With the 28mm tyre weighing in at 235g, this is a lightweight race tyre designed with speed in mind .
The Grand Prix 5000 TT TR is hookless-compatible with up to 21 TSS and tubeless-ready. The tyre is available exclusively in the black sidewall colourway, with an RRP of 108.95€ per tyre.Help us to fund our site
