Tire too tight.

- Bert, 8 April, 2022

I was not able to test the tire because even after much wriggling it did not fit around the rim. In the end, the thread broke and I could already throw the tire away.

Pros & Cons

The direction of travel is not indicated.
The tire did not fit around a 28' DT rim.

Not as good as its predecessor

- Maarten, 27 February, 2022

Very unfortunate that the 4000II is no longer available, this is not a worthy replacement. It immediately sprung a leak during the second ride and after a few thousand kilometers it has sprung 3 more. I had much less with its predecessor.

Pros & Cons

Expensive
Often leak
Stiff, so difficult to get around the rim
Wears out quickly

Never had as many punctures as with these tires.

- Jac, 18 January, 2022

Now to write a review anyway. Never had as many punctures as with these tires. It also does not feel like there is a puncture resistant layer in them. Not recommended

Leak resistance

No continental tires, bad for your wheels

- Patrick, 26 November, 2021

Started riding these tires last year. Very difficult to get around the rim. Also when punctured it takes a lot of force to get the tire off and move forward again. Fortunately the tire does not puncture very often. Not much later I switched to handmade rims. Because of the force on the spokes. The rim builder showed that this too small tire put so much pressure on the spokes that a reduction of 100nm per spoke could be observed. On his advice I took a handmade slick tire. Which not only does not press the spokes together. Also costs the same. And is much quieter, and better grip. My advice don't get continental tires. Very bad for your spokes/wheels.

Pros & Cons

Hardly rides flat
The tire is too small

Disappointing tires

- Onno, 12 August, 2021

I have had many 4000 s (II) tires and rode them in all weather conditions. Good tires, punctures on average once a year and perfect grip. The 5000 is a total disappointment. Every other week there is a puncture, they wear out very fast and in wet weather they slip in turns. I would hate to go downhill with them in wet weather.

Pros & Cons

No
Poor puncture resistance
Poor wet grip
Wear fast

Beautiful tire with lousy quality

- Julian, 3 June, 2021

First impression positive: coats are light, have low rolling resistance and look good. After 200 km then the disillusionment: crack in the side flank at low speed on smooth asphalt. This should not happen with a tire in this price range.

Pros & Cons

Low rolling resistance
After 200km crack in the side flank

Far too expensive for what it is worth.

- Gert-Jan, 7 May, 2021

After less than 1000 km a cut in the side so it can go in the trash. Inner tube comes through. Also not so good experiences in terms of durability with the 4 seasons tire. I will avoid continental in the future. Far too expensive for what it is worth.

Pros & Cons

Grip
Rolling resistance

Price

Too narrow

- Wiljan, 22 April, 2021

Always liked these tires but apparently there is a new version that is narrower than before. 25 mm is actually 23 mm, with my previous set of tires it was 26 mm.

Pros & Cons

Are narrower than specified

Too tight, leaks quickly and takes away all your fun.

- Thom, 1 August, 2020

Do you always want to stand on the shoulder of the road, make a weekly splash with your Co2 pump and never get your tires properly on your rim? Then this is the tire for you! Since these folding tires, I have been puncturing both front and rear at least weekly. 16 times in three months to be exact. After I replaced them with p-zero's all the trouble was gone: never again a flat. These tires are so thin, if you look at them they are already flat. And warranty? Hell no. Lost a fortune on tubes and cartridges, not to mention the purchase price of these tires.

Pros & Cons

Can't get around your rim
Leak as soon as you look at it
