They have the TLR in stock too but quite a bit more expensive.

Lord Gun is a PITA, he is actually based in Italy with a .co.uk web address and slashes every price he can, most of his product is a lower spec OE product with a nice label on it.

I've bought a few things from Lordgun (and yes, italy) - no issues.

Including SMP saddles, which are quite difficult to fake.

I'd try the GP5000 but like others, I have a pile of GP4000 and they last forever (10,000 miles, 5000 on the front then rotating to the back for another 5000.)

What About Cicli Mattio?

They have been pretty decent to me. About the same price, per tire.

Hope the next will be the Tubular Version.

Ok.... got a hold of a set of the GP5000 in 25mm. All I can say is WOW!!!

This tire really feels comfy and nice. In my opinion a huge improvement over the 4000. Now, too early to tell about durability and and such as I have only had them for a week or so.

But so far they have been super comfortable to ride on and I have (inadvertently) ridden over glass a couple of times.... no flats and no cuts so far. Will continue to report later...
