TECHNOLOGIES

BLACKCHILI COMPOUND - With the unique tread compound, Continental has revolutionized the sport of cycling. With the legendary BlackChili Compound they have answered the eternal question of the best balance of grip and rolling resistance for cycling. The latest polymers as well as specially developed carbon black particles and filler materials guarantee unique performance, be it on a road, gravel or a mountain bike, for time trialling or downhill.

TR (Tubeless Ready) -The carcass construction is particularly resistant and insensitive to damage and the penetration of foreign bodies. The result: your tires are versatile, lightweight and have an attractive design. In addition, the tires with this technology can also be used tubeless or in combination with an inner tube.

VECTRAN BREAKER - THE REFERENCE IN PUNCTURE PROTECTION - Vectran is a synthetically produced high-tech fiber with a natural model. Like spider silk, Vectran is a liquid crystalline polymer (LCP). Vectran is spun from the molten liquid polymer Vectra and further processed into a multi-fiber yarn. Both spider silk and Vectran have enormous tensile strength at very low weight. Exactly the right properties to be used as a puncture protection insert in a top Continental tire. A Vectran breaker is lighter, more flexible and provides more effective protection against cuts than comparable nylon breakers. The Vectran Breaker does not affect rolling resistance.

VORTEX GENERATORS - The aero-optimized tread design is obviously different: 48 small air chambers are regularly distributed over the surface of the tire. These so-called Vortex generators direct the turbulence on the surface of the front wheel. The result: a "perfected storm" that enables the drag of the entire wheel-tyre system to be reduced.

SAILING EFFECT - WITH AERO111 - The sailing effect (forward force) increases at all speeds. Even at lower rim profiles, riders benefit from this effect because the laminar airflow stays longer on the rim and the drag of the wheel-tyre system is reduced.
