The Continental Speed King CX Performance tyre has been engineered for versatility. Whether you're commuting to work or wanting to explore the urban jungle, this performance tyre has you covered. It boasts a diamond-shaped centre tread for excellent grip on the road and coarse shoulder lugs for maintaining stability when gliding across the parks and forest paths. This stunning tyre is the perfect choice of upgrade or replacement for taking your urban adventuring up a notch. Technologies: BlackChili Compound: Continental refine newly developed synthetic rubbers with natural rubber with this proven high-performance tread compound. They use these rubbers with special nanometric carbon soot particles, which are optimised in shape and surface properties for best uses for the intended tyre. Tyres with BlackChili Compound reach an unprecedented level of performance. Compared to the previous best Activated Silica Compound, BlackChili tyres have 26% less rolling resistance, a 30% higher friction value (grip) and a 5% increase in mileage. RaceSport Casing: Designed without compromise for use in mountain bike racing, the RaceSport casings combine consistent lightweight construction and noticeable superior puncture protection at the highest level. In cooperation with renowned professional mountain bikers, Continental has created the perfect basis for competition tyres. Handmade in Germany, they offer rolling friction and puncture protection of World Cup quality. The structure makes the difference: a particularly fine and flexible nylon fabric with elaborately manufactured protecting rubber lining and a universal base. Together with the legendary BlackChili Compound, this is the ultimate combination for XC and Marathon Race. NyTech Breaker: Continental's NyTech Puncture Protection has been developed based on the proven Continental SafetySystem Breaker. Its nylon fabric makes it resistant to punctures and cuts like Kevlar reinforced high strength fibres but offers lower rolling resistance and reduced weight. The NyTech breaker sits between the SafetySystem and the PolyX Breaker® as a more effective puncture protection casing in the performance sector.
Continental developed a tread pattern that is studded enough to work well in muddy conditions, yet roll like a semi slick in a straight line. The tall shoulder lugs do provide great bite in the loose and wet corners and of course, their special BlackChili compound boosts grip in all situations whether they be hard & dry, cold & wet, roots, off-cambers, grass or stone. When the tyre deforms under impact with the ground, the BlackChili compound absorbs the shock and propels you forward like no other tyre. It's fast, grippy and it lasts as long as a harder compound tyre, giving you great value for money and the 32mm RaceSport version is UCI legal.
