Continental Grand Prix Classic Tires
Looks GREAT!
I see you're riding Continental Grand Prix Classic 700 x 25c tires. How do you like them?
I have those tires on several bikes and the jury is still out.
They have just about the same feel as the old Conti Grand Prix 700 x 23c tires that I've been riding for years - which I like. They were discontinued about 2010. I got 24 of them for ~$12 each on a closeout so I still have a few NOS left.
I rode the Grand Prix Classics yesterday and the old Grand Prix tires today on similar riding bikes so I got a good comparison. I guess that I was expecting a more cushy touring tire with the Grand Prix Classics when I bought them a while back.
