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.SafetySystem Breaker: The SafetySystem Breaker is made up of Kevlar-reinforced, high-strength nylon fabric. Puncture and cut-resistant but nevertheless light and flexible, the tyre adjust quickly to the surface below. Without raising the weight or rolling resistance noticeably, it protects the carcass against foreign objects and contributes to a longer lifespan of the tyre. Tyres with the SafetySystem Breaker also provide good comfort properties.Buy Continental Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Tubular tyres can be a daunting, difficult and time-consuming proposition for a lot of riders. While clinchers are a comparative breeze to mount, tubulars require glue or less-effective taping in order to be safely mounted. Effetto Mariposa's Carogna Tubular Tape provides all the performance of glue, with the ease of tape.Extremely easy to use, making tubular tyres far quicker to fit safelyProvides excellent adhesion and is highly heat-resistant; perfect for road racingLeaves the rim ready for next gluing or taping when removed.Suitable for road or cyclocross use on carbon or aluminium rimsSize-specific for different rim widthsGluing tubular tyres and rims is both time-consuming and messy. With the need for the glue to set before mounting the tyre, realistically it can take days rather than minutes to safely mount them. This is where Effetto Mariposa's Carogna Tubular Tape provides a key advantage; it is incredibly easy and quick to use and offers incredibly secure adhesion to rival gluing. It also offers excellent heat-resistance, making it perfect for high-performance use where rim temperatures can soar. The tape also leaves no residue, so once removed the rim needs no additional cleaning before it is next glued or more tape is re-applied.Not only is Carogna Tubular Tape extremely easy to use, it is also suitable for both road and cyclocross use, with it being rated to extremely high and low-temperature use. Rim material is not a problem either, as the Carogna Tape is suitable for use with both aluminium and carbon rims. The tape comes in different sizes to suit different rim widths, with the Small width suitable for rims up to 20mm wide, Small/Medium suitable for 21-24mm rims and Medium suitable for the latest modern rims between 25 and 28mm wide. Easy to use and incredibly secure, no longer should you fear tubular tyres thanks to Effetto Mariposa's Carogna Tubular Tape.

Carogna Remover is a modern solvent that will soften & gelify dried-out mastic or glues from tubular rims. Then its easier to remove this debris making for the optimal (clean) surface for installation of new Effetto tub tape.
Adhesion is guaranteed by industrial-grade acrylic glue, native to the base tape. This means that when removing the tubular (breaking its bond with the rim), the acrylic glue will stay on the tape, not on the rim. Acrylic has a good adhesion on both aluminium and carbon without any specific surface preparation.

Effetto Mariposa Carogna Tubular Rim TapeEffetto started developing their Carogna (pronounced “car-own-ya”) double sided adhesive tubular tape with a clear and ambitious goal to bridge the gap between previously existing tapes and mastic in terms of gluing performance and heat-resistance, while retaining all the advantages of tapes.In addition to this, they gave specific additional consideration to cyclocross and mountain-bike tubular tyres, where specific features are needed from the gluing standpoint.The “S” tape is recommended for traditional/legacy tubular rims (external width up to 20mm). Features: Extremely easy to use. Very reliable adhesion, in any condition. Once removed, Carogna leaves the rim ready for the next gluing, without additional cleaning. Universal performance: Carogna has been tested and is designed to perform flawlessly on any rim material (aluminium/carbon), with any tubular (seamless, handmade, vulcanised sew-ups…), on and off-road. Wide temperature range: Once adhesion is set, the use at low temperatures (down to -40°C) is not a problem. Thermal resistance of all materials used in the manufacture of Carogna was a high priority: Carogna will provide a perfect bonding at 150°C for extended periods (hours), exceeding the heat-resistance of even the best mastics and widely exceeding the heat-resistance of any other tubular tape. Optimised adhesive surface: Adhesion is very strong and uniform across the whole circumference of the rim for all tubulars and it is also uniform across the tubular base tape. One shortcoming of tubular tape to-date has been limited adhesion at the edges of the base tape or in the centre of tubulars with a raised centre seam. Carogna solves these problems. Optimal use: The ideal thermal range for application of Carogna is between 21°C and 38°C, allowing 8 hours to reach 80% of the adhesive strength. Applying the tape below 10°C is not recommended. Effetto recommend cleaning surfaces using iso-propylic alcohol. Buy Effetto Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
