Continental Reprises the Cream Sidewall for GP 5000 Range of Tires

To celebrate the 2021 Tour de France, Continental reprised the classic look of the cream sidewall for its Grand Prix 5000 road tire.

However, as a result of the ongoing customer demand for the distinctive cream wall, Continental has decided to making it a permanent feature in its Grand Prix 5000 lineup.

“Permanently adding the cream colored sidewalk to our Grand Prix 5000 line gives the range more aesthetic choices for road riders and racers wanting to use the industry benchmark for all round performance, the Grand Prix 5000 road tire, ” says Continental. 

The full range of colors all benefit from the same best-in-field features as the core Grand Prix 5000 tire model: Active Comfort Technology designed to reduce vibration and for the smoothest possible ride, Vectran Breaker for high-class puncture protection, LazerGrip for outstanding cornering.
