Continental Gatorskin - Road Bike Tire | Tough Urban & Touring Tire for Daily Riding - PolyX Breaker, Duraskin, 2 Pack

I love these. I've ridden over 1400 miles with them so far and have only have 2 punctures (a giant industrial staple and shattered glass) and one snake bite from a huge rock, none of which I blame on the tyres. I haven't noticed any rolling resistance compared to other tyres, but I've never used low rolling resistance tyres. They look sleek and professional. Installation was a bit of a struggle at first, but they're road bike tyres, so that's typical. Definitely my go-to for tyres.

I put on about 1500 miles per summer riding my bike. I move the rear tire to the front after the two years of use.Essentially, I get about 6000 miles out of my tires. They are (to me) the best tire. I have tested others and didn't get the life or durability I get with these.

Tires have a nice ride quality.

While these are not the easiest tires to mount they are well worth is for resistance to puncture and a secure ride even on damp pavement. This is my second pair for my road bike.

Product arrived a day early! Also Gatorskins are great quality, these are the only tires I feel safe to ride on doing 30-60mph's down hill!

For what Continental Gatorskins are, they are wonderful, and I always equip my bicycles (ranging from 80s roadies to modern ones) with them.Gatorskins are, for their price, the best at puncture resistance. While I absolutely have had flats (and even total wheel destruction-- Philly has terrible roads) with them, the rate at which I've been stopped during rides with these tires has been miniscule when compared to other tires I've had. Glass, metal grit, and other common hazards simply aren't a significant problem when one is riding with Gatorskins. Nails and similar industrial objects intended to puncture are, however.Traction is poor, but only in wet conditions. While I have wiped out riding on Gatorskins in the rain, I have never done so in dry weather. My advice for these is to stick with sunny day riding or have to sets of tires or wheels.One's speed riding with these things will never be extremely high, but much slower tires are out there. Keep your pressures high and you'll be happy.Gatorskins are expensive, but not astronomically so. They're absolutely wonderful for the cost.These folding tires are easy to install and remove. I've never had a serious problem mounting them, but by all means keep irons around.I'll summarize with this: I've been using them for ages, and I plan on continuing to do so.

Fits great, looks great, rides great!

I purchased these back in 2021 because I ride on the road quite a bit and prior to purchasing them, getting flats was a bit too often for me. So in the 4 plus years I’ve had them on the bike, I had one flat, and that was due to a nail going through the sidewall of the tire. They offer excellent traction during the rain, they are extremely puncture resistant which is the one feature I was looking for. I highly recommend them. You will spend a lot less time repairing flats.

I received the items as per my expectation.

Muy buenas llantas, vienen dos unidades nuevas en perfecto estado, llegó antes del tiempo estimado.

Por ahora muy bien. Hay que ver que tal duran. El precio no hay igual

Unas llantas de excelente calidas

Son muy buenos, pero se empiezan a degradadar muy pronto, se le empieza a desilar, y luego se agrietan
