They work well.Right size came in, was a bit worried, but only because of time wasted as Amazon always takes care of small mistakes like that.Tires look and feel quality, I prefer the tread on these for commuter use. They handle well when inflated to the max PSI, as they are still a soft and comfortable ride.These are the 32mm wide and I am preferring them over slimmer ones do to the filled road cracks I commute on. First tires on new bike so can't say that speed I feel with these are just these or an improvement coming from a different bike, but I felt they were fast enough for me, and have not hit top speed (derailer needs adjustments on my bike) yet.over all worth the ~22ish I have paid for them.

The tires took many weeks to arrive, but did arrive the last day of the estimate. They ended up costing twice what I hoped, but I figured they would be worth it.The tires appear to be very nice, high quality. Unfortunately, as a non-bike old guy, I had measured the rim diameter and ordered 26" sized tires. When they arrived they are way-too-small ! I was told by a real bike-person that road-bike tires are larger than their measured diameter. I found a bike type that can use them.Expensive lesson.....get some expertise ! Snowed the day they arrived.

I was getting flats 2-3 times a month, from thorns in AZ, until I bought these tires for my 24" mountain bike. The tires in combination with Mr. Tuffy tire liner (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00113FVV8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1) completely eliminated the flats riding the same terrain and well over 1000 miles.I recently purchased a new 26" bike and ordered these tires and the liner but before the tires arrived I took the bike out for the first time and sure enough, got a flat a half mile from home.

I have now logged about 2500 miles on this tire, commuting to work and riding around town. I take it on gravel and bumpy roads and have not had a flat. There is some normal tread wear but plenty left so far. I am willing to ride a stiffer tire like this if I don't have to fix a flat every month. My bike is a 30lb machine, and heavier with my work pannier. I run a 37mm on the back and 32mm on the front. Pressure is between 35 and 50psi. Any lower and the tire feels squishy around corners. I don't like the hard feel above 50psi.

Mounted these (700x32) on Mavic Askiums wheels on Kono Sutra touring bike; ridden 2,200 miles with no issues, no flats. I laugh at glass and thorns! When new, these are a real task to mount, the steel belt in the sidewall is tough. My only complain is the ride is very uncomfortable on bad roads, cracked concrete, you feel every seam, (running at 75-80 PSI) and the 32s are not really wide enough for sandy trails, especially when wet. Now I am changing wheels and moving up to the 38s, we'll see how it changes

I am new to cycling, retired and needed to start getting exercise.. bought a Trek DS-3... I use it mainly on street but some smooth gravel and dirt trails as well... original tires were something between mtn bike and road tires.. seemed to have a lot of rolling resistance on the street. I decided to try this Continental tire and it is night and day. So much faster, and so smooth plus they have addition puncture resistance, no flats so far... at this price I could not be more pleased

I have an old Motive mountain bike. I hardly go off road, so I bought this tire because I was looking for a smoother ride. I have had this tire since August, looks pretty good still, hardly any wear can be detected. It still has the little nubs on it. I am happy with this tire, the ride is very smooth, it's durable and I haven't had any flats. I read the info on the webpage, it says this tire can be used off road.If you ride most of the time on the street, this tire is perfect.

I have these tires on my Schwinn GTX 2.0 700c bike. I called Schwinn to make sure they would fit and they do but they are a tight fit. I notice that my bike is faster with them than 32s or 37s but you have to accept a harder ride which is OK with me. I have used Continental tires for a long time and am pleased with how they ride and last! I use Continental Tour 28 slim tube 700 x 28 - 32C which are shrader valve which fit my rims.

Purchased these tires because I was looking for a more aggressive and durable tire for my trip on the gap and c&o canal trails. And for 350 miles they did not disappoint. Terrain varies from pavement to limestone to dirt and mud. I rode over sticks and rocks and after some severe weather many small branches with ease. They also rode well around the city streets of d.c. at the end of the trip. I am extremely happy with my purchase

I bought from Chile, it took 3 weeks to arrive without any problem. I have been using them for 1 week and they were perfect I went from 700x25 to these 700x32, on my home-work routes I did not lose speed and I gained comfort since the streets are with many cracks and holes, in addition to today among so many protests and barricades in my country I have not punctured the wheel again. Excellent product at a good price.

Be warned, like many have mentioned in other reviews, these tires are thinner than the size you choose. I ordered 700x28 and compared to the tires they were replacing (same size 700x28) on my road bike, they were noticeably thinner. Other than that the tires are great! Despite the size difference I slapped them on my bike and I love them! They are the perfect combination of durability and speed for my road bike.

It might be I've narrow rims but the tire is 25mm wide, says 28 on the tire, a friend with an other brand 28mm is 28mm wide. Very soft compound rubber will feel loose after a slick but seems to hold the road OK, got to use in the winter snow/slush and look like will work well. I did find it was a very tight fit, quite difficult to get into the rim, and will be not easy to remove if you had a puncture

I have a Schwinn Trailway Men's Aluminium Hybrid Bike - Dark Grey, 700c and I would like a more comfortable ride as I ride in a rural area where the roads have cracks and bumps. Currently I have 700 x 38C Kenda tires. I'm thinking that if I go to a wider tire, the ride will be a little more comfortable. Will this tire in a 42C fit on my bike and will that improve the comfort of the ride?

A good and elegant tire is very beautiful once put on the bike I have put it on a gravel bike and the truth is that it cushions a lot and it is very comfortable also to say that for now I have only tried it on bumpy roads and poorly paved roads I have not even put it in forest tracks and roads but it gives me a very good impression and I think it will be comfortable also in those areas

Hello I do not know much about bicycle tyres so this the reason why I am asking this question. I am looking for a wider and more versatile tire Is it possible to mount the Continental ride tour 700 x 47 C reflecting black? My bike wheels size is 622x 16C and the tyres I have got now are 700-28C. . I wonder if I will fit those tyres above to my wheels ? Could you advise please ?
