Continental GP 5000 vs Pirelli PZero Velo (How to choose bicycle tires)

Today we are comparing two of the best road bike tires on the market. The Continental gp 5000 and the Pirelli PZero Velo. I believe tire choice is one of the most important and most overlooked aspect of the bicycle and I wanted to shed a little light on the subject!

    I have had thousands of km with both (25 mm clinchers). I prefer the Pirelli P Zero Velo. I feel like they have more grip in wet weather and they are a LOT easier to mount, especially on the side of the road (and that is the main reason Pirelli has won out for me). Durability (lifetime and puncture resistance) is comparable, both good at least where I live.

    Thanks for your GREAT review! I just ordered 2 ea. 700x25 tubeless ones for my Cannondale System six with Knot 64 wheels. I ride daily to work and really rely upon my tires. I'm a big fella (230lbs) and run 120psi (rear) & 100 in the front. I also use "finish line" tire sealant.

    I generally don't write comments, but I must say really loved this video as it's short and sweet ... Also can you let me know which out of the both the tyres in real world is more puncture resistant ?

    5 thousand miles? thats 8 thousand kilometers. wow. thats a lot! I just bought the P zero because the ones that where on my bike when I bought it last summer had just worn out after 3,500km.... Also the P Zero FEEL WAY better....so that's a good investment!

    5K miles on the tires seems like an awfully inflated claim.

    Can you put these clincher tires on tubeless ready rims without sealant?

    As much as I loved the GP4000s tires in the past we have to get honest here: Continental has been *cutting corners* to achieve their tubeless tires! The sidewalls aren't reinforced and their bead isn't hookless compatible. Essentially you're getting a normal tire that works with sealant. Many people on the forums and on Reddit have issues with these tires: damage on the fragile sidewalls runs them inoperable! So *not* a proper tubeless tire!

    Another question is, I would like the fastest rolling tires 'cos what I ride right now is just some training tires with very poor grip in corners. I need performance over anything, low rolling resistance, grip in corners, puncture resistance, looks and durability exactly in that order. I found out the Vittoria Corsa speed tubeless are the fastest available tires to mankind, do I get this or are there other recommended non tubeless clinchers that are put there? Is going tubeless worth it? I weigh between 96 and 100kg, more of a sprinter than but I do climb too. only road use.

    Alright, alright, what you do is get yourself some EPO. You take a syringe full and thump it three times. No more, no less. If you look on your tires there will be these so called "wear indicator" dimples that are actually injection ports. This is where the go juice is inserted. Be sure not to puncture your tube. This is how you achieve the fastest tire in and around mankind. As far as tubeless goes, I love it on a road bike BUT it's not quite where tubeless is on the mtb. To me, on the mtb it is a must. Also, the Vittoria Corsa tires are pretty sweet. I haven't personally ridden them but a few people I know have and they LOVE them

    4S is their "4 seasons" tire. If you were aiming for performance you should've gone with a different model. Research before reviewing.

    most of the info I gave was on the Pzero velo (like the title) not the 4s. I tried to only use the 4s for the b-roll as that's what I had to work with. Thanks for the constructive criticism though!
