  • How would you compare to GP5000 All Seasons? Everything is pointing to putting these on (also in 35c) this winter but I'm intrigued by the Mondos.

    And yeah agreed, ran Cinturato's last winter and whilst grip was ok, they felt dead to ride.

  • I haven't used GP5000 all seasons so I can only compare to the regular version. The Mondo's are definitely slower. I've not yet tried them on a 'fast' ride to see how they stack up but they haven't felt sluggish on my commutes / long rides.

    When I bought the Mondo's they were about £20 a tyre cheaper than the GP 5000 AS ones so that clinched it, if price wasn't an issue I would have gone GP As.

  • Ok cheers. I was about to pull the trigger on 5000AS as the last three long rides I've had on STR's have all ended up with big nicks/dynaplugs/slowly non-sealing rear tyre needing regular re-inflation.

    That said none of the cuts were on the central tread so I'm sceptical the All Season would be much better, on BRR it scores higher at everything than the Mondo....except their guess at puncture protection. I'm guessing it's probably all much of a muchness between them.
