 25mm GP5000 up front, replacing the Panaracer Race A Evo* I've been running for most of the winter. Spider silk like Vectran™ has an enormous tear resistance at a very low weight: Exactly the right properties to process into a premium Continental bicycle tire as a puncture protection insert.

That said, the extra rubber and layer of casing material also serves to reinforce the tyre against puncturing, which will lend greater confidence to anyone who likes to seek out rough back lanes on their rides. Please tick this box if you're happy to be contacted by Cycle Division (MotoDirect Ltd) to speak about your review whether it is negative/constructive or positive feedback. The GP4000 was never a high end road racing tyre, because it was a clincher, and the pros all ran tubulars. The sidewalls are much more robust and now have 4 layers of 110 TPI casing material instead of the 3 layers on the 5000 S TR. The 28mm's roll so fast and they make easy work of the terrible state of the pot holed roads in the UK, where I would smash over them normally on 25's, the 28's are real luxury.
