The deal of today
I need an 11 speed chain always use shimano and 2 tires conti gp 5000. I managed to get 2 of the GP 5000 TDF addition with cream sidewalls and an 11 speed 105 chain for $115, total after the price and then a 20 percent coupon from the browser, Wow I feel like that is an incredible deal really. Hard for the LBS to compete with that and I got it a the Competitive Cyclist I don't think I have used them before.

Conti would rake in the cash if they offered the TDF tires in more than just 25mm.

I would assume that 25mm is still the most popular size for performance road tires, but yeah, I'd buy some 28mm skinwalls (well, not from Conti [not compatible with my rims], but you know...).

Pffft! Conti - always slow on the draw. I mean, it *did* take them a handful of years just to catch up to other manufacturers and finally offer a tubeless product. They should have a hookless option in another 5 years or so. Until then, I'll suffer though these horrible Schwalble Pro One Addix, Vittoria Corsa, Michelin Power, Goodyear Eagle F1, Pirelli P Zero, etc, etc.
