Review on 🚴 Continental Ultra Sport II - Folding Road Bike Tire, PureGrip Compound (23c, 25c, 28c, 32c) by Scott Rodriguez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Drama-free montage.

After reading other reviews of these tires I was a little worried that I would have trouble fitting them onto my rims. My fears were unfounded. No need to take them to the store, no special tools needed, just some tire changers which you should have anyway. I had to hook the first one to the rim, the second I could just put on with my thumbs. We'll see how they do when I get them out tomorrow, but they're already a lot more grippy than my stock Espoir Sport tires. I am very satisfied with my purchase so far. If you decide to buy these tires, don't worry about mounting them on your rims. It's not as big of a deal as some other reviews might think *update* I'm very very happy with the tires after my first 30 mile ride. Very smooth handling and a much safer driving experience in curves and descents. I also added 0.5 mph to my average speed. I regret not changing the Espoir tires sooner.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
