They said they’d never do a road tubeless, but I guess they realized they needed to get with the times: [image] Continental GP 5000 TL goes tubeless, finally! New, modern benchmark road tire? Continental GP 5000 TL finally brings tubeless, plus better grip, anti-puncture, wearing, comfo…

I preordered the 5000’s in TL and waiting for them. I was hoping to have them mounted for a trip to Maui next week but it looks like they won’t ship until later in January. I’ll probably hold off mounting them until the spring then but the bicyclerollingresistance.com findings looks really positiv…

I have the non-TL versions, and am really liking these tires. So far I have 379KM on 25mm, with no problems. They seem to roll faster / corner better than the 400GPsIIs, but that is totally subjective :slight_smile:

I just setup the 5000 TLs on my wheels this morning and am letting the sealant settle in - they were hard to get onto the rim but seated very easily once I got them on there.

[image] Here’s the gp5000 TL in 25c mounted on Bontrager Aeolus Pro 3. 19.5mm internal, 27mm outer. Mounting wasn’t too bad, used a lever on the last bit. Inflated with a floor pump no problem. Might switch to the 28’s instead.

thanks! Looks like I’m going to give the 28c a try once they are in stock.

I understand they are having production issues with the 32mm tubless… UK distributors have moved the delivery date twice based on feedback from a Continental. Now looking at early February delivery, perhaps they launched the full range to early?

I’ve done a few miles on 25C 5000 TLs - very subjective but they feel great
