Technologies:
PolyX Breaker Technology: With its PolyX Breaker, Continental brings its PKW know-how to the bike tyre arena – Polyester has been used successfully for years in car tyres and has been tried and tested many times. The extremely resistant polyester fibre is woven tightly crosswire making a very high fabric density which not only makes the Breaker more resistant to foreign objects but is also resistant to punctures. The rolling resistance is not affected either by the PolyX Breaker

DuraSkin: Tyres with DuraSkin sidewall protection have to roll with the punches. These tyres are used in the harshest conditions. On messenger bikes, on epic travel bikes crossing continents without wearing through and in professional cycling they have to endure tough tests such as Paris-Roubaix. The high-quality polyamide fabric reliably protects the casing of the tyre and protects the tyre from the worst conditions. These tyres stand out with their brown sidewalls. The slick natural rubber tread is designed to perform well in wet/wintery conditions

• High mileage, durable and fast rolling tyre
• DuraSkin polyamide mesh layer fabric on sidewalls protects the casing against cuts, punctures and abrasion
• 180 thread per inch casing with Kevlar-reinforced layer directly under the tread, resists punctures and adds to longevity of tyre
• Slick tread for exceptional grip in wet and dry conditions
• Supple handling and low rolling resistance
