| New Continental Tires
The German company has just introduced three new MtB products:
Twister Pro is a cross country competition and all-around performance
fast rolling tire. The twister pro is lighter than semislicks and offers
improved traction particularly in wet conditions. Included in the “Endless
Edge” family, the Twister Pro tread design features five-sided studs precisely
positioned for a effortless handling, predictable steering and responsive
braking under a full range of conditions. It is available in 26’ x 1.9’
size, in regular dual compound (both sides of the tread in a softer compound),
and Tection ( reinforced sidewall ) versions. Its weight is excellent:
510gr. for wire type and only 450gr. for foldable type (10gr. more in
Tection version )
Twister is based on the cross country, race bred design of the Twister
Pro, and it is an economic version featuring the same completely new “Endless
Edge” design. It is available too in 26’ x 1.9’ and its weight is also
remarkable 550gr. for wire type and 490gr for foldable type.
Survival Pro is designed for superior traction in the most demanding
conditions. The Survival Pro features the “Endless Edge” tread design
in an aggressive open pattern that bites through every surface, with
the exception of hard pack or pavement. Its size is 26’ x 2.3’, but a
weight of 700gr. in wire type and just 630 in foldable type allow it to
be mounted on cross country light bikes if the going gets tough. It is
also available in Tection version (10gr. more).
Continental manufactures also a very interesting road range. The Telekom
Edition formed by SuperSport 100 T and Grand Prix 3000 T open tires and
Competition T tubular tires with Telekom pink sidewall will look very
nice on your bike. Continental is the official supplier and technology
partner for Telekom professional team.
Grand Prix Supersonic is an extremely light (140 g), low rolling
resistance tire that allows extremely high inflate pressures. Its distinctive
black sidewall and anthracite tread looks fast even standing still.
Ultra 2000 is a training/sport tire with slick tread for exceptional
grip in every condition. Its carcass material allows subtle handling and
high puncture resistance. It is a very high mileage durable tire.
Cross Attack is a cyclocross specific tubular that provides exceptional
winter weather traction for training and racing. Evenly, spaced knobs
offer smooth, fast rolling on the flats with predictable, consistent grip
in turns. Center lugs afford excellent mileage and fast straight line
performance.
