Continental Grand Prix 5000 S TR Road Bike Tyre

The Continental Grand Prix 5000 S TR is the perfect tyre for performance-oriented cyclists who are looking for absolute speed. Thanks to an updated production process, Continental was able to reduce the weight of this tyre by 50 grams compared to the Continental 5000 TL. In addition, the "Lazer Grip Technology" that gives the tread such good grip expands over the tyre shoulder. This gives the GP 5000 S TR optimal grip in the corners. This laser-cut profile improves the airflow around the tyre for better aerodynamics. The tyres are also suitable for biking with hookless rims up to 5 bar, so rolling resistance can be brought to a minimum.

More stability and comfort
The GP 5000 S TR has an updated carcass, giving the GP 5000 S TR good stability in corners and at high speeds. The tyre is also equipped with an Active Comfort layer. As the name suggests, Active Comfort ensures a high level of cycling comfort. The Active Comfort layer has a shock absorbing effect and dampens vibrations from the road surface without affecting rolling resistance. The Grand Prix 5000 S TR therefore provides a comfortable ride with optimal rolling resistance.

Excellent puncture protection
Lastly, this Continental tyre has a Vectran anti-puncture strip. This additional inner layer offers improved protection against punctures. Continental claims that the risk of punctures is reduced by 20% compared to its predecessor, the Continental Grand Prix 5000 TL. With this improvement, Continental makes a significant contribution to the durability of the Grand Prix road bike tyres. With the Grand Prix 5000 S TR, you will be as fast as lightning and as light as a feather!

Black Chili Compound
A perfect mix of polymers, especially designed soot particles and filler components ensure excellent performance in terms of grip, rolling resistance and little wear and tear to your road bike. The carbon particles incorporated in tyre compound formulas for road bikes and mountain bikes ensure an advantage in performance. They improve the limits of rolling resistance, wear and tear, and grip.

LazerGrip technology
Continental has laser-processed the edges of the Grand Prix 5000 S TR for optimal grip on the road surface when cornering. You can really feel the difference at high speeds or in wet conditions!

Active Comfort
This tyre is equipped with a shock absorbing layer directly under its surface. This Active Comfort layer dampens the vibrations from the road surface. The increased comfort level allows you to stay in an aerodynamic position for longer, giving you a riding experience that is unparalleled.

Vectran Breaker layer
The Vectran Breaker layer is an anti-puncture protection layer under the tread. This strip prevents sharp stones, twigs and glass splinters from passing through the outer tyre and reaching the inner tube. With this anti-puncture strip, you can enjoy your ride fully, knowing your tyres are protected against punctures. Various Protour teams constantly test the latest technologies in order to offer reliability to the consumer.

Tubeless monteren kost wat meer moeite dan een band met binnenband: reken op 20 tot 30 minuten per wiel, zeker de eerste keer. Gebruik een stevige (vloer)pomp om de band in één keer op de velg te 'knallen', giet er minimaal 30 ml sealant per band in, door de kern uit het tubeless ventiel te verwijderen. Hierna plaats je de kern weer terug en laat het wiel ronddraaien zodat de sealant zich verdeelt.

Twijfel je of je het zelf goed doet, of wil je het uitbesteed hebben? Onze Mantel-werkplaats zet je nieuwe banden voor je tubeless.
