Once continental gp5000, it’s really hard to adapt to other brands🤭

The goat for me are the GP5000 in 28mm the only difficulty is that they are a bit hard to get on the rim

GP5000 + Vittoria Latex Tubes, best combination in terms of puncture protection and rolling resistance I‘ve tried

Had GP 3k in the ancient past, then 4k series, switched to half-the price "just" GP at around 2016 (have 2nd pair in use). These feel slower (specially if brand new). Get faster (or feel faster) when worn a bit. All 23 mm, tubes. The only drawback of GP-s is that the side wall cracks show up fast and the singular fibers peal off. Though withstand 8, usually used at ~7 bar. Great? Sure! Lately bought Michelin Power Cup 25 mm ones for a 2nd pair of rims. In use with RideNow TPU tubes. Must say - pretty good.

Good vid. You should defo check the Good Year Eagle F1r and the Michilen PowerCup. The power cups are warping my mind.

The GP5000 are a great tire. I switched to the Pirelli P Zero's this year. For my self I will stick with P Zeros

Agree with all that. For winter riding or bike packing where you are carrying a load, I would go for Conti Grand Prix 4 Seasons or Pirelli P Zero 4S.

Gee Tom, will be interesting conversations when the Reps visit the shop...good on you for voicing an opinion

I had bad very experiences with Vittoria Corsa, too tight, too stiff so it was quite hard to install them. The whole tyre is porous so it needs to be very well covered with sealant. Now riding Maxxis High Road and they seem to be pretty good so far.

Old Pirelli p zero velo is still my favourite

GP 5000 STR in 28mm and 32mm. Just works. Some complain they puncture too easily, but they also seal very well so not a concern for me. Will be using with TPU this fall and maybe that will change my outlook.

Try Panaracer Agilest. I switched to them after Conti discontinued the Attack/Force combo. Extremely well made, light, smooth running/no bumps, wear well (rear squares off much more slowly than the Force did), zero punctures so far. I'm running the 23/25 normal ones, they also make lighter "Light" and slightly heavier "Duro" versions which I haven't tried yet.

Goodyear f1 eagle is worth a look. P zero is my favourite. No tire lever install wins out over crashing and burning on the wet corners...

IMO Continental makes the best road bike tires and Maxxis makes the best MTB tires, no contest!

Im seeing 7 hundred different P zero. which one are those?

I'm sure the continental gp5000 is great. But when I look for a tyre I first look at the tread pattern. I go for something kinda slick but also still usable in wet conditions. And it just looks like a pure slick apart from a bit of tread on the side walls. I just couldn't trust it as permanent use tyre (in England) For braking hard on the wet/dirty roads. So the (5) must only be in dry conditions. - I'm probably going to get the VIttoria Rubino Pro. 30c front, 32c rear. I'm not sure if it matters if I get a ridgid/clincher or a folding tyre. I'm fairly new to road bikes. And also trying to convert to tubeless tyres.

Have the gp5000 in the 32mil. Very happy.

My main point is FUCK road tubeless. Just use clinchers with tpu tubes. Lighter, faster, easier

I really like the Pirelli’s. More thank the GP5000’s

Nice vid Tom. Great review on the tyres

Been enjoying the new Vittoria Corsa N.EXT tyres. I find then more comfy than GP5K and just as fast rolling. Love to see your evaluation on it.

Great review Tom. Would have liked to have seen the Maxis HYPR on the list. I ran them for a few years and they seemed faster and more comfortable than the top of the range Pirelli P Zeros at the time. Just changed to Goodyear Eagle F1 and I'd say I've taken a step back 😔

Great video! I might have to finally give in and try the gp5000s 😅

Vittoria Corsa Pros accounted for most of the punctures at Paris-Roubaix last week...GP5000s feel great when they're new, but after about 1500km they become harsh and the rubber compound seems to degrade... I've moved all my road bikes and gravel bike to Pirellis...

I had a choice between 28mm tubeless vittoria corsa/corsa control and gp5000 32mm (wanted to try something wider, like 30mm but it wasn't in stock so f it) non tubeless (and already have some ridenow tpu tyres ordered). Pretty much the same price point, gp5000 s tr was too much for me honestly since I am more of a MTB rider anyways and ride road just for training and couldn't in my sane mind convince myself to pay 65e per tyre when I ordered the whole set of non tubeless for 80 lol. I hope that i will like the gp5000s XD

Challenge Criterium RS TE series TLR. 230g for 25mm! 350 TPI casing! They are fast!

i would like to see maxxis HYPR and michellin power cup competition on the list. heard lot of good stuff about the maxxis and michellin but dont know what to go for.

Schwalbe 28mm tle go well on my bike!

Very helpful Tom.

pirelli pzero okay but which one ? pzero race ? pzero race sl tlr ?

Test the Maxxis super high road tyre

I’m 103 kg The gp5000 str 25 mm is the best tyre ever created

Pirelli Zero !

Rubino pro II is the most underrated tyre out there.

Hi Tom Good review. What is your opinion about the Specialized Robaux 25mm tyre and tube combination?

GP 5 is light years ahead of the old but great GP 4

99% are the same 😅

GP5000 are no more difficult to get on than any other tire. Most people have no technique.

Can I get a couple of those tires lol

Conti GP5000 are a great tyre but they just cannot get the sidewalls right. Just had a new tyre herniate in 2 places after less than 400 miles.

conti all the way bru

can i get a review on gator 🐊 skins

Had a couple of Vittorias fail... I can't trust them as a brand anymore.

Love my Schwalbes

I am a gp 5k guy

Cadex tyres are awesome

Are you talking about the gp5000 STR I assume ?

Hutchinson fusion 5 just as good half the price!.

Conti GP 5000 and not look back!

Conti 5K

Gp5000 or I'm walking
