This band inspires my confidence, simply : good !!!

- Frank, 27 December, 2023

Have been riding these tyres on my "winter road bike" for years. I can't find better alternatives. Last one (rear tyre), however, had to be replaced after 3000 km, severe puncture of "staple". But yes, shit happens ... Let's be happy, and keep riding.

Pros & Cons

Ideal for spring and autumn
Looks great on a carbon rim
Traction, very good grip
quite pricey, since several years continuously
rolling resistance takes some getting used to

Enjoy cycling instead of popping tires

- Ko, 25 November, 2021

Have been using this tire for many years, because I hate having a flat tire. And that is exactly where this tire excels: in 10,000 km it had only 1(!) puncture. Also on gravel, wet roads with stones and shell paths at the coast no problems. You notice that it does not run as lightly as a gp5000 or Vittoria Corsa, but for a recreational rider like me this is not really a big disadvantage. Talking about disadvantages: the tire has become more expensive in the last couple of years (from 28 to 43euro), and the sidewalls sometimes have some loose threads. Shouldn't be allowed for a premium (read: expensive) tire like Conti. Fortunately this can be quickly solved by cutting them off. All in all an absolute must for the non-race rider who, like me, prefers cycling to sticking tubes in.

Pros & Cons

Brown side beautiful
Super puncture resistant!
Higher rolling resistance
Loose threads on side
Not cheap

Just do it!

- Dick, 1 July, 2021

After about five seasons of using only as a "winter tire," I am going to use my new set year-round on my racer. The current 5000 series has been very bad for me. And so I'm going to see how the 4 Season holds up year-round. In any case, it does not roll noticeably worse, and is also many times more puncture resistant! That's why it's also a great tire for gravel or forest trails. (Saves you having to buy a gravel bike!) It is a pity that Continental made the Black Edition of this tire extra expensive. The standard colored sidewall seems more expensive to make. But there must be a well thought out marketing plan behind it. Anyway, a super tire for the average (avid) recreational rider! Got the 25 mm on 6.5 bar front and 7 bar rear.

Pros & Cons

Good grip
Puncture resistance
Rolls well
Black Edition is even more expensive
Fairly quick to square
In 5 winter seasons never punctured
Pricey

Very solid, good band

- Bert, 20 December, 2020

28mm. Fitted as a winter tire, went without tools on Mavic Cosmic Carbon pro. Tire definitely rolls fine, plenty of grip on wet/dirty pavement but the GP5000 I use in summer (in dry weather) is still a noticeably different/ finer tire. I think you should buy this tire if puncture resistance and durability are at the top of your list.

Solid winter tyre

- Patrick, 7 December, 2020

My Ultrasport IIIs that came with my bike developed a gash so I replaced them with these in 25mm form. Feels as good or slightly better than the Ultras in dry conditions and massively better on damp roads. 600km in and no punctures (fingers crossed), and these were also easier to fit than the Ultras. Delivered way sooner than advertised.

Grippy, robust but harsh

- Steve, 18 November, 2020

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!

Pros & Cons

Grippy
Robust
Harsh road feel

4 / 5

Good fit on rims without use of tyre levers.

- Douglas, 5 November, 2020

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

seem good quality
well made
expensive
none so far

Great durable tyres at the best price

- Alan, 29 May, 2020

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!

Easy enough to fit

Reasonable price
Tough, durable
A wee bit heavy

Excellent winter tyre so far.

- Nick, 20 January, 2020

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.

Pros & Cons

They seem quite robust.
A bit wooden feeling to ride.

Grippy but cut more easily than expected

- Desmond, 7 January, 2020

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

Comfortable
Grippy
Cuts more easily than expected

Great tyres, puncture free rides here we cone

- Clive, 29 October, 2019
