LOVE these tires, certainly for the price. The rolling resistance is NOTICEBLY lower than the hybrid tires that were on my wife's bike. They were a good name brand hybrid tire but still a great improvement going to these Ultra Sports. I timed her on a 1.5 mile loop back to back and saw a 19 percent reduction in time. If you are not interested in speed, this translates into easier pedaling for casual rides or longer rides before becoming fatigued, or more miles out of a charge on an electric bike.She was still able to ride on packed gravel and hard clay but it was less comfortable than the hybrid tires. As we age,

These are great tires for the money. Good grip, good durability. I have about 1000 miles on mine so far and no flats at all. Although, to be fair, flats are often more about how inflated your tires are and how careful you are. But, I have not had any issues with these.I can tackle descents as fast as I feel comfortable without worrying about the tires. I've even taken them on short gravel sections without any issues.My only complaint is that these are incredibly hard to mount. The tolerances are super tight, so you will have to really work on your finger/hand strength to get these on. I pinched two tubes installing these when I got so frustrated that I broke out my tire lever for install.

Always looking for value, and seeing as reviews on almost every tire is mixed, I took a chance on these Ultra Sport tires. Great choice. Tread pattern is more smooth than not and the rubber compound seems very "sticky" which is what I was looking for. We ride on alot of roads that are chipset and these handle it well. In the wet they seem to hold the road well and the rolling resistance seems as good as the more expensive tires they replaced. I will say they do ride a bit harder than more expensive tires so I had to dial down the psi a bit. And bonus: they would be perfect for the trainer over the winter as the tread pattern is smooth.

I ride in Brooklyn NYC about 20 miles a day so my tires see a lot of different surfaces and abuses. I ordered the 25's in blue and green and have been super happy with them. I know some people have commented these are for E Bikes only, but they work great in an urban environment on a normal bike as well. So far I have not seen any abnormal wear and they provide solid grip. I have not noticed any real rolling resistance issues due to them being soft, but then again I've only ridden them in cold weather.Also love the colored stripes on the side, really adds some cosmetic enhancement to your ride. For the price this is a great tire.

I have not ride my bike with this set but I have high expectations. I had the ultra sport II and I rode over 1k miles on it and just had 1 puncture. Given that this is the Ultra Sport III I am expecting similar or better results. I love the Ultra Sport because they are cheap and have a long longevity. I upgraded to 25c size instead of 23s. I do hope it helps me a little more especially in hills.I will update this review as I start riding on them. But for now I will give it 5 star. They came in time, fit perfectly on my tires, and they are an upgrade from Ultras II.

These tires are very good for the price. I own Gatorskins (both tubular and clinchers) as well as the older Ultra Sport Clinchers. I’ve also used Zipp Tangente folding clinchers that are about the same price as these. These are built very well, thick, tough, and roll nicely too. Note that these are wire bead so they are a little bit tougher to install and aren’t the lightest tires out there. If you’re looking for a cheap but high quality training or commuter tire this is an excellent choice.

Recently purchased a set of these CONTINENTAL road bike tires. I am very satisfied with the overall performance these tires have given thus far. Smoother,faster ride. Very comfortable feeling especially when I ride through rugged terrain which I do try to avoid at all times. Havent put high mileage on these yet but working on that and will update once I do that to see how well they hold up. All in all I highly recommend these tires for a great deal for the price.

Conti tires have been a staple in bike shops for a very long time. Theres a reason for that. They make functional good quality products even in there more inexpensive tire lines. These perform as good as some higher end tires I've owned and as a daily rider on public streets the durability is something im happy with. Price for performance is fantastic on this model.

For quite a few years I have been using these tires, very good quality, good grip and good road holding my last Ultra Sport II I have driven 6000 km and no punctures and I have just ordered the Ultra Sport III. The price is correct and the choice of several colors. Fairly fast delivery and the shipping price is correct. I recommend this site to you.

A bit unhappy with the type of packaging the product came in. Was folded up twice in a cramped little bag... Haven't installed them just yet but really hoping the folding did not compromise the integrity of the tires or the wires inside the rubber.Other than the packaging happy with the quality of the tire.

Very much satisfied!!First, I chose this tire for price, but I love how it performs. Rubber is soft and sticky, and I feel noticable change in traction while riding. I have not tried much higher priced tires yet for comparison, but I'd definitely purchase them again.

I switched from Continental 5000 to Ultra Sport tires earlier this year. I got about 5000 miles wear on the 5000’s and 4000 miles on the Ultra Sports. With a 3X price difference, it was an easy decision to once again go with the Ultra Sport tires.

Perfect, it seems to be of quality, I'm not using it yet. There is only one repair to do, the stipulated day for delivery does not correspond to the truth, it takes at least a week more to receive the product. Other than that, it is advisable.

Tires went on quick and easy. Transitioned from a 32c to a 25c and it was seamless. Grip is great super sticky, which will probably give me more resistance but still not enough to be a factor. For a budget tire you cant go wrong

Solid performance and value so far... I have about 100 miles on them and seem to be holding up very well. I really like that there is a variety of color choices. Aesthetically pleasing and durable, they fit the rim perfectly.
