Description
Speed, Control, and Power For All Seasons
The Continental Grand Prix 5000 AS TR is the strongest GP5K yet, creating trust in all weather conditions and boosting your protection.
Like all Grand Prix tires, it starts with Conti's unique tread compound, produced only in Germany. The legendary Black Chili compound answers the eternal question of the best balance of grip and rolling resistance. The latest polymers, as well as specially developed carbon black particles and filler materials guarantee unique performance.
A Vectran breaker is lighter, more flexible and effective against cuts than a comparable nylon breaker without effecting rolling resistance. Vectran is spun from liquid crystal-polymer, creating a thermoplastic, multiple-thread, partially-crystalline yarn that is more cut-resistant than aramide and with tensile strength five times higher than that of steel.
The GP More-Thousand
Fusing GP5K speed and tubeless compatibility with a GP4S strength, the AS TR is designed to give you more: more wet grip, more sidewall protection, more mileage, and more visibility.
The micro profile structure of Conti Lazer Grip expands over the tire's shoulder and provides outstanding cornering in dry or wet conditions.
Embedded in the tire construction is new Active Comfort Technology that absorbs vibrations and smooths your ride.
And like Conti's famed commuter tires, the AS TR comes with a Black Reflex sidewall to make sure you can be seen in low light conditions.
Grand Prix Family
The AS TR proves that a tender Grand Prix ride quality can still be tough. But its speedier siblings are still standing by as well. For the same famous quality with extra zip, check out the S TR or the TT TR for even more ludicrous speed. And if you don't need tubeless/hookless compatibility, turn to the original gold standard GP5K.

Reviews
For this winter, I swapped in GP 5000 AS TR (32mm) for the regular GP 5000 (28mm), using butyl tubes. Grippy in the wet, over firm gravel and small rocks, dropping 5+ PSI. Slightly heavier and a tight fit on HED Ardennes RA so I used levers to install. Fast enough to set PRs. Get the black for the reflective sidewall!
I've got about 500 miles on these so far and liking them a lot. I ride on a lot of chipseal roads and these tires smooth them out.
I've had the previous version and had over 2500 mile on them before road debris sliced them open. We'll see how many miles I can get out of them.

I have put about 1000 mi on these on mostly tarmac, with fair amount of rough roads and some splintery wood plank bridges. Running tubeless and can compare to tubeless Conti GP5000 S (32) and Conti GP5000 (28), on which I put 1000�s of mi in similar conditions. These are all fabulous smooth running tires on which I had only 1 flat � sidewall cut on the 5000 S. One major difference between the AS and those other 5000�s: They would all get minor cuts that would seep sealant at very low rates � not a problem at all, but occurred consistently. This has not happened at all on the AS�s, apparently due to the greater reinforcement (ply�s). Because of that reinforcement, the AS�s are not as kush as the S�s, until you run them at 2-3 psi less pressure, which works for me. So these are great tires: smooth, durable, and noticeably a bit more sticky than the other 5000�s.
So far, these tires have lived up to the hype. I ride in a metro area and you learn very quickly if a tire punctures easily. These do not. They are not affected by glass and small debris like true race tires are. Puncture protection is very good.
The tread is thick. Obviously. Very comparable to Pirelli P Zero Race.
For me, it�s perfect. Won�t puncture easily and is still as fast as anything else.
Because the tire is so thick, it doesn�t have that �supple� feeling like a Corsa Pro. However, I ride on crap roads and chip seal. So I actually prefer a thicker tread that dampens the chatter.
I managed to install a pair 700cx35 on my 2022 Specialized Roubaix Comp and it turned into a super comfortable endurance bike.. even more comfortable than it already was. At 215 lbs, i was able to run the rear tires at 58psi and front at 55psi and they absolutely soaked up the small bumps and ruts i would ride over. Did not feel any penalty in the speed department as i regularly approach even beat my PR's from previously ridden routes. Very happy! I will look into buying the cream walled version next time to add some style points.
2023 TREK Emonda SL7 came on tubeless ready carbon rims but had tubes and non-tubeless rated tires. Switched it early to Conti 4 Seasons (25mm) with tubes and 85psi. After 3K miles did the tubeless upgrade with TREK rim strips and Conti 5K ASTR. ASTR seemed to be the closest tubeless compatible product to the 4Seasons I have used for years. 28mm tires with 70 psi (I�m a 200 lb pretender) improved the bike dramatically. Slightly faster, noticeably smoother but mostly the previously chatter prone frame became silent on all but the biggest hits. Have another 2K with the tubeless and am very near the wear indicators on the rear. Maybe a little disappointed in wear rate at this price point but will continue to support this product. My conclusion is that the bike should have shipped with tubeless and without experiencing other brands/models the ASTR is perfect.
These tires were easy to set up on my wheels. They feel very nice on the road- smooth rolling, grippy in corners, and do well in the wet. I have only ridden them for about 800 miles, but I have been impressed with the durability. I live in the Los Angeles area, so we have a lot of glass and debris on the road. These tires have resisted getting cuts much better than all the tires I've used in the past. I have not had any flats.
At 1200 miles the rear 32c tire developed a slow leak. A month later it stopped holding air. Wear dots were down to nothing, I�m a heavier rider but that seemed a little early as I usually get 1600-2000 miles on the tube GP5000, the earlier 5000 TL, S-Works RapidAir, and Vittoria N.EXT. Disappointed it wore down so soon. Road feel ok, the 32c smooths out rough pavement at 58-64psi. The 28c is a rough ride.
These a great tires to be used while doing training out on the roads and also for road races where the surface can be a bit rough. So far no issues at all. Also they installed very well and sealed up with a regular bike pump. Love that.
I am almost through a 35-day cross-country tour. 110 miles per day. I swapped to these new, tougher Conti 5000 tubeless after wearing out a set of Schwalbe Pro One tubeless. I have never had any piece of bike tech make as much of a difference to my performance. They are dramatically more comfortable and faster. They also installed easily on my notoriously difficult Zipp 303 hookless rims. I can install myself with arthritic hands, without a tire jack. I love these tires!
I'm trying these as a replacement for the GP 5000 S TR I started with. The S TR only got 3300 mi / 5300 km before being worn out, barely 6 months of riding. The AS version is a much tougher version. I've got only a few hunder miles / km on them, so I've no indication, yet, if they are longer wearing, but I am very pleased with the handling of this tire. Corners like the racing version, grips like the racing version, but the feel is much stiffer. At 10-15 psi less than I used to carry, the bumps are still noticeable. Previously, I used about 70 psi, and I'm now down to 55 - 60 psi.
The stiffness of the ride is due to the increased tread thickness. This is also supposed to provide more puncture resistance, but I'm hoping just to get a full year out of these tires. Using Silca Ultimate Tubeless Sealant, I never noticed if I had any punctures, so the puncture resistance is not an issue for me. Only time, and distance, will tell if this change was worth it.
Performs the same as a regular gp5000tr as far as traction/handling in dry weather but slightly heavier and thicker which helps with comfort and durability. It absorbs vibrations slightly better than the regular lighter version. I found that the thicker tire is also less prone to deforming when your rotate tires frequently between rims which helps with easy inflation. Unfortunately I ended up flatting my 28mm about 300 miles in on a massive m8 wood screw. Patched it up but the tire would inflate with a slight hump where the puncture was which pretty much made it useless. Overall it is a great tire that performs just as good as previous models but with added comfort, durability, and reliability but is not invincible. The extra weight is not noticeable. Great for daily use but I wouldn't mind racing on them.
Rode these twice in the rain, wet roads, and found them to be very grippy. Much better than Goodyear and Schwable I had on these rims before. Even pushing pretty hard into corners on wet road I have a great deal of confidence with these tires. I'm 175-180 lbs, and I ran them at 45 psi on wet, vs 50psi for dry roads.
Also raced two criteriums with these tires and they worked fine. Probably not the lightest race-day tire you can get, but good enough for me (Cat 4).
After many years working in a bike shop, I have a longstanding hatred for Continental tires because they are traditionally so tight. BUT, I broke down and tried these as there are very few options for my rims, Giant SLR2 carbon hookless. They were super easy to mount, no problem, and sealed right away.
Out of the package they feel a little more substantial than Schwable Pro One, but not quite as heavy as Goodyear Eagle F1s that I have run on this bike. Roll seems really good and they are very grippy, at least on dry pavement. Only had them one week, but if they're as durable as the ad says, they could be my go-to for training and racing. Pleasantly surprised.
