Reviews over the

Continental Grand Prix 5000 S TR

I’ve been using them for well over two years (about 7,000 km a year outdoors) and, until a few months ago, I was very happy with them, but during that time I’d mainly been biking on dry roads. In recent months, I’ve almost certainly had a puncture whenever I’ve biked in wet weather,

Pros & Cons

Nice and fast tyre, but absolutely unsuitable for non-summer conditions. Punctured twice and that within less than 200 kilometres of riding. This tyre never again.

Pros & Cons

I thought better

With the 5000 I rode >10,000km and only punctured once with 2 tyres! But I hate punctures, so I spent an extra €10 per tyre anyway for the 5000STR which scores better on puncture resistance. A waste of money! In 2 weeks 2x punctures on a grain of sand! There is no sign of a puncture-resistant intermediate layer! Just rubber.

Pros & Cons

Been punctured 6 times in the last 4 weeks ! Both with an inner tube and tubeless.
