Continental Grand Prix 5000 S TR 700x25 Tyre Black

A new era has arrived, now also Tubeless Ready

The best all-round tyre in its class takes performance to a new level. Ride faster, with greater comfort and better puncture protection. Built to perform at their best!

After 14 years and numerous special editions, the popular GP 4000 has been updated, giving rise to the GP 5000.
The GP 4000 S II is universally recognised as the class leader, a tyre with excellent performance and outstanding reliability. Now, 14 years after the first GP 4000 was introduced, the legendary Continental has been completely redesigned and improved in every area, including the latest Tubeless version.

The GP 5000 S TR is similar to the standard version but adds an airtight layer and a profiled sidewall (with softer rubber for easier fitting), despite a more robust 220 TPI casing. Continental states that the new versions will offer the perfect balance between safety and ease of fitting. The Black Chili compound patented by Continental has been updated with a new formula and laser-etched tread to offer further improved cornering grip. Continental also claims a more aerodynamic tyre surface with less turbulence.

Technologies

Tubeless Ready

Tubeless Ready tyres can be used with an inner tube or without one, using sealant. The revolutionary flexible Tubeless Ready bead allows quick and easy tubeless tyre fitting. All Continental tyres in ProTection and Performance versions feature Tubeless Ready technology (RTR).

BlackChili

A unique Continental compound, made only in Germany, that revolutionises bicycle tyres! BlackChili Compound takes the balance between increased grip and rolling resistance to the highest level. Numerous test wins confirm the benefits that can be measured and recorded in the laboratory and in the field. Next-generation polymers, carbon particles developed using nanotechnology and fillers ensure truly unique performance. From the MTB downhill tyre to the time trial bike tyre, the ultimate in each area of use! BlackChili Compound improves rolling resistance by 26% while offering approximately 30% more grip than activated silica compounds. Tyres made with BlackChili Compound also offer higher mileage and, unlike multiple compounds, consistent performance from the first kilometre to the last.

Active Comfort

A revolutionary approach to cycling. Active Comfort technology is integrated into the rubber and absorbs vibrations and irregularities in the road you are riding on.

Lazer Grip

Lazer Grip makes you one with the road. The micro-lasered tread structure extends beyond the tyre's shoulder and offers unrivalled cornering ability.

Founded in Hanover in 1871, Continental is still based in the German city today. For cyclists, it makes tires and inner tubes for road, gravel, mountain biking and urban riding. Its connection with bicycles goes back to its early days: in 1892, it became the first German company to produce pneumatic bicycle tires.
