Whether you're clocking up the miles with your local club or exploring new routes on your own, this road bike tyre is designed for maximum performance. It features Continental's PureGrip compound, which is based on activated silica compounds to give you performance-level results. Delivering outstanding grip as well as cross-country properties, this tyre is the perfect all-rounders for riders who want an upgrade that's designed for going the extra mile. The Advanced PureGrip Compound Based on activated silica compounds, this technology was originally intended as a performance level compound, but after intensive development at our Korbach Research and Development Department Facility, an advanced new compound with outstanding grip and cross-country properties was developed. This new rubber mix, given the self-explanatory name “PureGrip”, is ranked just behind our BlackChili Compound and is being used in our performance products both in the road and mountain bike sectors. Whilst providing great grip, it is also long-lasting and highly durable – both characteristics of Continental tires, which are exclusively manufactured in the factory in Hefei (Asia).
The superfast Continental Race King wire tyre is a genuine race tyre with greater puncture protection than the previous Supersonic model yet without any significant weight penalty - a serious option for cross country (XC) racers. The PUREGRIP compound works its wonders on fast-paced technical World Cup tracks and the toughest trails. Impressive in XC races and marathons, for hardtails and full suspension race bikes, its low rolling tread pattern keeps your speed up through the turns and straights. When the trails are dry, this model is faster, cleaner and safer with a rolling resistance that is almost on a par with semi-slick tyres. If you’re looking for a fast, reliable tyre the Continental Race King mountain bike (MTB) tyre is an easy choice.
