Experience the evolution of performance with the Continental Grand Prix 5000 S TR tires. Engineered for competitive road cyclists and dedicated enthusiasts seeking peak efficiency and reliability, these tubeless-ready clinchers deliver tangible advantages over their predecessors and rivals.
Why Choose GP5000 S TR?
- Lighter & Faster: Significant weight reduction translates directly to quicker acceleration and effortless climbing, giving you an edge on group rides or solo breakaways.
- Enhanced Durability: Reinforced sidewalls provide superior protection against cuts and abrasions from rough pavement or debris, ensuring longevity for everyday training and intense races.
- Unbeatable Puncture Defense: The revolutionary Vectran Breaker layer – an ultra-strong, lightweight synthetic fiber – acts as an invisible shield against sharp objects, drastically reducing flats so you ride further without interruption.
- Hookless Rim Ready (Up to 73 PSI): Embrace modern wheel technology with confidence. Designed for compatibility with high-pressure hookless rims (check your rim specs!), offering a secure fit and expanded setup options.
- Active Comfort Technology: Feel the difference on long miles. This innovative feature actively absorbs road vibrations and bumps, delivering a remarkably smoother ride that combats fatigue.
- Precision Cornering with Lazer Grip: Attack bends with absolute assurance. The micro-textured shoulder profile maximizes rubber contact during lean angles, providing race-proven grip for high-speed descents and technical corners.
- Optimal Efficiency – BlackChili Compound: Continental’s legendary tread compound strikes the perfect balance between low rolling resistance for speed and exceptional wet/dry traction for safety in variable conditions.
Versatile Performance:
Whether you prefer the benefits of a tubeless setup (sealant compatibility for self-repairing punctures) or the familiarity of an inner tube, the GP5000 S TR carcass is robustly constructed for both methods. Its virtually impervious construction resists damage while maintaining low weight and an attractive aesthetic.
