Gp 4000s ii

This tire is on deep discount online now. Does anyone know of plans to replace it in the Continental lineup?

[tigoat]

I do not know their future plans but why would I care anyway, as all I know is that these are currently my favorite road tires. The best part is that they are still made in Germany. I have just stocked them up with a couple of dozen sets with around $26 a pop.

I bought some of them from Ribble with a discount code. Even without a discount code, they are still fairly cheap. I would stock as many as possible while they last.

Does anyone know how wide a 28mm GP4000S is on 23mm rims (A23, Archetype, TB-14)? I'm aware these run large, the 25s on the wife's road bike plump to about 27.

Thanks

And downright luxurious. A wonderful ride.

Yowza, thanks. That may be too plump for the bike I'd like to put them on.

Those are Belgium+, 25mm rims

I was actually looking at the 31mm on A23s. Bike has room for 30mm width at the chainstays with acceptable clearance.

I'm intrigued as well where you found for $26. Best price I can find them is right around $30. Still a great price on a fantastic tire, but if I can save another $4 a piece....

said $26 is with a discount code. If you don't need them now, subscribe to their email list and wait for them to run a "deal".

[oddsaabs]

DOH! Missed that. Thanks!
