Product technical specifications

TECHNOLOGY

BlackChili Compound - it’s all about how you mix it crucial balance. The rolling properties of the rubber compound of a tyre are primarily determined by three interacting factors – stiction [grip], rolling resistance and mileage [longevity] . The dilemma: If you improve any of these factors it can have a detrimental effect on at least one of the others. A tyre with maximum grip wears quicker and rolls more slowly. If you then make a tyre roll faster and more durable, grip, in turn, is reduced.

Apex - FROM THE CAR TO THE BIKE. Successfully used in car tires for years, its transition for use in Continental bicycle tires was only a matter of time. Apex stabilises the tire in turns and is a technology that also makes sense for high-volume bicycle tires. A natural rubber profile, set between the carcass layers at the base of the tire. Stiffens the sidewalls, there by minimizing the twisting of the tire by the high transverse loads Stiffer sidewalls that in turn, reduce the risk of punctures and impede the tire from slipping off the rim. Destined for Downhill, Gravity Enduro and Freeride. Low pressure, enhanced grip is made possible without becoming too slack in corners. The risk of punctures decreases significantly.
