With the legendary Black Chili compound it has 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, time trial (TT) or triathlon (Tri) bike.Vectran BreakerVectran is spun from liquid crystal-polymer. This way a thermoplastic, multiple-thread yarn is created. As a comparison: This partially crystalline fabric is more cut-resistant than aramid and its tensile strength is five times higher than that of steel. A Vectran breaker is lighter, more flexible and effective against cuts than a comparable nylon breaker. Without effecting rolling resistance.Active Compound Technology and Lazer GripThe revolutionary approach in cycling. Embedded in the tyre construction the Active Comfort Technology (ACT) absorbs vibrations and smoothens your ride. This model's Lazer Grip is designed to make you one with the road. The lazered micro profile structure expands over the tyre's shoulder and provides outstanding cornering.Tubeless ReadyComing complete with tubeless ready technology, the Continental Grand Prix 5000 TT TDF Road Tyre (Limited Ed.) allows you to benefit from tubeless advantages such as the ability to run lower tyre pressures. As a result, you'll notice increased stability, lower rolling resistance and fewer chances of flats or punctures.Please note: For initial mounting Continental recommend using at least 30 ml of Conti RevoSealant per tyre (available separately). Then spin the tyre (wheel) to spread the Conti RevoSealant inside of the tyre and pump to the allowed maximum pressure. Check the pressure before the next ride and adjust to your desired PSI.
