I Tried the New Specialized Turbo Tires- Goodbye GP5000?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 ส.ค. 2024
- Initial impressions on the new Specialized S-Works Turbo tubeless (2BR) tires and how they compare to the Continental Grand Prix 5000 TL and Grand Prix 5000 S TR. At $80, these might be one of the best road tires I've ever ridden and on par with the king of road tires, the GP5000. Not to mention, significantly less $$$.
These tires were paired with a set of Enve 4.5 AR wheels on the new Enve Melee.
After nearly 1,000 miles on the Specialized S-Works Aethos and 600 miles on the Enve Melee, I can't help but ask, "Is this really a fair comparison?" They're such different bikes, both so good.

Good review, I switched back to Clinchers in the past year. Curious to know if you have had experience on the Spec. Turbo Cottons and if so, how do the GP5000 TL's compare ?
I've ridden the old Turbo Cottons- they're fast but I hesitate with the puncture protection.
I switched from Schwalbe Pro One to GP4000 around 2018 and GP 5000 a few years later. Then in 2020 I switched to S Works 2bliss tyres. I’ve never looked back. The ride quality of the S works and the grip in wet and dry was noticeably immediately.
I just purchased the Vittoria Corsa N.EXT road tires in 32mm. OMG amazing tire. I will retire my Conti 5000's. Running Zipp 303 Firecrest's. Sorry you're sick. Feel better.
Ha! Good ear on the sickness! I'll check those out as well- thanks!
Just purchased a set of those but haven’t fitted them yet! I’m a ENVE SES 700x29 guy and the bike shop reckons these new N.EXT’s are way better! 👍🏻
Good vid, nice and clear, shout out to the Conti 5000s too, lighter and quicker than the original 5000, and supposed to be slightly more puncture resistant. I've had the 5000s on Rovals TL all season and they're fab, fast, grippy, light, no punctures yet.
Nice! 5000’s are just so good. If you saw my recent Instagram story, you’d know that I’m a little disappointed in how quickly these lose air.
I just switched from the specialized Roubaix tire to the continental 5000 tire. I felt that the specialized Roubaix tire was a lot smoother than the continental tire. Both size 28.
Interesting. I’ll have to try that one in the future.
Installe these SWORKS 2BR tires (28 size) on my Princeton Carbonworks PEAK 4550 wheels yesterday. You are right in saying that the suggested tire pressures seem a bit high. I typically run 65 PSI with Vittoria Corsa tires , tried to run these 2BR tires at the suggested pressure (around 75 PSI in my case) and the ride was way too firm/rigid and almost unbearable on bumpy sections of road. I will test again with 68 to 70 PSI and see how that goes. Otherwise, the tires mounted pretty easily and they seem to roll ok so far.
They’re pretty good! In the end, mine wouldn’t hold air and I swapped them for a set of Pirelli PZERO TLR SL’s
@@outdoorbros_ mine aren’t holding air as well as they could either.
I have always liked the s works turbo line road tires . i rode the s works turbo clincher 26c for lots of miles an its a good solid performer with good grip an nice an supple.. Now i use continental on other bikes as well.. Its hard to beat a continental imo overall.. For speed the only tires ive tested as fast or are comparable is the vittoria cosrsa.s but i will agree over all the turbo line is a solid performer i like it even for commuting never even 1 flat ever with the turbo clinchers
Vittoria Corsa next 700x26 with ridenow inner tube 230 grams.....Winning
So light- amazing.
If we put puncture resistance aside, do you think the old turbo cotton is a faster and more supple tyres?
One of the best! I just wish it lasted longer.
Did you ever produce a follow up vid to this?
I didn’t. I might have gotten a bad batch, but they didn’t hold air after a while and my lbs has yet to have them back in stock for an exchange.
Zipp 303S wont even support 80 P{LSI, believe it maxes at 72. I like the review and although I enjoy the Schwalbe Pro One TLE in 30mm they do weep sealant which is annoying so looking for a change.
These have been okay, just lose air fairly quickly.
Let me guess. You three favorite helmets are from Specailized! 😂
Come on Mohamad! You know that's only partially true.
@@outdoorbros_ we love your content. Just give us some diversity with the products that you review
@@mohamadjamil3164 noted, as always.
@@outdoorbros_ pinarello dogma if possible and thank you again for the great content
@@mohamadjamil3164 if I had one available, I would. That bike always intrigues me.
Did you ever do the long term follow up on these? Interested in how they held up and your long term view
Unfortunately they lost a ton of air and I swapped them for Pirellis. My LBS has yet to get the tires back in stock for me to swap them.
@@outdoorbros_ Well, I grabbed a pair after *much* deliberation, coming off of GP5000 TR S we'll see how i feel about them. A bit confused by Speshy's tire pressure guidelines for these which are *really high* / over the hookless rim max (riding 353's w/ a 72PSI max)
Will these work on wheels that are not going to be tubeless? I love TPU tubes.
GP5000 S TR - I found them not very reliable .... maybe mine bad luck? GP5000 (standard) worked for me for 2y. but with S TR (tubeless) i had problems in last 3 months, and i had to pump them up every day.
maybe they are too thin ???
Not good! I just ran a set down to the wear indicators and they worked well.
I love my Pathfinder Pro 38mm. However, is the center stripe on Tubo's smoother than the Conti GP5000?
Good question! I'm not sure.
Just got these (tube only) paired it with my CLX rapide wheels with silca latex inner tubes and having only done 30 miles on them I can’t give a review or anything yet. But coming from GP5000 on my CLX64 wheels. I can say that these are more comfortable than those. Running the same PSI.
Only one ride in but I think I like these more than the previous generation turbo tires.
I think they make these in cotton also? But the color of the wall is darker. Not really light than the current turbo cottons, if that makes sense?
Yup, totally makes sense. They are very supple and grip well. Jury is still out on whether or not they’ve better than the 5000’s.
Continental gp 5000 s tr or the new rapidair? What is faster?
Both great tires.
Awesome... what PSI would you run with your ENVE 4.5 AR on your SWORKS SL7?
Hey Richard, I’ve been riding them at around 70psi- seems to work well.
@@outdoorbros_ thanks I’m running the new enve 6.7 been running about the same..i was just curious about your take. Thanks for the info and love your content! Fyi did my 1st LOTOJA this year! Amazing experience!
Great review with the only disappointment being that Works bike box that's been being you every single episode.
Hahaha- should I replace it with an Enve box?
@@outdoorbros_ Yes please, if only to see whether people notice the change to your backdrop. Anyhow keep up the amazing content.
Hi, please could you recomend me a gravel tire in 32c or 33c? Its the max tonmy roadie bike and will like to add some gravel trainings and rides time to time but not much at all that can find: vittoria terreno dry, gravelkings sk, or challenge are some..
Thanks a lot for the help
any followup yet?
I must have gotten a bad set- they wouldn't hold air. I need to warranty them and try again (bummed).
@@outdoorbros_ my Turbo 2BRs are already off and back to my Continental 5000s. I didnt like the setup and they measured slower for me.
Turbo cotton.
Too puncture-prone.
@@outdoorbros_ not in summer Melbourne
