Continental Tire G-Prix 5000 TL 700 x 28c
Already with Paris-Roubaix and World Time Trial wins under its belt, Continental’s GP5000S TR (Tubeless Ready) is an impressive improvement on the renowned original GP5000. It is stronger, lighter and faster than before as well as now offering hookless rim compatibility.
The GP5000S TR still offers fantastic grip thanks to the BlackChili rubber compound and the lasered micro profile structure of the tread surface whilst the flexible Vectran layer provides excellent protection against punctures without spoiling the ride quality or speed. In fact, Continental claims that the tyre is 20% faster rolling than the previous version.
Compatibility with tubes or tubeless and hooked or hookless rims allows the tyre to be used with a huge variety of rims for maximum choice.
