Great tyre
5I use these tyres for training, and I have never had a flat. I would highly recommend them.
Report this reviewGreat all around
5I use these on my commuter and I can think of no complaints. The tire is great in any type of weather, rolls fast, is very durable, and just excellent for the price.

Not sure if I was just unlucky but I had more punctures on these than my Michelin Krylions (which were cheaper and rolled better). I had several deep cuts through the tyre wall within 1500km which isn't great.
If you want supreme puncture resistance and can spare the coin go for a Schwalbe Durano Plus.
Best high-speed commuters. Period.

These tires have seen everything : dirt, rocky ground, rain, snow, mud, glass, metal shards, you name it! I've never had a single puncture with these, and I feel very comfortable riding them at around 50 kph in traffic. The handling and braking is awesome for such a solid tyre.
Would recommend to anyone - plus they're so cheap on this website!
A fast training tire that doesn't compromise performance for price.

With its great combination of protection, durability and performance, Continental's Gatorskin tire is an all-around winner - and quite possibly the best training tire available.
Puncture protection rivals that offered by Specialized tires featuring Armadillo technology, yet offer a significantly more comfortable ride and last much, much longer.
The three plies of 60 tpi casing are not exactly equivalent to a single layer of 180 tpi casing, however, the Gatorskin's ride quality, suppleness and overall performance rivals that of tires costing a lot more. While rolling resistance is not as low as its Grand Prix 4000 S sibling, the Gatorskin is still a surprisingly fast tire. It feels very secure in wet conditions, too. You simply cannot go wrong with a Gatorskin!
Excellent Tires
5Mount them and forget em. I've ridden 6000+ on Canadian pothole filled roads and have had ZERO flats. Don't look any further than these great tires.
Report this reviewPuncture proof
5I've ridden these tires for training for almost 5 years now, typically putting between 5-8000 miles in per year and I've had (0), yes that's right, ZERO flats since then. Considering I ride in the burbs of Chicago, where road litter is widespread, I think that's pretty impressive. Highly recommended!!

What can be said about Gatorskins except: their tough. I've got about 1500 miles on my current set and they are still going strong.
Why only 4 stars?
a) they're heavy
b) not very fast
c) I had one tire that had a sidewall blowout after only 3 weeks of use. Not sure why. But the replacement has been great for nearly a year.
If you're commuting or training and not concerned about running at top speed then you need to buy them. I've never found them as cheap in the US as they are here on PBK. Especially if you can catch them on sale!
durable
5So far these tires really hold up to hill climbing/decent duty cycles. I've run them on my trainer and still going strong. These tires are a real bargain.
