Now even lighter, faster and with reinforced sidewalls, the new standard in road tubeless-ready technology is here - and now compatible with hookless rims. This latest variant of the legendary GP5000 road tyre rolls 20% faster and is 28% stronger in the sidewall, while weighing 50g less than its predecessor.

Description

With the previous model already significantly improved compared to the old GP4000 S II model (17% in rolling resistance, 25% in puncture resistance), the GP5000S TR raises the bar in the all-around road tyre market to previously unseen levels! In the autumn of 2021, the GP5000S TR was the winning tyre at the men's Paris-Roubaix and World Time Trial Championships, demonstrating its versatility across these two very different races with their distinct equipment demands. The GP5000S TR covers them all!!

Features

  • Tubeless Tech: The patented carcass construction is robust and impervious to foreign objects. The tyre can be fitted tubeless or with an inner tube.
  • Black Chili Compound: Nanotechnology is used to produce the black carbon particles that reinforce the rubber compound. Continental refine special synthetic rubbers with natural rubber to create high-performance tread mixtures.
  • Lazer Grip: Feel at one with the road. The laser-micro profile structure extends over the tyre’s shoulder and provides outstanding cornering.
  • Vectran™: The benchmark in puncture protection, Vectran™ is a synthetically manufactured high-tech fibre from a natural model. Like spider silk, Vectran™ is a liquid-crystalline polymer (LCP). It's spun from the melted liquid polymer Vectra and further processed into a multi-strand thread. Thanks to its spider silk-like structure, Vectran™ offers enormous tear resistance at a very low weight: Exactly the right ingredients for a highly competitive race tyre with unbeatable puncture protection. A Vectran Breaker is lighter, more flexible, and protects more effectively against cuts than a comparable nylon breaker, without adversely impacting rolling resistance.
