Schmorglebot Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 After many faithful years of buying GP4000s on Black Friday, riding them for the year, rinsing and repeating. Sadly it looks like Chris Willemse no longer stock my beloved tyre instead opting for the new GP5000 which is sadly pushing the limits of my tyre budget. Was it just wishful thinking to expect the GP4000 to stick around for a little longer? Anyone have any leads on GP4000s at a reasonable price or is it truly the end of an era?
mecheng89 Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 CWC been slacking with specials of late... Keep an eye here on our classifieds I suppose..
Zatek Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 Why not try Tufo Comtura Duo Race tyre. I have been racing on the tire for the past 3 months and can't fault it.
Schmorglebot Posted November 7, 2019 Author Posted November 7, 2019 Definitely might need to consider a different tyre. The GP4000s just ticked all the boxes
Stricker Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 Definitely might need to consider a different tyre. The GP4000s just ticked all the boxesWould very highly recommend you get yourself a pair of gp4000 to test. Fantastic rubber and can assure you once you've gone 5000 you would understand "death of GP4000"

Fantastic rubber and can assure you once you've gone 5000 you would understand "death of GP4000" I fully understand that the 5000 is the superior tyre. It's just the cost that is putting me off. If CWC come to the party and have them at a good price for Black Friday I will buy them in a heartbeat
Schmorglebot Posted November 7, 2019 Author Posted November 7, 2019 Black Friday is on the way #justsaying Fingers firmly crossed
BigDL Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 I’ve just had 4 delivered from CRC. They are on special. 5000’s that is
Schmorglebot Posted November 7, 2019 Author Posted November 7, 2019 I’ve just had 4 delivered from CRC. They are on special. 5000’s that is Definitely an option. What did the total come to?
dave303e Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 the GP 4000s were on the early chain reaction cycles black friday deal yesterday, sold out today already
Schmorglebot Posted November 7, 2019 Author Posted November 7, 2019 Looks like Merlin have a pretty good deal going at the moment. Perhaps I can put together a group buy with some friends
Long Wheel Base Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 Definitely an option. What did the total come to?His profile says he lives in Ireland, shipping, tax etc will be completely different.
Mamil Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 I have a stash of 3 sets bought on the last CW special ...
Pure Savage Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 Crown Cycles have some great prices on the new tyres.
