I'm not cheap by any means, but I have to laugh at the approx $30 per month wear rate on a set of these, assuming the worst case scenario of 8 months for a set. Having said that I'll absolutely give these a shot at some point.
Yeah, that was definitely a WCS projection. I've got contis that are still going strong after two years, but some folks are sticklers about tread wear and tire life, so I erred on the shorter end of the spectrum.
Great marketing. Along with anecdotal review of a $120 tire, with no real “qualitative” analysis proving the tires effective ability to deflect/direct wind and increase speed and performance . You can actually buy a care tire for that price just to put things into perspective 😅
So Interesting ! I didn't know they had also worked on the tyres. Here's a bit of insight : SwissSide founder comes from the world of Formula 1 aero parts design, I can only name Ku Cycle's chief consulting engineer and HJC helmets guys with the same level of zero-nonsense real-world turbulent flow fine knowledge & approach to design. (But KU bikes are as ugly as they come ahah, oh and yeah there's those Lotus off course, but it's a laminar flow setting those track bikes, same as the Koga, Look, Pippo Ganna's hour record Pinarello etc). The work they've been doing with Decathlon, the ONERA the french NASA if you will, DT Swiss & Continental is the most serious "let's look at everything we can" (Road & TT frames, wheels, helmets, suits etc) work I've seen in the industry, as most brands usually don't even bother with non laminar-flow testing for a simple matter of too high extra expenditure. Direct application of all of this is what you experienced here with this stability in crosswinds at a broad range of speeds. Very glad you mentioned it. I wouldn't buy it any-time soon though, have way too much to train first to be able to truly enjoy it, I'm more sluggish rn than a good ol' pair of Schwalbe marathon + ahah
@@AndyClarkRealReviews those vortex generators (or typically called inverted back knob which halfy use in MTB tires) are submissive to punctures. yes it is super aero when newly installed but on a public clean road where road extremes varies significantly, GP5000s are way more puncture resist like day and night. furthermore, GP5000 have mixed bags of feedback and review, imagine putting the same material to the tire design like this, lessening the inner punct protection material; that is way more punct inviting.

Honestly, the only reason I'm permanently gonna run Aero 111 is not cause of some aero benefit I can't feel but the insane grip I absolutely can feel.
Pretty sure SwissSide helped develop the Canyon Aeroad's geometry. That's major.

Wait, didn't you do this same exact video for Competitive Cyclist?
Yep, adding here for additional reach.

Yep, they're pricey for sure. And yep - next time I'm testing with a power meter. Great feedback, appreciate it!

“Fastest tyre on earth” 😆
You spelled tire wrong. 😛

I dont want to ruin it but. The design is… puncture inviting. That design does NOT push away but rather bite more road external extremes.
Hm. What’s your basis for this conclusion? Tell me more.

hahaha, almost won 2024 Vuelta, keep dreaming
2:36 qualifies as ALMOST in just about everyone’s book.
