Stable and durable
Suitable for cycling other than smooth asphalt.
5 / 5
Very good grip in wet weather
Very satisfied with the 28 mm I've been riding with for years in winter, so now chose the 32 for once. Only plus points
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
virtually puncture-proof
Solid tire for poor weather conditions and on dirty, greasy roads.
5 / 5
Great wet weather grip
Bike now feels stable on bends and wet roads, also smoother on rougher tarmac surfaces. I would definitely buy these tyres again.

Fine band, and easy to attach

Excellent quality tyre
Excellent quality tyre and relatively easy to fit too which is perfect in case of a puncture out in the cold Winter weather
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Perfect racing tire for winter riding.
Very solid and affordable outer tire for late summer and winter. The sturdy casing reduces the chance of punctures during winter rides. Also easy to mount on the rim.
4 / 5
Grippy, robust but harsh
Got these to replace my GP4/5000s as I was riding different roads during these work-from-home times and was getting few side wall punctures as we move into winter. Haven't had them too long but they are still grippy, they are definitely more robust but the price you pay is that they ride a lot harsher - you really feel the road surface it is anything other than billiard-table smooth. Obviously a bit more rolling resistance too. For me, this is a good trade off for the winter but will definitely swap back to the other tyres when we get back to summer!

Good winter tyre
I needed new tyres for my winter bike and didn't want to be having to change inner tubes at the side of the road. With this in mind l researched the best rated all weather tyres on the market. These seem to get consistently good reviews and are from a trusted brand. So far l find these grippy and roll well for winter tyres also not too heavy so bike still feels quick. No problems fitting these & no punctures so far, let's see how long they last.

Great choice
This is my second time buying these tyres for my commuter bike - the tyres offer an excellent level of grip and puncture protection, even on poorly maintained roads.

Fine tire with dirty weather
This weekend I rode outside with these 4 season tires and I liked them a lot. They gave me more security in the corners and on dirty roads. Until now very satisfied
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Top fall band.
The conti 4 season has good grip. Especially with the many rotting leaves it gives a safer feeling. The tire sits firmly around the rim.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Best tyre I have ever used on the road...
light (ish), fast, very grippy in wet and sludge, no punctures... these things makes you realise why winter tyres don't have to be a compromise
4 / 5
Good fit on rims without use of tyre levers.
Never used these particular tyres before, but on first use they seem to be well made and roll better than Conti Gatorskins. They were easy to fit with thumbs only on the off-set rims of my winter bike. No observable lumps or wobbles when rotating wheels. The 28mm. stated width seems true to size. Not cheap, but hopefully that will be reflected in their performance.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Excellent purchase
As my first rides on different surfaces I found it good. Nice soft tire, doesn't feel so smooth however I never looked for performance.
5 / 5
Best band ever
Been cycling for 30 years. Never had such comfortable tires.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Robust and consistent
Great tyre that is good for the colder months and shrugging off the stones, winter debris and pot holes. I use this tyre on the rear to give extra wear and use a Conti 4000/5000 on the front for a bit of extra grip.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Happy with this purchase in Corona time to bike through fall, winter and spring
Very good tires for the months with R in the month.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Surefooted grip
I've had the Continental Grand Prix 4 Season tyres on the bike for a couple of weeks now and I'm really impressed with the grip to the point that I can't remember feeling so confident in wet weather conditions. I also decided to go for the slightly wider 28mm and paired it with a wider rim wheel, which despite the small weight gain, seems to roll pretty damn good.
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Good tire for winter
Rode it all winter last year. Never a puncture. A bit heavier and slightly higher rolling resistance than the regular Con ti though.
4 / 5
good tire
I've been out in the rain and this tire seems fine. I had 23s before and you can really feel the difference when you switch to 25s.

What a fine "wet weather" tire!
Big fan of the Contintal tires. So is this tire that I usually mount at the start of autumn to get through the darker time of year on my Ridley racer. Comfortable and very grippy and therefore confident through corners at speed on the Posbank! Highly recommended! Easy mounting. Approximately 6 bar pressure and go with that tire!

Perfect tire for between seasons
The perfect tire for the shoulder season

Best Winter Training Tyre
This is my go to winter training tyre for the tough Scottish lanes. Great grip in all weathers and not bad rolling resistance for a 28mm width. Puncture resistance is good too and i think i can count the number i've had on one hand on these in 5 winters. Great price and quick delivery too from Mantel to the UK.

peeling fabric
very good tires , unfortunately I have to change them after one year because the fabric on the sidewalls is coming off .
Pros & Cons
1 / 5
may not fit on American wheel sets
Conti's do not fit around the rims of my scott plasma standard alu wheels, with some difficulty they do on the fur carriers of my trek 1400. The schwalbe's or pirelli's are slightly wider and fit with ease. seems to be more common with some american wheel sets.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
They have never let me down
I've ridden these tyres for years, sometimes in the most atrocious conditions. They have yet to puncture or even cut. They last for ages, and are comfortable too. Yet they manage to be pretty fast as well. What's not to like?
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Top quality road tyre!
I've only been riding with these for 2 weeks now so can't give a long term assessment, but so far so good! They were pretty easy to put on too. Not too tight.
5 / 5
Best all round all year tyres I have tried.
Great tyres for all weather, except ice. However, in the wet they stick to the road amazingly well. I have used this brand for years and I have yet to find a better tyre.

The only winter tyres you'll need
Title says it all: great winter training tyre. Amazing prize from mantel.

Last 2 times as long!
They are my favorite tires because you almost never bike them flat (because they do last about 5,000 km.

Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Perfect
Of course I am enjoying my purchase of Continental Grand Prix 4 Season- how could I not! They are the best tyre ever. They stand up to filthy, gritty, bumpy, muddy country lanes throughout the winter. Great puncture resistance, but brilliant rolling. Faultless in my experience. And Mantel was one of the few companies to have them in stock - at a reasonable price.

Second pair after more than 3000 km. An extremely versatile tire with TOP value for money!
Second pair after more than 3000 km. An extremely versatile tire with exceptional value for money from Mantel. Smooth feel and good grip on asphalt. Holds its own on rolling roads. Very good longevity. A must-have for both weekend sports enthusiasts and discerning amateurs.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Excellent band
32 mm tire for the winter season with a disc race bike. Tire falls slightly wider on the wider race rims measures 33.4mm. So if you have 38mm clearance you can mount it on a discracer. Went very smooth on the rim.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Excellent outer tire
Excellent tire. Gives great confidence in the wet. Only thing I would like is a wider one: 37 or even 42mm.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Excellent tyres for just about everything!
I have been using GP4 Seasons for years as they are tough, fast enough and give confidence in all conditions. For anything other than racing, (although they are good for that too in many conditions) I won't use anything else.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Excellent all weather tyre
Have been using the Grand prix 4 season for several years now and have suffered very few punctures. Worth paying the extra for that peace of mind.
5 / 5
Just a super reliable outer tire.
I gladly take the slightly higher rolling resistance, already tried 4 other types, but for training rides and daily use I prefer to put these on.

When I cycle, I feel safe and secure.
Now that autumn comes with rain and leaves on bike paths, I feel safe with a tire that has more grip. I also don't have to worry about punctures.

this time I had more trouble with the tires, so I punctured them easily for the first few km, but it was strong glass, I'd say :s

I love these tires
I wanted tires with a road feel, but also able to go off-road. For me, the right compromise. I gain speed, with good grip in corners.

Get the job done
Very good tires for the bad season, good grip in cool weather, puncture-resistant. Very good tire performance. Don't hesitate to choose a wider section than the summer tire.

Disappoints me
Cycled about 1000 km now with these tires and in terms of grip very satisfied. During my first vacation ride on a paved road in France I had a flat. I honestly did not expect that.

Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Super quality
The tires feel different than a regular tire. The sides are a different material than the riding surface. The tires give a lot of grip and I notice that cycling is easier, even from my average speeds we can tell that I am using these tires.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Great Grip
Just fitted these Conti GP 4's, was on summer slicks & got caught in the rain today, really glad I had changed them. I even trusted these tyres in the wet corners, looking forward to getting plenty of miles out of them without changing them into Autumn.
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Great durable tyres at the best price
Always impressed with Conti’s and these don’t disappoint! Reasonably minimal rolling resistance for this level of durability - yes, you’ll find faster and lighter tyres but not in combination with their puncture resistance on all surfaces! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Pros & Cons

Great tyre - great in wet or dry

Best all-round performance tyre
These tyres excel in the wet. Reasonable wear rate and puncture resistance. I have fitted a pair of 28mm to some hunt aero wheels and we're easy to get on the rim.

Great tyre for early/late season and rough surfaces.
Bought to ride some cobbled climbs and ride on rough road surface. Good grip and comfortable ride due to 28mm width.

Excellent winter tyre so far.
I bought this as a winter tyre. I’m hoping it will cope with the wet & ice and with all the rubbish and stones that get washed into the road. So far it has but I’ve only done about 200 miles since buying them.

Reliable Continental quality
German quality as usual and will see me out a few years’ winter riding like The last. Good puncture resistance and grip in the wet
4 / 5
Grippy but cut more easily than expected
Reading all the reviews it seemed like this was the perfect tyre! Unfortunately they are not, they grip well, roll nicely and are very comfortable. However, they have cut quite easily and I've had a puncture albeit on bad British roads in winter. Previously used Gatorskins which never gave me a puncture but lacked comfort and grip. Will return to them as my go to winter tyre when these are done.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
