Technical specification

Technologies used

In this chapter we explain the technologies that the manufacturer uses for this product.

PureGrip Compound - The excellent compound technology
Based on the activated silica compound, a single-minded approach was taken towards a compound technology in the performance segment. The result Continental's research and development department in Korbach produced a new compound technology with excellent grip and cross-country skiing properties after intensive development efforts. The new rubber compound with the self-explanatory name "PureGrip" joins the BlackChili Compound and is used in performance products in the race and mountain bike segments. Here it ensures long-lasting traction and high mileage of Continental tires, which are manufactured exclusively in the production facility in Hefei (Asia).

ShieldWall System - Leaves nothing to be desired
The ShieldWall system combines the optimal combination of high puncture protection and the best smooth running with low weight. This is made possible by an additional, all-round puncture protection layer, which consists of a finely woven cross fabric. This gives the tire a high level of resistance to punctures and injuries. Despite the additional layer, the tire has very good damping properties and is extremely flexible so that it can be perfectly adapted to the ground. The revolutionary tubeless ready foot enables easy and uncomplicated assembly of the tire. Conti Revo-Sealant seals reliably.

Tubeless ready
The specially developed, additional and all-round puncture protection layer of the carcass are particularly resistant and insensitive to damage and the penetration of foreign bodies. For maximum effect, Continental combines ProTection with BlackChili Compound. The result: your tires are versatile, lightweight and have an attractive design. In addition, tubeless ready tires can also be used with this technology.

E25 - E-bike capable
For e-bike tires, Continental can draw on over 100 years of experience in moped and motorcycle tires. All city / trekking tires reach at least the standard up to 25 km / h. The tires marked with E50 are also approved for S-Pedelecs. With their high-quality construction, they have a high level of puncture protection, low rolling resistance and protection against premature wear due to the additional driving force.
