Continental Gp 5000 Bicycle Rolling Resistance

Continental grand prix 4 season vs continental grand prix 5000.

Continental gp 5000 bicycle rolling resistance. At an air pressure of 100 psi rolling resistance is excellent at 14 5 watts. At an air pressure of 120 psi rolling resistance is 14 0 watts. Our tests confirm rolling resistance of the gp 5000 is actually even lower with a maximum of 18 less rolling resistance at the highest air pressure of 120 psi 8 3 bars. After 14 years the much loved continental grand prix 4000 has finally been usurped.

You do have to realize that at the same air pressure a bigger tire will provide a less comfortable ride. A bigger road bike tire at least the continental gp 4000 and gp 5000 provides a lower rolling resistance at the same air pressure. This page includes all data collected by our tests including all size measurements and rolling resistance and puncture resistance test results. Even though the rear gp 5000 has slightly more wear rolling resistance of the rear 32 622 gp 5000 has also gone up by 5 9.
