I made what I thought was a decent offer, and it has been rejected. Still no bids though.....
See how the auction goes

Reviews are mixed - maybe I'm just reluctant to change, I still like the GP4000s!
This review https://www.bicyclerollingresistance.com/road-bike-reviews/continental-grand-prix-5000-s-tr#pr
says:-
The main problem with changing to just 2 layers of (thinner) casing material under the tread is seen in the puncture resistance tests as the puncture resistance of the tread has gone down by 30% in our test. We'll have to wait for more real-life user experiences about puncture resistance, but the 5000 S TR definitely will be more prone to punctures.
No punctures with mine after 1000 miles.
Two on eBay here (auction, just listed, could try an offer)

Thanks - is that on the new TR S ones @Milzy? I'm up to about 1500 miles on the TL ones and likewise, no punctures.
How did you set them up?
Mine were setup by the company that made my bike, so I've no idea what sealant is in them. I've never used tubeless before - so flying blind......
