CONTINENTAL GP4000S II
£49.95
Weight 220g (25mm) Inflated width 25mm The benchmark all-round performance tyre and the one we use for our wheel testing, Continental’s GP4000S II is a superbly consistent performer that doesn’t do anything brilliantly but does everything really well. Presuming you’re not running extra wide or narrow rims, sizing is on the money so you don’t need to worry about clearances. Ride feel is smooth and stable through a wide pressure range. The single Black Chili compound is a great balance of reliable grip in all weathers and temperatures, with decent rolling speed on the road or in the lab. Weight is similarly mid pack and puncture and cut resistance is better than most in practice.
