## Questions & Answers

**Q: how can one tire fit 3 different rim size. I need a 700 X 25 but there is no place to select size and yet the description says 23,25,28..**
A: The "700" is the diameter which all three are....The "25 -28" refers to the width of the rim. This is a very small difference which the tire can expand to accommodate.

**Q: Are these tires actually manufactured in Germany?**
A: Yes, the are manufactured in Germany. Thank you.

**Q: is this the folding tire?**
A: Yes, they come shipped in a small box. I think they are called "Kevlar bead"

**Q: what is hard shell over a regular tire**
A: Big difference between a regular tire is more puncture resistanceExtra tread rubber for more mileage, great for a commuterReinforced with DuraSkin (polyamide mesh sidewalls)

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Flat protection to the max! Sidewalls are showing wear from rides. Needs color options!
*by G***E on April 2, 2014*

I commute 8 miles round trip daily for work for exercise and to save gas on my 1992 diamondback interval tg I restored. When theres events I'll take it for a 15-20 mile ride one way to downtown miami. avg 200 miles a month. The tires are quality. They up hold up when riding areas with a lot of obstacles and debris. There is a lot of glass and crap from people throwing garbage out of windows and car accidents in this area. I have not gotten flats due to punctures yet. I did get a pinch flat from hitting a sidewalk really hard. My fault.The aren't hard to get on or off my bike rims. Holding up over time. Haven't put over a 1000 miles on them yet. Hit a glass patch hard and sliced my tire but didnt go all the way through so these are tough. Patched with shoe goo and is hanging on. The side walls a showing wear. no issues yet, but doesnt look pretty. I like them a lot and getting a 28mm for a new back rim i got from work I fixed up. Hoping for a comfier ride.They are a little slower than racier tires but its much better than getting a flat once a month or every 100-150 miles like i have been on a pair of safaris. They are smooth, STIFF, and grippy but I've slipped out a few times in a hard corner and in the rain a few times. Not a great wet riding tire,Wish they had this tire in more color options to match my handlebar grips. ugly looking tire but it works well.Having flats? Get this. I bought these over rinodillios cuz I like quicker rides. i keep a good pace of 20 - 23mph when there isn't sick head wind or having to stop all the time at lights.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ THE Go-To tire for far-from-home rides.
*by A***R on September 8, 2017*

Despite owning several sets of wheels and tires, these Conti Gator Hardshell tires are my go-to tires for far-from-home ultra-distance cycling.I feel more confident knowing I have the Hardshells under me when traversing unfamiliar roads and territory. As a very experienced cyclist, I've had the chance to ride on just about all the tire brands and models of tire available in the U.S. I settled upon the Continental brand after noticing them on the bikes of many of my cycling teammates. I researched and really liked the low rolling resistance of the 4000S2 but too often saw problems with punctures. After my first few Double Centuries featured multiple flats on the 4KS2s, I made the switch to these Hardshells. I have experienced the peace of mind these offer in the form of nearly bullet-proof toughness and more than tolerable road comfort. These aren't as supple as the S2s in cornering but on the flats, they perform and feel very similarly, just a touch firmer. The tread wear has been phenomenal...The flashing ridge finally wore-off after more than 600 miles on my front tire. I ride 25mm rear and 23mm out front. I have yet to ride a bike tire (by ANY manufacturer) which ticks as many boxes as these do: Ultra-durable treadwear, Ultra-puncture resistant, Reasonable weight, Good comfort on the road, Good traction in the dry and okay in the wet, Excellent sidewall cut-resistance, phenomenal service-life, etc. These are NOT the paper-thin lightest OR lowest rolling resistance tires for time trialists, but for every-day urban commuting, long- or ultra-distance endurance cycling, or even trouble-free neighborhood touring, these are THE BEST investment you can make towards improving your cycling enjoyment. Just install them and ride defensively and you'll rarely need that spare tube or repair kit ever again. Happy riding!**UPDATE** ....1-28-18: Pulled three dreaded tips off "goathead" thorns straight out of the tread after a century ride at home. Expecting quick deflation...aired up and left wheel overnight. I checked the pressure the next morning and NO PUNCTURE. The air pressure held. I rode 78 miles on the tire and checked air pressure the next day again and re-confirmed the tube was not punctured by the dreaded Tribulus Terrestris thorns. I have flatted before by one of these thorns on this tire, but this time, three couldn't get through.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Tire - You Can Get a Lot of Miles on these Tires
*by D***H on August 28, 2019*

5-7-21 3rd Review - I just replaced both the front and back tires today after having them on my bike forever. I last bought the front tire on Oct. 5th, 2019 so, I got a year and 7 months out of the front one. The Rear Tire I replaced in April 1st 2020 so, I got 13 months out of it before the belt wear indicator started to show. I rode on average 120 miles per week last year and I am riding about 110 miles per week this year. These tires are awesome! I don't know the amount of mileage that I got out of them because my app stopped showing me my lifetime mileage but, getting over a year on tires is incredibly GREAT! I can tell you it was a lot of miles and I was surprised that the wear indicator hadn't shown up until recently. I kept looking for it. It totally surprised me that both the front and rear tire wear indicator appeared at the same time. These tires are well worth the money and I will recommend them to everybody.It won't let me add a 2nd review. I will add my latest review at the top of this. This was my 3rd time buying this tire so, now I can do a better review on them. I got 4,500 miles out this tire at 100+ mile bike rides a week, it was about 10 months. I stretched it a little. I started to see the belt showing at about 4,000 miles and I got an extra 5 weeks out of it before the belt was very noticeable. To me, getting 4,000 miles out of tire is GREAT!I replaced my front tire a while ago but, soon after I replaced the rear one. The front tire will last longer for sure. I will probably be ordering a front one in the next couple of months if the belt starts to show and if it's before I get a new bike.I will leave my old message review below.I was a little worried about the tire size when I ordered my Continental tire. I have found out the tire sizes are weird when you order them online and when you go to a local bike shop in the U.S.. For me Continental tires the best thing I found to do is go with the ISO size. My ISO of my original tire was a ISO 37-622 or a 700x35C tire. This tire fit my wheel on my Walmart Schwinn Varsity 2500 bike good!I was looking for an arrow to see if they were directional tires and saw what I am showing in the picture. I wasn't sure I had a lip on the inside of my rim but, I had a small one...phew. This tire worked great on my rear wheel. I thought I would point it out to people that are interested in getting one of these to make sure your wheel has a lip on it before ordering them.You can't go wrong with the right sized Continental tires on your bike. My old City Ride that I replaced this new tire with on the rear got 3400 miles. All of the Continental tires I have had lasted over 3000 miles.As far as speed on this tire, I didn't notice the difference at first and I have put over 100 miles in on my new Contact Speed tire but, I did notice, I wasn't hitting my slowest average time for a 30 mile even on a strong headwind day.
