Best tyre for me so far, club and recreational rider, but haven’t tried Pirelli or Vittoria

28mm 5000 S TR working well for me on Hunt Race Aero rim brake wheels.

Pros
  • Best tyre for club riders
  • Good mounting on Hunt rim
  • Grip
  • Rolling resistance
Cons
  • Price!
  • They can get crazed in time

Performance tire but less firm than predecessor.

I went through 2 punctures with this tire on short notice (within 300km). Initially the sealant (Stan's Notubes) did its job but eventually I had to screw in a rubber thread to get some extra mileage out of it. Because the tire is very thin, sealant and a plug cannot really work efficiently and punctures are basically the end of the story for this tire. The 5000TL was much better in this respect but unfortunately no longer available.

Pros
  • easy to mount
  • low rolling resistance
Cons
  • not as puncture resistant as predecessor 5000TL
  • price

Perfect

Really nice. I switched from 325 gram gp5000 tl 28mm that weight in on 325 gram. These str in 25mm is only 243 grams. Very happy and the discount around Xmas made it worth to buy. Don't hesitate, buy them. Mounts without Tyre levers. 25mm is 24,7mm on the rim.

Pros
  • Easy mounted
  • Soft grip
  • Very light
Cons
  • Price
