Pros & Cons

Fine band
Great tire, putting it on takes a little more energy, but it works!
5 / 5
Exceptional grip
Top product that manages to improve especially in durability and smoothness the excellent characteristics of its predecessor, also highly recommended for those who do not do but want the best especially in terms of safety.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Do not hesitate!
The choice between winter tires and summer tires is no longer necessary with these. With continental's you drive all year round, in any type of weather, with excellent tires.

Tire too tight to mount smoothly - once mounted okay
I have been using Conti's for years, but am not so satisfied with the 5000 series. It is simply too difficult to mount. With an aluminum rim I don't mind using a tire lever, but with an expensive carbon rim I really don't like it. In my workshop it is already a chore for 2 people, let alone if you have a flat somewhere on your own. Conti really needs to improve this in the next series!
Pros & Cons
3 / 5
Fitting is very difficult; so far this tire rides superbly.
Still too little riding experience with these tires for an informed judgment. This is the first tire I have had problems mounting on Campagnolo-Eurus rims. Tried all the known tricks and it worked, but with the skins off my hands!
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Just fine band
Nice tire and good to mount if you are a little handy and just be careful when inflating that he lies all right

Excellent straps!
These are just fine bands. Minus points I haven't discovered yet. Good thing no one charges the recommended retail price, or few cyclists would buy them. Buy.

Superband!
Since about 3 years I switched from Vittoiria's to Continental, formerly the 4000, and now the 5000 series.I used to ride standard with the 23 mm width,then with the switch to Continental tried the 25 mm width and what a difference and comfort !!! Now I once got the 28 mm version,only rode 1 ride with it yet but this will surely be ok. I ride with the continentals everywhere,gravel,cobblestones,trails,regular roads,and in those 3 years I had 2 punctures. As long as I ride the bike no other brand for me than Continental !

Great tire.
I've only done 500km with the continental gp5000s, but I think they're already very good. I had installed a new Vredestein on my rear wheel, and I had two punctures in a week.

nice band
Neat tire just like the 4000, but unfortunately the very tight fit doesn't fit the rim it was intended for. It would be better if the sizes better matched what it should be
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
An excellent tire for the fast and the pampered cycling tourist.
Easy to get on the rim, even with cold fingers. Low rolling resistance.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Great tire for great price
I have been using this band for a few years to my satisfaction. And this time I was able to combine it nicely with another order, so I didn't have to pay shipping costs. Price/performance for this band are good and at Mantel I pay a great price.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Quality at a great price.
Tire with good handling characteristics and few punctures.
Pros & Cons

Very good tire. No punctures yet (and already worn a few).

Ride on
Top product, am with the tires also already driven over gravel roads! So puncture protection is very good! The best tire what I know

Great grip
This tire sticks to the ground and rides very comfortably
5 / 5
Highly puncture resistant and track resistant
Since switching to the continental GP4000 two years ago, all I can say is that it was the best decision ever. Now with the arrival of the GP5000, that satisfaction has only increased. The tires roll smoothly, are very resistant to punctures and wear, and they give you a lot of confidence when cornering, and this in both dry and wet conditions. No more other tires for me.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Outstanding band
In summer with Conti inner tubes of 50 grams, the rest of the year Conti inner tubes of 105 grams. With the 50 gram inner tubes, the GP5000 runs nicer. The sound of my aluminum wheels is then like music. So far (1900km) I did not ride a flat. When I go into the mountains in the summer I mount the 105 gram tubes for safety reasons. I have the GP5000 in the 25mm version. These ride better in all respects than the 23mm.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Fantastic
I had the Gp 4000s and was very good in all respects, and these Gp5000s are even better.
5 / 5
Great value tyre
Very good quality and the price is great in this bundle. Never have any issues with the GP 5000 tyre.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Upgrade of the band is super
After having always used the 4000 series, I switched to the 5000 series and I am very satisfied with it. The rolling resistance is even less than with the previous series and the grip in wet weather is even better, which means that the quality of the effort is at its highest.
Pros & Cons
3 / 5
Better 4000 II S
I have ridden with them about 2000 kms, they go well, but I don't like them. They deceive in the specification, the 25mm (1") ones don't even reach 23mm and they are extremely tight to the rim, it is impossible to mount them by hand. The tires MUST BE MOUNTED AND REMOVED BY HAND with no detachables. I use Lightweight wheels and these wheels do not use tire levers. I have discarded this tire and do not recommend it to my customers.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Super tires
Best tires I have had so far. Durable, low rolling resistance and grip. The rear tire was worn out after 7500 km. Only had one puncture due to a nail.
5 / 5
super outer tire
excellent outer tires, strong and from previous experience these do not ride flat easily.
Pros & Cons

Fine straps
Immediately good grip and little resistance. Excellent successor to the 4000 series
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Easy enough fit and fast rolling
I bought these for a great price and found the 25mm more comfortable than my previous 23mm tyres. Good rolling resistance and happy so far.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Very good tires very smooth excellent grip hard to puncture
I have always purchased Continental tires are a security they never disappoint x me the best.

Nice tyre but splits too easily
This is the 3rd tyre to have split this summer - I do a lot of miles, but can't help be disappointed by that. That said, it's a lovely rolling tyre.
5 / 5
Very good tire bolt very well!
For a long time I used the Grand Prix 4000 also very good tires, now the Grand Prix 5000 for the first time. Bolts even better anyway and so far no punctures either so that's OK too! Great!
4 / 5
Good tire but pricey
Good tire, easy to mount. Has a very nice design. Price could have been less.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Perfect the fourth one already. Not a single flat tire!!!
5 / 5
Nothing to say safe value
Improvement of the GP4000, easy to mount on Racing Zero Carbon by hand, see over time but comfort and grip nickel, only to see the durability in kilometers ... we'll see uasge
Pros & Cons
2 / 5
Good racing tire
There is almost no way to put the tire on properly. Ended up costing me 2 tubes and 2 plastic tire levers. Then took it to the bike shop. He even had to use an auxiliary tool to put the tires on. Next time I will buy the 4000 series.
4 / 5
These straps feel really good.
After putting these tires on, I really feel like my bike has less drag and rides more comfortably. It will be psychological, but they ride wonderfully.
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Lightweight, high-performance tire
The 23C tire, combined with the Tubolito tube, is around 100g lighter than my old tubeless and preventive set-up. With an equivalent level of comfort and performance. After 500 km, no punctures or gouges.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Unprecedented grip for higher cornering speeds
Before this I rode with the Continental 4000 tires, which in themselves are good tires. But the 5000 really has much more grip in corners. Especially with my height (2.07) and weight (122) this gives much more confidence in corners.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Goes smoothly and nicely with good grip
Was running on 4000 before these tires feel softer with good cornering grip
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Continental is the best tire on the market
Fantastic in both road holding and durability
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
excellent tire with good features with excellent value for money
5 / 5
Top tire, with super ride comfort
With this tire you have a tire on your rim that is ready for all types of weather. Even with wet weather you can easily get through the corner.
4 / 5
Fast tire with plenty of grip.
With new tire punctured almost immediately due to cut in side of tire. Had to throw the tire away immediately. The tire is fast and light, but it has its disadvantages. It does have a lot of grip and little rolling resistance. So I bought the same tire again.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
The best tires for their money
Before this I had 25mm Grand Prix 3000 tires. I wanted new tires for that so I went for the upgraded version + 28mm tires. What a difference. More grip, it rolls smooth(er), you can (if you want) ride around with less air pressure and very affordable! Some people experienced difficulty getting the tires on your rim, I didn't have that problem. Can definitely recommend them
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Very fast and great grip
Meanwhile my 2nd set of 5000 tires are on them as successors to the 4000. Tires feel very fast as far as I can tell as a cycling tourist. Seems a little more sensitive to punctures but that may have been bad luck.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Perfect tire with great comfort
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Definitely Continental quality
The tire have an incredible gripe but as you may suspect this comes with a price, a low durability. However, it seems to be quite resilient with more of 2000km I have not experience a flat yet.
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Good to assemble,the first few rides no problems
3 / 5
poor quality
high wear and faster leak than the 4000 series

Best Tyre
They roll great, very comfortable and give me a lot of confidence descending and cornering
5 / 5
Just top, very high quality tire
Tires purchased for the second time. They are perfect and extremely durable. Very few punctures over 5000 km. The tires are still not to be thrown away after 5000km, German quality.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Confidence at every turn!
Have been a loyal user of the Conti's for some time now. Bought a new bike this summer and it came with the Vitoria pro tires, fine but I missed the sharpness and the familiar feeling in the corners, it seems like these tires stick to the road, and yet a lower rolling resistance. Do have the idea that with the 4000's I had fewer punctures, but that could be coincidence.
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Fast tire but rear tire is quickly worn flat
Fast tire but after 320km already flat rear tire.Here the 4000s2 was better

Pros & Cons

sticks nicely to the road
4 / 5
performance resistance
Very good performance, good resistance to punctures, a little less than the GP4000, I think, and the same goes for longevity.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
I know the product, is well known.
I know these tires, among cyclists/enthusiasts these Continentals are popular, the extra thick tread minimizes the chance of punctures.
5 / 5
Great tire, also great to mount.
For a few weeks now I have been riding the Continental Grand Prix 5000, 700 x 32C. The tire runs significantly lighter and the riding comfort is also significantly improved. All in all, a very good tire that I can recommend to everyone.
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Good outer tire with great grip in many conditions.
Good tire. Lots of grip in many conditions. Durability I don't know yet, only driven 220 km. Not cheap, but good quality for now.

Rubber flies off at emergency stop
Have always driven Conti for its wear and puncture resistance, this has unfortunately been lost to achieve low weight. During an emergency stop, where normally only a flat spot appears on the tread, a large piece of rubber broke out. In 8500km I used up 2 rear tires. No more Continental Grand Prix 5000 for me.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
good roll
Got a puncture after a few miles when a staple went through the tire. The biggest difference from my old dried out GP 4000 tires is that these are much softer to drive on and I think these roll a little better too.
4 / 5
Solid set of all-arounders
Low rolling resistance, perhaps wears a bit faster than the GP4000 II

Roll resistance and puncture resistance top notch!

Fine tire. Rides well
Great tire, easy to fit and drives fine. Good grip in wet conditions.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Top tires!
It was a very good choice to buy these tires. Good grip, low rolling resistance and very comfortable. No punctures to date. However, the tire is more difficult to mount because it is tight around the rim. But in short, highly recommended!
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
basically a good band
After a whole spring and summer of problem-free riding with the GP5000, I suddenly had to replace the rear tire and inner tube twice in a short time due to a (too) big cut in the tread. It seems that the vectran layer is not strong enough.
