Lordgun for tires

they seem to have too good to be true prices on Conti 5000. is that cuz we've been bad mouthing the tires and no one is buying them? is that cuz there are issues with Lordgun?

I just bought a pair of the 5000 TLs two weeks ago from Lordgun. It’s legit and the tires were delivered here in the states in less than a week. Would recommend!

I find it difficult to believe smart Continental tire engineers and scientists would go backwards.
I am inclined to believe that these new bicycle tires are probably very good with solid performance.

My mail is that they sacrificed in grip and handling while going for improved RR.
