Continental Grand Prix 5000 S TR Tire – 700c

   Black Chili Compound–        A new relationship between grip and rolling resistance. This unique tread rubber mixture which is only produced in Continental’s German factory has revolutionized bicycle tires. BlackChili Compound improves rolling resistance by 26 % and provides 30 % more grip than activated silica compounds. Premium tires with BlackChili Compound also impress with higher mileage and unlike many multi-compounds, provide a constant ride from the first to the last mile.

   Handmade in Germany

   Vectran Breaker–        Vectran™ is a synthetically manufactured high-tech fiber from a natural model. Like spider silk, Vectran™ is a liquid-crystalline polymer (LCP). Vectran™ is spun from the melted liquid polymer Vectra and processed further to a multi-strand thread. A Vectran™ Breaker is lighter, more flexible and protects more effectively against cuts than the comparable nylon breaker.

   Lazer Grip–        Lazer Grip, to make you one with the road. The lazered micro profile structure expands over the tire’s shoulder and provides outstanding cornering.

   Active Comfort Technology (ACT)–        The revolutionary approach in cycling. Embedded in the tire construction, the Active Comfort Technology absorbs vibrations and smoothens your ride.

   Fits 700c Road Wheels

   Tubeless Ready–        Continental’s carcass construction is robust and impervious against damage and penetration from foreign objects. The result: versatile, low weight and an attractive design. In addition, tires made using this technology can also be used as tubeless or with an inner tube.
