Reviews over the

Continental Grand Prix 4 Season

In my opinion the best tyre for winter. Tough, but also quick enough for tempo training spring and autumn. My go to tyre always when winter arrives.

Pros & Cons

Tried all the competition, and I always come back to this tyre. Best wet weather grip, and puncture resistance is superb. Don't waste your money on anything else.

Probably the best all round road tyre. I have used several makes - Michelin, Schwalbe, Conti and Specialized, and several versions of each. These come under the fit and forget category. They are light and only marginally heavier than the 4000sii's. I have never had a puncture on these in more than 1000 miles. The grip is noticable and remarkable, particularly in 25mm as opposed to 23mm. Some tyres are good for no more than 1000 miles max - these go on and on and on.

Pros & Cons

All year version of the gp4000 2. Good grip, smooth ride

Probably the best winter tyre on the market.

Pros & Cons

Very nice tyre , good grip and nice hard side walls. Recommended for the good old English weather. Lol

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Good tires best value , last long , anti puncture this tyre is best for high mileage highlight recommend .

Pros & Cons

Good tyre puncture resistance really good. Ideal for winter on shit roads . Good price

I approximately ride 200 miles a week in Scotland through the Glens with cut up gravel packed roads. Only having 3 punctures in 2 years says it all. Also hard wearing and rolls fast! Look no further!

Pros & Cons

Saw these at the rouleur classic show and bought straightaway a bit hard to fit but ok once on. Perfect on my zipp wheels for the winter on the road

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Great quality road tyre.

Pros & Cons

I've owned these in various sizes and cannot fault them. The 32's are fantastic. They handle everything you throw at them and in return they fill you with confidence. Very comfortable and yet fast rolling with little resistance. I just completed a 600km Audax with 33000ft of climbing. Hardknott Pass in 16 mins. Super tyre.....if you've got the clearance you should own a set

Pros & Cons

Fast, durable all weather commuter or training tyre.

Pros & Cons

Tried many but these are the best combination of grip, weight and durability!

Pros & Cons

Used in place Schwalbe Marathons on my tourer. Lighter, more subtle and so spin up faster and comfortable. More grippy in cold or wet too. While these offer only moderate puncture protection compared to my (one puncture in 30,000km) Marathons, I have found these cope with the usual road debris.

Tubeless may prove to be the future but this is the nearest thing to puncture proof that I have ever ridden. Last set of tyres from putting them on my bike to them wearing out, not one puncture running at 90psi on 28mm tyres.

Pros & Cons

Great grip, top quality and long life - not suffered a puncture yet - I love these in 32C - very comfy ride!

Pros & Cons

Really pleased with this purchase, great grip, smooth rolling , comfortable will definitely recoment

After trying numerous different tyre makes I tried Continental 4 Season and have stayed with them for the last 10 - 15 years.

I like these tires. They roll nicely, have good grip, and doesnt get easily punctured. I worn out one pair after 3000 kms, maybe not the worst.. I hope new pair will last longer.

Pros & Cons

I've used Grand prix 4 seasons for a few years now and never had any trouble with them at all.They grip really well,even in the wet and their puncture resistance is superb. I have a pair on my winter/commuter bike that have done 9000km and are still going strong.

Pros & Cons

Good traction for wet roads

Pros & Cons

Good grip and good puncture resistance on both tread and walls.

Superb product superb service highly recommended

Always use these tyres summer and winter.

Pros & Cons

Great all round tyre perfect for the dismal british roads. Have taken all i can throw at them from road to gravel and in between. Great price from Mantel

go to tyre for the winter, great grip in the cold, high puncture resistance, lowish rolling resistance, high mileage tyre

Pros & Cons

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

Great product. Great sec=vice

good tyres quick delivery

Pros & Cons

I’ve recommended these tyres to so many of my friends. An extremely reliable tyre that works perfectly throughout the year, in wet or dry conditions. Haven’t had a puncture since using them!

Pros & Cons

Excellent year round tyre that wears well and is reasonably puncture resistant.

Pros & Cons

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

Excellent grip and resistance in all conditions so you can ride safely and with confidence. Good compromise between performance and durability. Highly recommend!

Pros & Cons

Great grip and all weather confidence. As good as the reviews suggested

Continental GP4 Season are just a great all rounder and a great all year round tyre !

Pros & Cons

Love these tyres, good grip and power hook up with the added bonus of no punctures

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.

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

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

Fabulous all year round tyre. Good puncture resistance and lots of grip.

Pros & Cons

Title says it all: great winter training tyre. Amazing prize from mantel.

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

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

Very good pneumatic

Good grip and puncture resistance but still an acceptable rolling resistance

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

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

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

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

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.

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

Last Set of tyres lasted two winters, Never had a Puncture

Great tyres for the winter bike Grip and feel of these in damp cold road conditions fill you with confidence going through bends and lanes Fully recommend

Pros & Cons

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

Bike now feels stable on bends and wet roads, also smoother on rougher tarmac surfaces. I would definitely buy these tyres again.

Pros & Cons

These tyres are the perfect solution to your winter rides. Great puncture protection, long wear tread . All round best value tyres.

Quick delivery. Product as described. Would recommend Mantel.

I found these to be very grippy on wet roads especially when cornering, tyre pressures are individual but you need to find your sweet spot to get the best out of them

Pros & Cons

Bought these continental grand prix 4 season to replace my vittoria pro I've done 100 miles on them so far and can't fault them good grip on wet roads would recommend to anyone

Pros & Cons

One of the best all round road tyres. Reliable to help minimise punctures.

Always stick with the 4 Seasons, been great for over 6 years.

Pros & Cons

Bought for winter use and the puncture protection offered as had GP4000 on prior to these. Nice ride and dont feel any slower and hopefully no more punctures in the cold and dark.

Pros & Cons

a good tyre choice for year round riding

Pros & Cons

I’ve had sever sets of these tyres. Great for winter road use. Light and quick but most importantly they don’t really slip on corners and drain covers. I’ve never had a puncture despite hitting some alarming size bits of metal and other road debris. If you don’t mind the expense then personally I think they very good.

Pros & Cons

Confidence inspiring in these poor road conditions without compromising the ride. Excellent tyres.

Pros & Cons

These really are excellent tyres. They’ve give you so much confidence in the winter conditions and seem to be some of the best reviewed regarding puncture protection

Pros & Cons

I use these all year round in UK conditions and rarely suffer punctures. They are long lasting, superbly grippy and excellent value. Super service from Mantel as well, fast delivery and fun packaging. Happy camper.

Pros & Cons

Bought these tyres to cope with the slippery UK winter roads. Normally run on Gatorskins but not enough grip for winter use. GP 4 Seasons feel reassuringly grippy with good confident handling on wet and muddy roads with very little compromise on rolling resistance. Haven’t had a puncture yet, either.

Pros & Cons

These seem to be excellent tyres, I've not yet done many miles on them though. Being foldable they are quite easy to fit, less of a struggle to get over the rim than wire bead tyres. Quickly delivered and well packaged by Mantel.

I've used these for a number of years now, my go to tyre. Commuting, training rides, wet, dry. Performs at 35 Deg C and also at -4C. Good grip in the wet, no issues to date, and good rolling in the dry. Easy to pup on and off if it's ever punctured. Managed 9 months on a tyre before started getting more regular punctures from sharp stones on back lanes, once worn too much. But that's just time to change.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

I have been using this tire for at least 2 years, so very pleased with the product.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Excellent grip, durability, puncture resistance and light weight. What else do you want from a winter tyre and great all-rounder? Also best price from Mantel.

Durable . Robust . Safe. Love em!

I looked at several different makes of tyre, but these seemed to be by far the best all round tyre for every season. They are also puncture resistant, offering more piece of mind and very easy to fit and great value. The black edition look great on my Ribble. I'm really pleased with this product. I would definitely recommend these tyres.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

After multiple punctures on new "3 season" tyres, I decided to go back to the old faithful 4 seasons - so far, so good :-) My expectations are that they will prove as reliable as they were in the past. Best price I could find was at Mantel - happy to continue to do business with them !

Pros & Cons

Great tyres for all year use, with great puncture resistance - would highly recommend!

One of the best winter options available

So far great tyre. Good to have a wide option for rougher local roads. Adds a bit more comfort to the road bike but without sacrificing grip or puncture resistance. Only ridden in the truly wet or ice so far and not been let down.

Pros & Cons

helps to cope with current weather conditions and COVID 19 circumstances

Great tyres & service

Pros & Cons

Great set of tyres, replaced old continental 4000 2, happy with the purchase

Pros & Cons

Been using them for many years along with Conti Gatorskins

Pros & Cons

Continental Four Season are my "go to" tyre, and I ride them all year. I'm not a fan of punctures, and with these I only get about one per year, which takes five minutes to change. They have great wet grip on too, and only weigh about 20 grams more than GP5000. Very hard wearing tyres, but they still feel great on the road and very fast. It's great that Mantel stock the 32mm and 28mm as well, as they cope well with terrible British Road surfaces!

Pros & Cons

Now use this tyre for both winter and summer seasons. Slight increase in rolling resistance vs GP5000 but excellent durability and grip in all conditions.
