Improving on the GP4000S II, one of the best road bike tyres ever produced was a tall enough ask, but how do you improve upon the wildly successful Continental GP5000? You give it a transparent sidewall, that’s how. Regardless of the colour of the sidewall, this tyre is widely considered to be one of the best all-round road tyres ever made. Once again, Continental have demonstrated their commitment to continuous innovation, and delivered a lighter, faster tyre with more grip and puncture protection than previous attempts.

Compounding Spice

The sidewall might be transparent but that doesn’t mean this version is missing any of the trademark technology you’d expect from Continental. Like the regular version, this transparent tyre features the tyre maker’s famed Black Chili rubber compound. The transparent Grand Prix 5000 is also 10 grams lighter than previous versions in a 25 mm width, boasts a 12% reduction in rolling resistance, and a 20% increase in durability.

The brand’s proprietary Laser Grip Technology has been used to create a micro tread pattern which expands over the shoulder of the tyre. In turn, this increases the GP5000’s all-weather grip, and your confidence when railing technical corners.

Wider, Smoother

It’s becoming the norm for tyre and wheel makers to push the width of the optimal size of a tyre. Continental is no exception and is fully onboard with the view that a comfortable tyre is a fast tyre. To that end, the GP5000 transparent is available in up to 32 mm in width. It is also manufactured with Active Comfort Technology which helps smooth out the jolts and shocks of rough roads.

Lightweight, tear-resistant Vectran fibres line the GP5000, which affords better protection than previous versions and helps to set a new standard for puncture protection in road-race ready tyres.

So, whether you’re training on Alpine peaks or racing in a spring downpour, with these tyres you can be fully confident that your tyres will out-perform the competition in every aspect, in every condition. In the transparent sidewall option, they’ll look awesome too.
