Ultra Sport III - 700x25

منتج جميل وممتاز

See, I've been a professional cyclist for more than 9 years now, So I used to fix my bike by myself with my own tools, when I decided to get these tires, I read almost all the reviews and most of them complained about the tire size and how they struggled to fix it in their rims, and I thought maybe I will not face the same issue because I'm expert :) The other part of the story of course you guessed it already ... I struggled like all of them to fix it up to lose one of my levers and now I thinking again about the lever quality that I should have. However, I bought a pair to keep as a spare because I liked the quality so much, but my advice for you, if you are a beginner and like to get out for a long distance, keep away from this one because the worst case scenario for you it will be if one of these tyers get flat on the way !!!

The tire fit and good to use on roadbike, the grip is very good at all condition of road.

Muy buen producto y arribaron un día antes , lo recomiendo a pesar de que es la linea básica de intercontinental en bicicletas pero tiene buen valor agregado , Las he usado en pavimento mojado y tiene buen agarre , espero comprar otro par para tenerlas de repuesto.

All good!

I am very pleased with these Conti’s. High standards and quality craftsmanship that one would expect from Continental does not disappoint here. Well packaged, rapid delivery and flawless performance. I have been winter riding on these now for 6 weeks without issue or event.

Bought a pair of these tires to replace the very old ones. Immediately feel the difference which is more comfortable and better grip, it feels confident even on rough road and gravel! One thing that I noticed is that although it’s 25mm but actual measurement is about 23mm for both tires. Maybe that’s the way it is?

This seems like a good light tire; it seemed noticeably faster on a 40 mile ride yesterday. I'm a casual rec rider with a flatbar road bike and was using heavier 28mm tires for my first olympic distance aquabike (20 mile ride after a 1500 meter swim) last fall. I was hoping to go a little faster/lighter on my upcoming second one in May, without putting too much money into it, and was happy with them on my first ride. I'm glad I read the other reviews; the tires are tight enough that I might have wondered if I had somehow ordered the wrong size!!! If you are having trouble getting them on, don't pull out the screwdriver like the one guy said! If you've only changed 4 or 5 tires in your life and aren't particularly strong, they are tight enough that I wouldn't be shocked if you needed take them to the local bike store for help. At the same time, I'm over 60 and actually managed to get the second one on using just my hands. But I have good technique. (Not sure who showed me this trick but sit and hold the wheel flat in your lap, with the first easy part near your belly and then work away from you, so that -- for that last seemingly impossible bit -- you can extend your arms, curl your fingers over the tire and rim, and roll the last little bit of tire over the rim with the heels of both hands at once. Once you get the hang of it, you'll never do it another way, although tire irons are still sometimes needed. If you do need tire irons -- I did for the first one -- it is conceivable that you'd snap a very thin light one.) It seemed to me that -- probably since the tire came folded up in a bo -- the bead stretched out a tiny bit with time, making it easier to get on if you are patient. More thinking, less muscle. Stretch the tire 95% of the way on --- to that point where the bead is stretched incredibly tight and you think there is "no way" it will go--- and leave it that way for a minute or two, stretched very tight. This seemed to loosen up a bit. During that pause, I was considering taking it off, using spit on the rim of the wheel and the tire edge, to see if that would allow the sticky rubber to slip over the edge of the rim more easily, without tearing the rubber a little. But it turned out that that pause to consider that idea seemed to help the tire stretch out a tiny little and I got it on, first time using a tire iron to help, the second tire using bare hands. It's certainly might be the morst most difficult tire that I've ever put on -- or a close tie with one or two others. It was good to know from other reviews that others had trouble getting them on; this let me know that I wasn't crazy, and that it would eventually go on. Normally I can change a tire in a minute or two, and this one definitely took at least another minute or two.
