Depends on what you want them for.

Training tire you cant beat the gatorskin, Best training tire you will ever get.

 

The 4000 I would say would be better suited to a race type tire...

I have 4000S on my race wheels (HED Jet 5) and Ultra's on my training wheels(Zipp 101).... I just love the feel of the 4000s... would i be silly to wrap the 101's with 4000S?

Nope I don't think so. I ride with the 4000s and move them over to my training wheels (Shimano WH500) when I get a new set for the racing wheels.

 

I do the same,  race new 4000.   Train on old 4000.

 

Gators are a brilient training tyre but using your old 4000 makes more financial sence.

I like the way you think :)

Where?

Yup, just came from them in Greenpoint. I dislike going to bike shops, ended buying more than just the tyres :(

 

They have foldable Gatorskins for R450 each. Hence my dilema... but the new will go on the HED and used on the Zipps.... cant wait to get home.... 3 hours, 4 min in counting
