Do not fit Mavic Kysirim Elite UST wheels
As a user and fan of Continental 4000 tyres I welcomed the new 5000 tubeless and bought a pair at a great price from Mantle. I and several experienced people, including those at my local bike shop, tried to fit them to on of my Mavic Kysirim Elite UST tubeless-ready wheels with no success. Even if it had fitted it would have been impossible to remove in an emergency if out riding. Continental advised me at Ride London registration that they would fit but now has confirmed that the tyre is not compatible with this wheel set. I am stuck with a new tyre that is unfit for purpose as it cannot be refunded because I tried to fit it. However, at least Mantel have kindly agreed to refund the unopened one. Many thanks, Mantel. Poor from Continental service though.

Too tight - couldn't fit them.
These tyres are just too small to fit my Giant carbon wheels - gone back to Giant Gavia race 0 tyres - fitted by hand no problem.
