After 14 years of service, Continental have decided the classic Grand Prix 4000 was in need of an update. Enter the all-new Continental Grand Prix 5000. Lighter, faster with improved comfort and puncture protection, the Grand Prix 5000 resets the benchmark.Re-designed BlackChili Compound makes for a tyre that is 10g lighter and has 12% better rolling resistanceVectran Protection improves puncture protection by 20% over the GP 4000 Active Comfort technology provides a smoother, more comfortable rideLazer Grip tread pattern improves corning grip and controlIncredibly light with weight, starting from just 205g!Folding bead2 x 700 x 25c TyresThe Grand Prix 5000 has been designed from the outset to improve on the most important areas of tyre design; grip, rolling resistance, speed and comfort. Continental re-designed their BlackChili compound to improve grip, rolling resistance and durability. The result is a tyre that has 12% better rolling resistance compared to the already fast GP 4000 and is also 10g lighter. Further improving grip levels and control is the new Lazer Grip tread pattern that improves corning grip and control in all conditions, giving the rider a tyre that they can have the confidence in to push to the limit. While the Grand Prix 5000 thrives in a racing environment, Continental has not forgotten about everyday usability. With an improved Vectran puncture protection layer, the Grand Prix 5000 has 20% better puncture resistance than the GP 4000. Most of us love to log big miles and thanks to the Active Comfort technology in the Grand Prix 5000, this is a tyre that won't rattle your fillings loose out on the open road. This is a tyre that is happy being along rough roads all day long while proving excellent comfort. Fast, tough and reliable, the Continental Grand Prix 5000 takes everything that make the GP 4000 great and turns it up a notch. Road cycling just got a new benchmark tyre by which all others are judged.

Thanks to its DuraSkin anti-tear fabric, the Grand Prix 4 Season holds up under extreme conditions. In the Paris Roubaix race, the Hell of the North, cyclists equipped with DuraSkin enhanced tyres have the fewest tyre related problems during the race. Incorporating Conti's special wear resistant carbon compound, the tyre is characterised by very good mileage performance as well as excellent adhesion on wet roads and at low temperatures. Vectran™ Breaker Vectran is a synthetically manufactured high-tech fibre from a natural model. Like spider silk, Vectran is a liquid-crystalline polymer (LCP). Vectran is spun from melted liquid polymer Vectra and processed further to a multi-strand thread. Spider silk, like Vectran, has an enormous tear resistance at a very low weight – exactly the right properties to process into a premium Continental bike tyre as a puncture protection insert. A Vectran Breaker is lighter, more flexible and protects more effectively against cuts than the comparable nylon breaker. Vectran Breaker does not adversely affect the rolling resistance. DuraSkin Tyres with DuraSkin sidewall protection have to be able to roll with the punches. They are used under the harshest conditions. The high-quality polyamide fabric protects the tyre casing against the worst conditions. These tyres stand out thanks to their brown sidewalls

BlackChili Compound Continental refine newly developed synthetic rubbers with natural rubber with the proven high-performance tread compound. They use these rubbers with special nanometric carbon soot particles, which are optimized in shape and surface properties for best uses for the intended tyre. BlackChili Compound reaches an unprecedented of performance. Tyres with BlackChili Compound reach an unprecedented level of performance. Compared to the previous best Activated Silica Compound, BlackChili tyres have 26% less rolling resistance, a 30 % higher friction value (grip) and a 5 % increase in mileage.
PolyX Breaker Technology With their PolyX Breaker, Continental bring PKW know-how to the bike tyre arena – Polyester has been used successfully for years in car tyres and been tried and tested many times. The extremely resistant polyester fibre is woven tightly crosswire making a very high fabric density which not only makes the Breaker more resistant to foreign objects but is also resistant to punctures. The rolling resistance is not affected either by the PolyX Breaker.

TPS TyrePositioning System The narrower front tyre (22mm) provides reduced wind resistance and better handling. An adhesion-optimised tread mixture supplies the necessary grip, especially for wet cornering. The wider rear tyre (24mm) offers better traction thanks to a larger contact area and at the same time more comfort. Thanks to the fast-rolling, optimised tread mixture and larger contact area on the rear tyre, wear is reduced. The result is a pioneering front and rear tyre system for road racing – to be found in Conti’s GP Attack and Force tyres/tubs.

Most road bikes nowadays come fitted, as standard, with 700c wheels (including inner tubes and tyres) and not 650c. A 650c inner tube or tyre WILL NOT fit a 700c wheel. Please read the 650c Wheel Sizing guide explaining the difference between 650c and 700c wheels. Based on ETRTO (European Tyre and Rim Technical Organisation) dimensions, 650c wheels are smaller than 700c wheels by about eight percent. Please, when on this page make sure you are buying the correct tyre size for you wheel. Check the sizing on your tyre before purchasing from this page. Tyre sizes tend to be printed on the sidewalls so please check before making a purchase.
