In my 30 years of riding and racing, I have decided that Continental tires are the only "premium" clincher that is really worth the premium price. I usually get the GP 4000S or the 24mm Grand Prix, but I decided to try these just to save a little money.
These are functionally indistinguishable (by me) from the top of the line, so I will be buying more. I also like the 25mm width for a bit of a more connected road feel.
I would take ANY MODEL Conti over any other brand. These are an excellent Conti race/training tire.
Perfect for what it is
5Awesome tyre - pretty rugged - I have used them for a few months and I have not had one puncture on my hybrid bike - definitely not a race or training tyre - more of a commuter, but still no loss in speed or anything

4These tires came stock on my bike. Very quick and sticky in the turns. They look like higher end race tires. Durability, however can be a bit of an issue. At about 500 miles I had a sidewall blowout on the rear tire, and the relatively soft rubber can be prone to cuts and pick up debris if your riding on bad roads. To be fair I was riding on particularly terrible Mississippi backroads exploring new routes, and I don't think an tire would have fared much better. I will likely buy again as a I really like the feel, speed, and ride quality of these tires, and they are tough to pass up at PBK prices. A no-brainer if your usual routes are clean roads.

4A great training tire. This tire provides a race tire like feel but at considerably cheaper price than the GP4000. They're comfortable, fast, and great in the turns.
Report this reviewVery good value for money
5I do like the tyre, it is a narrow fit and fast tyre.

Switched to these after deciding I didn't want to keep riding GP4000S as my daily commuter tyre.
I covered only 2000km and while they are as comfortable, responsive and roll as well as Continental's other products, they are prone to cutting up.
Punctures are a fact of life when you ride a bike, and while little can compare to a Gator Hardshell for puncture resistance, I've actually found these less resistant than even the GP4000S, which is a race dedicated tyre?
Maybe it's just a bit of bad luck, but I've found myself patching and changing tubes more often than usual since switching to them. They also seem to wear more quickly than GPs and Hardshells, too. Have since opted for a set of Grand Prix 24s which seem to be a much nicer tyre to ride and much more resistant to road detritus.
not bad
3I have these on my Bianchi, however have had the one puncture, but can't blame the tyre as the nail went straight in.

4good tires ive started out on these and put alot of ruff rocky roads on them no problems so far!!! knock on wood.
Report this reviewGood tire - nice ride, nice price
4These came on the new bike I purchased last March and I liked them well enough that I went looking to purchase them again and found PBK as a result. Nice weight and ride. After 2000 miles the only flats I had were pinch flats. The sidewalls are soft so you do need to keep them fully inflated to avoid bottoming out the tire on potholes, etc. After 2K I changed the back before a 5-day tour, but the tire was still not worn out.
