Key Features

• Active Comfort Technology: This innovative approach in cycling is integrated into the tire construction to absorb vibrations and provide a smoother ride.
• BlackChili: Our exclusive tread compound, made only in Germany, has transformed cycling. The BlackChili Compound offers the perfect balance of grip and rolling resistance. It consistently wins tests, proving its advantages both in the lab and on the road. The latest polymers, along with specially developed carbon black particles and fillers, ensure exceptional performance.
• Lazer Grip: Designed to connect you with the road, the laser-etched micro profile structure extends over the tire's shoulder, enhancing cornering capabilities.
• Vectran: A high-tech synthetic fiber inspired by nature, Vectran is a liquid-crystalline polymer similar to spider silk. It is spun from melted liquid polymer Vectra and further processed into a multi-strand thread. Vectran offers high tear resistance at a low weight, making it ideal for use in premium Continental bicycle tires as a puncture protection insert. The Vectran Breaker is lighter, more flexible, and provides better cut protection than comparable nylon breakers, without affecting rolling resistance.
• 12% reduction in rolling resistance
• 20% increase in puncture protection
• 10g lighter (for the 700x25c tube-type size)
• Handmade in Germany
