Continental Tires

typical time on GP5K 28mm is 45mins with a dead shortest time of 32mins with a strong tailwind. Both bikes set up to have nearly identical geo relationship between saddle, primary grip area, and bottom bracket and thus identical posture.

I notice it everywhere in my riding- turns, takeoffs, climbs, I *definitely notice it* on multi hour rides… and I’m no pro.

Pros: notice it everywhere

Nexen Tires

Either of those are good, the Yokohama is an excellent tire. Honestly though, I am a huge proponent of Nexen tires, and they have arguably the best warranty in the industry. Either the N5000 Platinum or N'Priz AH8 would be a solid choice here. I sent two kids to college in the Dakota on N5000 series tires, hundreds of miles away, neither one ever had a complaint or issue with their tires.

Pros: excellent tire, best warranty

I went from Kenda to Conti GP 5000s and it felt like I got a new bike. And my speed increased by several mph. You just can't get upgrades like that with any other component

Pros: speed increased

When I switched to Conti GP4000sii, those were 12.2 watts per tire. Total of 24.4 watts.

The difference between them obviously 40 watts (depending on conditions). Yeah, that is a big deal. And you can feel it. One is like pedaling through mud in comparison to the other floating over the road.

Pros: big deal, you feel it

Look into the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4. Great tire and better tread wear.

Pros: great tire
Cons: better tread wear

Great bit too soft and if you spirited drive these will be gone in a year with ropes showing. I swapped to harder compounds

Pros: great performance
Cons: too soft, wear quickly
