5 / 5
Continental tubulars combine robustness and performance
More than 10 years in continental and not about to change

5 / 5
I don't need or want anything else
Easy to put around your wheel with double-sided tape. Been riding 3000 km with it and never had a puncture. Nice and safe for yourself. I sprayed a sealant in it myself against possible small holes.

Super tires!
Super tires. Pasting the tubes is a labor-intensive affair though
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
The tubulars are now fitted on my winter bike ready for the appaling pot holed roads of Somerset.
Prefer tubulars as easy to replace if punctured in poor conditions. Plus faster and more grip. The sense of security is much higher than riding clinchers.

2 / 5
poor puncture resitance
I used this tyres for years, recently my last 3 tubular had punctures when the tyres were close to band new, one was at the valve...very poor puncture resistance....not the best tyre on wet floor, will change to another brand.

I really recommend this product
I use these tubulars in races and they're just the best! No punctures, super comfortable and hold the road really well.

Fine tubular tyre, good quality.
Fine tyres, gives slightly more rolling resistance but certainly not as much as mentioned in several reviews. Nice appearance and good grip

Good tyre
Always rode with inner tubes but now new tubular wheels. Been cycling with them regularly for 2 months now both flat and in the Limburg hills. Recently injected a sealant in them to hopefully ride even MORE flat-free (for the feeling).

Best value for your money
I think Mantel publishes only positive reviews. Here we go: Top tube. Best quality for this budget!

German grundigheit, but it doesn't roll at all.
After several incidents on the road with Challenge tubes, now opted for the rock solid Gatorskins. They feel robust, although they are rather bonkers compared to the Challenge's. What is quite disappointing is the rolling resistance. It is high. If, like me, you find speed quite important and enjoyable, this tyre is not recommended, because you pedal your butt off. More suitable for fat-burning rides.

After several incidents on the road with Challenge tubes, now opted for the rock solid Gatorskins. They feel solid, although they are rather bonkers compared to the Challenge ones. What is very disappointing is the rolling resistance. It is high. If, like me, you find speed quite important and fine, this tyre is not recommended, as it pedals your pleurisy. More suitable for fat-burning rides.

Value for money...top
Several kilometres on a wooded path that's more suitable for mountain bikes or cyclocross (wrong route)...and no problems. Personally, it's the sign of a quality product.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Very reliable for many miles
Rode around with the previous one for two years. Had 1 slow deflate and then filled with some latex, then many miles again. Does take necessary sweat to get on my Edco's despite pre-stretching.

Good value for money
Tube with good value for money. Easy to install.
Pros & Cons

Durable tube
Ideal tube for the mile-eater. On long rides, you don't have to worry about punctures, which is always a downside with tubes.

Smooth confident ride.
A lovely tyre, smooth and confidence inspiring. Soaks up the bumps and rolls nicely over our choppy English roads!
