Tuning through more propulsion

Here, the name speaks for itself. The Speed King is a tuning tire for racing machines and carbon hardtails that weighs a minimum. The profile geometry is specifically geared towards propulsion, which requires a trained hand with the lowest possible rolling resistance. Its RaceSport casing is uncompromisingly fast and has been tried and tested in the World Cup. Thanks to the BlackChili compound, it develops excellent grip when rolling efficiently. But it is a pure competition tire with only reduced mileage.

Technologies used

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

BlackChili - it's all in the mix
With Continental's unique tread compound made only in Germany, they have revolutionized the cycling scene. With the legendary BlackChili Compound, Continental was able to answer the eternal question of whether grip or rolling resistance was sustainable.

Regular test victories prove the measurable and tangible advantages for the driver in the laboratory and on the road. The latest polymers as well as specially developed soot particles and fillers guarantee a unique performance.

RaceSport
Uncompromisingly designed for use in mountain bike and cross racing: The RaceSport carcasses combine consistent lightweight construction and noticeably better puncture protection at the very highest level. Together with well-known professional mountain bikers, Continental has created the perfect starting point for competition tires. Handcrafted in Germany, they offer rolling resistance and puncture protection at World Cup level. The structure makes the difference: a particularly fine and flexible nylon fabric, elaborately manufactured, protective rubber coating and a universal base. Together with the legendary BlackChili Compound, this is the ultimate combination for XC and marathon races.
