The Grand Prix 4000S II boasts global appeal as the best all round race bike tyre on the market. Not only is it fast and super grippy, thanks to its state of the art BlackChili rubber compound, but it is also tough with a healthy tread layer and of course Continental's Vectran anti puncture breaker layer underneath. So for reliability, longevity and all out performance for your race machine, the GP 4000S II is the only choice.

How are these figures possible? The carbon filler particles within the rubber compound are reduced to 1/10th of the size of standard carbon particles. This creates a closer knit with the particles having more points of contact with each other, thus forming a tighter bond, (increasing mileage performance) and also with the road (increasing grip). Also the way in which the particles interact with each other has a dramatic effect on reducing rolling resistance. Black Chili is used by several ProTour and Continental teams as shown opposite.

The all new Vectran breaker belt, developed and patented by Continental, surpasses even the famous puncture resistance of the former leader in this category, the GP3000. The extremely strong Vectran fabrics are more flexible and lighter than all other puncture protection materials. Vectran offers more resistance to cuts than Aramid, is five times as strong as steel and features less weight than a nylon double breaker. It also maintains strength in the wet.

Key Features:

  • Advanced BlackChili compound for low rolling resistance, high mileage and maximum wet weather grip
  • A proven tyre with a facelift, new colours, new design, tried and tested technology
  • New sizes in 23-571, 20-622 and for poor conditions, 28-622
  • Vectran breaker for unsurpassed puncture protection
  • Available colours (23mm): black, yellow, red, orange, blue, green, silver, transparent

Please Note: OE stands for ‘Original Equipment’ – it’s a brand new genuine item that may not come with retail packaging. eg a clear plastic bag instead of branded packaging.

Conti's GP4000S II does it again

I have long lost count of how many Conti's GP4000S tyres I have been through over many years. They do continue to deliver to meet my endurance-type riding (over 16,500km in 2015, so 2-3 pairs of tyres) so naturally am sensitivity to the performance I get, including traction, mileage, punctures, etc. Highly recommended.

Durable!!!

Have been using these tyres both for training & racing for a few years now and find them extremely durable. Whilst you can't avoid cuts & nicks in the tyres, the anti puncture breaker works a treat and is yet to let me down. Highly recommended.

Great Tyre, Great Price

There's a reason why just about every serious road bike you see parked up at your local good coffee spot is wearing GP4000s. When PBK has them at ~50% off their normal (never mind what you might pay at a bricks-and-mortar store) you would be insane to consider something lesser.

Grand Prix 4000S

Excellent tire! Good ride and long wearing at a reasonable price.

Not good enough

The order took some 6 weeks to arrive. Not good enough for me when I was told after ordering it was out of stock. Communication with PBK unsatisfactory

Super Roller

This tyre was purchased to replace a worn out front tyre and get a matched set of Continental GP4000S2 on my bike. The rear tyre is a 28mm GP4000S2 so I decided a 23mm tyre would be fine for my requirements on the front. From previous experience I find the puncture resistance very good and the wear rates are excellent even when used for high load work such as time trials or even turbo trainer. These tyres tend to be in short supply during the summer months so during the winter was a good time to purchase along with the excellent deals PBK offer. The tyre does make my bike roll with a lot less effort and will continue the roll for some distance without power. Now you might think a tyre which rolls well has reduced grip but even during this spell of bad weather where the roads are wet and muddy the tyre has plenty of grip even at higher speeds. Just to prove a point I use a newton+ power meter and looking at the data , you can see a reduction in Rolling Resistance. So in my view these tyres are well worth the money, not only for life span, performance, grip, reduced rolling resistance, and puncture resistance. This tyre is a clincher, and I would buy again, even if they cost more.....you get what you pay for...

Grand Prix 4000s11

Quite simply the only tyre for your road bike. Smooth rolling, sticky and outstanding puncture protection at such low weight. 5 stars all the way

Best Wearing Tires

I've been using various flavors of the GP for about 25 years now, and these are the best yet. Great grip, very high durability, and excellent mileage. There is simply not a better clincher tire available.

good tires

Great tires for the price....little screw up with how you input address but came in a timely fashion

Ready any time

Not a fair review at this time. I purchased these to replace the existing tires on my bike which have about 5800 miles on them. They are showing some extreme wear, but I plan to ride them until I can't anymore. I'm stubborn and cheap! That being said, I can't find this kind of price in the states. Have to wait a little on shipping, but it works well so far. This will be my second set of Conti, and I'm looking forward to putting them on. Hopefully in the spring! Existing set still ride good for the condition they are in.
