Challenge Grifo Team Edition Cyclocross 700x33c Tubular Working in conjunction with elite athletes, Challenge has developed the best all-around cross tubular ever, one that excels in wet or dry, soft packed, rocky and root-infested courses. The Grifo team edition tubular features fast-rolling knobs and a centre section that offers excellent pedalling and braking traction. The casing is produced with the latest technical materials like Corespun (a cotton/polyester mix). Corespun produces a tyre casing that is very supple, strong, and low in weight. The tyres high TPI count (threads per inch) in conjunction with a latex inner tube adds flexibility, allowing it to conform better to the terrain, improving impact and vibration absorption while reducing rolling resistance for ultimate speed. Puncture protection comes in the form of a a specially designed fabric that is placed between the tread and casing. This PPS (puncture protection strip is resistant to foreign object penetration and cuts.

Perfect for all riding conditions, this tyre gives you fast-rolling resistance and excellent handling when cornering. Technologies: Challenge Handmade Clinchers (HCL): These Handmade Clinchers are made from the same materials and processes as our handmade tubulars but instead of sewing an inner tube inside the casing is wrapped around an aramid bead to form a tire that fits on a clincher rim. The HCL is moulded flat, not in a horseshoe like a TLR or VCL. This shape allows the casing to naturally deform over surface imperfections and minimize rolling resistance. A tubeless tire is moulded in a U-shape to make the sidewalls rigid, so the system does not “burp” or lose air when it deforms after it encounters a surface imperfection. The tubeless tire’s stiff sidewall compromises its ability to equal a supple HCL with a latex inner tube.

Challenge Strada Bianca ProTubular Cyclocross TyreThe Challenge Challenge Strada Bianca ProTubular Cyclocross Tyre offers world-class fast rolling resistance and is specifically designed for gravel riding and racing. It's also ideal for those with gravel bikes who are looking for a tyre that enables you to run lower pressures for more comfortable road riding without the worry of puncturing. This is thanks to the double PPS (Puncture Protection System) between the tread and casing, which provides excellent durability without excess bulk.Hand AssembledChallenge uses the latest technical materials such as corespun for the inner casing of these tyres. This material produces a very high TPI (threads-per-inch) count to ensure the ultimate in strength, suppleness, and low weight. This casing is then hand glued on to the tread, which has previously been installed and inflated on a rim. This means that when the assembled tyre is inflated, it provides more precise handling, lower rolling resistance, and better grip.Shock AbsorbingThe best materials have been used to obtain consistent grip over uneven terrain and reduce the vibration feedback to the rider, helping you to maintain grip and control on even the longest and roughest races. The advanced design reduces wheel skipping and jumping over rough surfaces, ensuring efficient grip and helping you to maintain your speed. These tyres also feature a double layer of Challenge's PPS (puncture protection system) between the tread and casing, to give you confidence when blasting over tree roots and sharp rocks.Features: Size: 700 Tyre Width: 30mm Internal Rim Width: 15-19mm TPI: 260 Casing: SuperPoly Flat Protection: Double PPS BAR: 4-10 PSI: 60-150 Inner Tube: LatexTechnologies: Challenge Handmade Tubulars (HTU): Our Handmade Tubular (HTU) tires perform better than any tubeless system! Therefore, they are raced by all the top athletes and teams in every cycling segment. The latex inner tube we cradled inside the high-quality casing that is sewn shut, forming a soft protective layer for the delicate tube. A base tape is glued over the sewing for protection and to absorb the adhesive later applied to hold the tubular on the rim. The carcass is mounted on a rim, inflated and a special natural rubber tread is precisely glued on top. Puncture protection layers and sealants can be applied to the finished casing, depending on the tubular's use.Buy Challenge Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Each year, Continental gets requests from ProTour teams and professional triathletes for sponsorship. They all want the same thing...Continental Competition tubulars. It's the combination of the 22mm dimpled Black Chili profile, and the reliable construction that keeps all of these athletes coming back for more. Vectran™ Breaker Vectran is a synthetically manufactured high-tech fibre from a natural model. Like spider silk, Vectran is a liquid-crystalline polymer (LCP). Vectran is spun from melted liquid polymer Vectra and processed further to a multi-strand thread. Spider silk, like Vectran, has an enormous tear resistance at a very low weight – exactly the right properties to process into a premium Continental bike tyre as a puncture protection insert. A Vectran Breaker is lighter, more flexible and protects more effectively against cuts than the comparable nylon breaker. Vectran Breaker does not adversely affect the rolling resistance. The latest Competition tubular features their BlackChili compound, which increases grip whilst lowering rolling resistance without affecting wear - truly phenomenal! BlackChili Compound Continental refine newly developed synthetic rubbers with natural rubber with the proven high-performance tread compound. They use these rubbers with special nanometric carbon soot particles, which are optimized in shape and surface properties for best uses for the intended tyre. BlackChili Compound reaches an unprecedented of performance. 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.
