Bicycle Tyre Range 2016 Get the grip Bicycle Tyre Division

Continental Our focus is on service

Sustained investments into both our Korbach manufacturing base and a further extension to our logistics centre are starting to take effect and are producing some very convincing results. A storage space expansion to 77,000 m2 will significantly improve the efficiency of our procedures and on a long-term basis, our ability to offer a wider range of products.

In the field of mountain bikes, ProTectionApex technology, as well as the Baron 2.4 Projekt is placing us firmly on the road to success. The World Championship and the Red Bull Rampage victories serve as striking proof of this.

After implementing a new performance line two years ago, we thus ensured that Continental have a solid product range in this high demand mid-range price segment.

Thanks to a solid choice of materials and meticulous workmanship, our Performance Tyres are setting new standards. In the course of the year, we will be expanding our range with further Enduro models and therefore completing this line of products.

So, what does this mean for you? We can provide an improved quality of service and range of products, as well as optimised availability for the success of your business.

I am delighted to have the opportunity to convince you of our products and would like to wish you a successful 2016.

Get the Grip!

World Champions and individual athletes Conti-Olymp Podium seekers united through Conti Before the start of any race, tension increases, pulses reach high speed, generating focus and concentration amongst the athletes. In their mind, they are already running through the most important sections of the course, putting the body in standby. The sound of the start gun sets the adrenaline shooting through the body and the automatic fight instinct kicks in.

To edge ever closer to the ultimate goal of being race winner, unquestionable trust in equipment as well as peak physical performance are essential.

We at Continental share the same goal oriented focus and have our finger on the pulse with ongoing development and optimisation of our products. With our “Handmade in Germany” products, we equip our teams and individual athletes with premium products to give them the best support on the way to success.

Bicycle racing has always been a testament of quality for our tyres and has produced extraordinary victories in recent times: Sebastian Kienle and Mirinda Carfrae’s double win in Ironman Hawaii, Gee Atherton and Manon Carpenter’s dual success as UCI World Champions in the overall standings in downhill. Julien Absalon as UCI World Champion in XCO or Andreu Lacondeguy’s victory at the Red Bull Rampage are just some of the greats who have realised their dream thanks to the top products from Korbach!

Grand Prix TT Limited Edition Specialist in the race against the clock The ultra-fast, semi-slick tread makes the Grand Prix TT a favourite in the race against the clock.

When every second counts and every step must transmit the force perfectly, it is on the spot. The quick tyre makes every time trial and triathlon bike a fighting machine. The time specialist scores with low weight and high puncture resistance.

A pure race tyre with reduced puncture protection and reduced mileage!

Grand Prix Supersonic The purist competition tyre Lightweight and maximum acceleration characterise the super lightweight Grand Prix Supersonic. Time trial and track specialists benefit from the first-class rolling characteristic. The purist competition tyre is otherwise reduced to a minimum, thus it was necessary to waive the puncture protection. A tyre without compromise.

Cyclocross Race The training and tour companion The Cyclocross Race is very fast and ideal for use on firm ground. It is the perfect companion on forest and field trails and scores with low rolling resistance with a comparable good grip. This tyre is a "flow guarantor" for challenging off-road cycling.

Cyclocross Speed Semi Slick with extra puncture protection The name says it all. The race-ready Cyclocross Speed is at home on firm, dry or frozen ground. Crossers benefit from the low rolling resistance in training or on the tour and bring a lot of speed to the pedal. Also responsible for this is the fast and diamond-shaped centre tread which provides extra puncture protection at the same time.

Mountain bike tyres Classic

Gravity 2.3 Riding pleasure on all trails Tyres with a width of 2.3 are versatile. They are just as suitable on highland trails as on an Alpine crossing. The round tyre cross-section typical for Continental tyres and the GravityArc® tread lead to playful handling. The tyre can turn easily in curves and reliably sinks its claws into loose surfaces. The Gravity’s aggressive appearance does not contradict its running smoothness.

Vapor 2.1 The marathon specialist Profile paired with the 2.1 carcass makes the Vapor a marathon tyre. Reliable, easy rolling and grip on all surfaces.

Vertical 2.3 The modern classic The Vertical has everything a classic tyre needs. It is at home on any trail and shows its character when the terrain is difficult. A hot potato for tours in Alpine terrain where it comes to low weight and high puncture protection.

Explorer 2.1/1.75 The all-round athlete Extremely successful and versatile all-round model with neutral handling and great ride comfort. For the young racers of tomorrow: the Explorer as a wired-on version with four different tyre diameters, also for children’s bikes.

44

45

Spike Claw 2.1 The MTB tyre for real Vikings Spikes in the tread studs provide grip on ice and deep snow. The open tread has good self-cleaning properties and safe going in mud and snow. Because of its large volume, Spike Claw hardly sinks. Available with either 120 or 240 studs of hardened steel.

Travel CONTACT Once around the world The Travel CONTACT is the globetrotter under tyres, especially suitable for touring bikes and ATBs. The product is characterised by the resilient and viable carcass and special sidewall protection. Through the semi-slick tread, this travelling companion has low rolling resistance but still provides good cornering traction. A perfect companion for every terrain.

Sport CONTACT II Combining comfort and speed Its strength is its speed. The non-slip slicks with rough tread score well, especially on tarmac. City bikes and single speed and fitness bikes profit from the momentum whilst being highly comfortable. This helps the tyre rise to all challenges. The Sport CONTACT II impresses by means of the new Vulkanette design with grip, double puncture protection and its smooth running.

Plus tyres

Maximum safety.

We don’t like punctures!

The Plus tyre range offers you effective protection against flat tyres. An almost impenetrable puncture protection bead made out of highly elastic special rubber guarantees safety during all journeys. Shards of glass, nails and even drawing pins don’t stand a chance. From the choice of numerous profiles and sizes there is a tyre for all uses to get you safely from A to B. Tip: Combine the Plus tyres with a Hermetic Plus tube. This thicker and stronger tube stays inflated for longer and has a greater resistance to punctures. Bike shops swear by this combination.

Our conversations over the years with New York’s toughest Fixie riders, the messengers of CycleHawk NY, continually provides us with new insights into the high demands placed on these rider’s tyres.

N. B.: We recommend using a manometer when measuring. More information available on page 77.

Super Sport Plus Scores with good puncture protection Because of the protection belt incorporated into the tread, the Super Sport Plus impresses with good puncture protection. The tyres for fixed gear and race bikes have proved themselves on both tarmac and cycle paths. The product boasts a small rolling resistance courtesy of its slick tread. If you want to get from A to B quickly and safely, this is the best product to help you on your way.

Tubes and accessories

62

Tubes, rim tape, accessories.

Details which make all the difference.

It is often the small, unseen things which make it possible to get the most out of a product. For example using our Continental RevoSealant or a suitable and pressure resistant rim tape, like the Continental Easy Tape, which is available in many widths. Our tubular cement has also been tried and tested in cycling for many years, securing tubulars to aluminium rims as well as to carbon rims with our carbon specific version. These products along with our valve extensions, available in various lengths are indispensable accessories for bike racing.

Continental tubes, which are made out of high quality butyl rubber with even wall thickness, are available in all possible sizes, styles and valve types and are all listed in order in the new, user friendly ContiTube System. We develop and manufacture all these small, useful products with the same care and precision with which we manufacture our other cutting edge products, because it’s the detail which make the difference.

63

Bicycle tyre tubes The new ContiTube bicycle tube program makes it easier for you to find the ideal tube for your cycling demands. The user-friendly tube system is suitable for any size, length, design, type of valve and perfect for any tyre dimension and riding occasion. Varying tube types can affect your tyres’ handling characteristics: the Standard tube, available in all dimensions is the best choice for everyday cycling whilst Light & Supersonic varieties give racers the option of lower rotating weight, therefore increasing speed. The lightweight tubes have a lower thickness and so it is imperative that inflation pressures are maintained to prevent the risk of pinch flats.

For worry free cycling, we recommend the Hermetic Plus tube. Its improved formula is lighter and more compact, which renders it very puncture resistant in the presence of higher butyl amounts and greater wall thickness. Since it retains air longer, it’s a favourite among bicycle rental agencies. Our Freeride and Downhill tubes are especially strong and bulky, which make it one of our favourites, since their extra wall thickness effectively protects against punctures.

Rim Strip Small component = large impact. A poorly constructed or unsuitable tyre rim tape can be the cause of many punctures. It is especially important with hollow section rims to use a pressure-resistant rim band which covers the entyre rim. The fabric-reinforced Continental Easy Tape rim protector is designed for use under high air pressure conditions. The various widths enable a perfect fit for all standard rims. The high pressure design for racing cyclists withstands up to 220 PSI, without becoming deformed. The flat construction type also significantly eases the job of tyre fitting.

Grip BlackChili

BlackChili Compound – it’s all about how you mix it In the research and development laboratories for Continental bicycle tyres in Korbach, Germany, the staff and engineers have been looking for the solution to one of the fundamental problems of tyre construction: The running properties of the rubber compound of a tyre are largely determined by three interacting factors: static friction [grip], rolling resistance and mileage. The dilemma is that you improve one of these factors, and in turn, worsen at least one other factor. A tyre with maximum grip wears out faster and rolls slower. If one makes the tyre faster or more durable, then this in turn reduces grip. With the then current highest standard of compound technology, the Activated Silica Compound having already reached a very high standard of compromise, our developers wanted to take compounding to an even higher level. This lead them to venture into new territory, exploring new ways so that in 2005 they made a breakthrough in mixing technology, the first steps to what is now known as BlackChili.

This revolutionary compound is based on the latest findings on polymer and other raw material research.

For BlackChili we refine newly developed synthetic rubbers with natural rubber with the proven highperformance tread compound. We use these rubbers with special nanometric carbon soot

particles, which are optimized in shape and surface properties for best uses for the intended tyre. BlackChili Compound reaches an unprecedented of performance.

Tyres with BlackChili Compound reach an unprecedented level of performance. Compared to the previous best Activated Silica Compound, BlackChili tyres have 26 % less rolling resistance, a 30 % higher friction value [grip] and a 5 % increase in mileage. BlackChili technology never stands still as it is continuously developed and tailored to the individual applications of new Continental tyres as they continue to be produced out of the Korbach factory. Whether on the road or mountain bike, speed and grip advantages are very noticeable.

The complex compound technology is so sensitive that tyres with BlackChili Compound can only be produced exclusively in our German Korbach factory.

PureGrip Compound Based on activated silica compounds, this technology was originally intended as an 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 tyres, which are exclusively manufactured in the factory in Hefei [Asia].

TirePositioning® System With the TirePositioning® System, the last little bit of what is currently technically possible has been exploited.

Motorcyclists have known for a long time: Different demands are made on a front tyre than on its rear counterpart. The narrower front tyre provides reduced wind resistance and better handling. An adhesion-optimised tread mixture supplies the necessary grip especially for wet cornering. The wide rear tyre offers better traction thanks to a larger contact area and at the same time more comfort. Thanks to the fast rolling, optimised tread mixture and the larger contact area on the rear tyre, wear is reduced. The result is a pioneering front tyre and rear tyre system for road racing; to be found in our GP Attack and Force combination. – New since 2013: The first tubulars featuring the TPS system!

TWI – The wear indicator The wear rate and condition of any ‘treaded’ tyre like an MTB or touring model can be easily recognised by the obvious visual signs of wear to these tread lugs. Smooth or slick road tyres however do not offer any indication for their timely replacement. That is why Continental introduced wear indicators for smooth racing tyres back in 2004 on the Grand Prix 4000. The TWIs [Tread Wear Indicators] are on practically every Continental racing tyre these days. If the two small, circular depressions can no longer be seen in the middle of the tread, it is time for a replacement. This is an important aspect for rider safety as a worn tyres riding characteristics are no longer adequate.

The wear indicators have also found their way into City trekking and e-bike tyres. The Top CONTACT II has a small crosspiece in the base of the tread groove which should show a minimum profile depth of at least 1.6 mm. You can recognise Continental bicycle tyres with TWIs by the corresponding marking on the sidewall.

Casing construction & TPI – the makeup of the basic tyre structure The carcass is the basic structure for all tyres. The construction of the carcass, the material and the thickness of the thread depends on the demands that are placed on the tyre. Continental always works with high-quality carcasses made from nylon strings that are first woven and then rubberised. Nylon can be easily combined with rubber and is durable in all types of weather. The thickness of the thread gives the tyre its specific attributes. Thread thickness is recorded in TPI [threads per inch] and describes the number of threads per 2.54 cm [1 inch]. Fabrics used have 22 TPI, 28 TPI, 60 TPI and 110 TPI. Very fine material makes the tyre smoother and protects the carcass from punctures. Coarse fabric is more cut-resistant and makes the tyre more robust.

The choice of fabric correlates to the purpose of use. The standard is a three-ply basic carcass. Additional breakers can be put under the tread in order to reinforce the tyre even more and to increase puncture protection. There are different types of breaker builds and materials for different uses whether they are highly elastic specialty rubber, such as our Plus brand or fabric breakers, such as PolyX and Vectran™ in our race tyres. You can see how the tyre is constructed in the tyre specification. Points listed are the number of layers, the sum of the TPI and the type of puncture protection. 3/180 + Vectran™ is equivalent to three layers of a 60 TPI fabric with an additional Vectran™ Breaker.

Prepared for new challenges The new discipline is called Enduro, which has been becoming increasingly popular for some time now. It is the technical challenge of rapid, hard descents and exhausting ascents. This requires the combination of a puncture protecting construction and fine rolling characteristics as well as excellent grip.

The proven ProTection layer protects the tyre reliably against cuts and puncturing without significantly increasing the weight.

The additional apex side wall stabilisation reliably protects the tyre against puncturing even if the tyre pressure is low.

There is also the option of weight optimisation by driving the tyre together with the Conti RevoSealant

The hard way Better than ever before, the new Continental ProTection casing. The extra all-round puncture protection layer renders the casings especially durable and insensitive to damage or penetration from foreign elements. Treads and sidewalls are equally protected, and are 25 % lighter and offer 30 % more puncture protection than their predecessors protected by DuraSkin®. Rolling resistance and absorption has also significantly improved.

The new Made in Germany technology allows it to withstand even the hardest trails across the world. What’s more: they’re universally usable, are inspired by BlackChili Compound and have an

Apex

Apex The sidewalls of freeride and downhill tyres are subjected to extraordinarily high loads. A rubber profile between the carcass layers ensures stability. The Apex sits on the tyre bead and reinforces the sidewalls of the tyre. The tyre is thus protected from impact with the rim during rough rides over rocky ground. The tyre stays more upright when cornering. It does not bend over the sides of the rim when subjected to transverse loads, and always stays true to the course.

Reliable quality PureGrip is the compound technology of the new performance quality series. The name says it all. It stands for grip and durability. The extremely durable and strongly adhesive rubber compound will not let any cyclist down – one of the main goals in developing the compound produced in the new Continental factory in China. A robust 60 TPI Nylon casing paired with reliable rubber lining promises durability and allows for tubeless sealing of the tyre with the Conti RevoSealant “Tubeless Ready”.

Performance A strong aramid collapsing core provides firm connection to the rim. By using these highly advanced materials, the tyres are on the same level as competing Asian products and provide the ambitious amateur athlete with a favourable alternative made by Continental.

Puncture protection technology at a glance.

The benchmark in puncture protection Vectran™ is a synthetically manufactured high-tech fibre 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. Spider silk like Vectran™ has an enormous tear resistance at a very low weight: Exactly the right properties to process into a premium Continental bicycle tyre as a puncture protection insert. A Vectran™ Breaker is lighter, more flexible and protects more effectively against cuts than the comparable nylon breaker. Vectran™ Breaker does not adversely affect the rolling resistance.

Plus Breaker – Maximum safety Between the tread and the carcass, a puncture protection of highly elastic special rubber is used. This practically impenetrable puncture protection successfully defies all types of foreign objects from getting to the inner tube below. Even a drawing pin cannot get through. Tyres with Plus Breaker can be seen in almost every segment nowadays: Whether racing cycles, MTB or city/trekking, the Plus Breaker guarantees maximum safety without negatively affecting the cycle properties of the tyre. The consistency of the breaker has been adjusted so that the tyre does not feel spongy when cornering. The Plus Breaker is true puncture protection. Please read the air pressure instructions!

Puncture-defence With our PolyX Breaker®, we bring PKW know-how to the bicycle tyre segment: Polyester has been used successfully for years in car tyres and been tried and tested many times. The extremely resistant polyester fibre is woven tightly crosswise. In this way, a very high fabric density is reached which not only makes the Breaker more resistant to foreign objects but is also especially resistant to punctures. The rolling resistance is also not negatively affected by the PolyX Breaker®.

SafetySystem Breaker – Puncture protection with a system The SafetySystem Breaker is made up of Kevlarreinforced, high-strength nylon fabric. Puncture and cutresistant but nevertheless light and flexible, the tyre adjusts 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.

SafetyPlus For E-bikes, we have combined the SafetySystem Breaker with a highly elastic material. The result is an extremely puncture and cut resistant casing which, thanks to its high elasticity, gives especially low rolling resistance, saving battery power and the environment.

The breaker also meets the demands of the higher speed e-bikes, of up to 50 km/h. The breaker is also adapted for the higher acceleration torque of e-bikes as well as the faster cornering speeds. The specialist tyre for fast e-bikes and rental bikes.

NyTech Breaker Our new NyTech Puncture ProTection has been developed based on the proven Continental SafetySystem Breaker. Its nylon fabric makes it resistant to punctures and cuts like Kevlar reinforced high strength fibres, but offers lower rolling resistance and reduced weight. The NyTech breaker sits between the SafetySystem and the PolyX Breaker® as a more effective puncture protection casing in the performance sector.

Puncture ProTection – Worry-free throughout the day If you are looking for a reliable, value for money companion for every day use, choose a tyre with Puncture ProTection Breaker. This robust Rubberbreaker combines with the rubber-reinforced sidewalls of the tyre to guarantee a high puncture and wear protection.

No frills tyres with a clear focus and durability.

PROTECTION

Breaker Technology in comparison

Hardshell – MORE is what you get Puncture protection and mileage are the strengths of Hardshell-ProTection. A wider PolyX Breaker®, the specialist against punctures under the tread centre and shoulders provides for great reliability. The threeply – each layer with 60 TPI – carcass covers the entyre tyre and makes it a real bastion against urban detritus.

The outer sidewalls of the tyre are reinforced with DuraSkin® fabric providing even more reliablility due to the casing being so well protected. Hardshell tyres are the puncture-resistant flagship amongst racing tyres – produced exclusively in Germany.

DuraSkin® Tyres with DuraSkin® sidewall protection have to be able to roll with the punches. They are used under the harshest conditions. On messenger bikes, the tyres skid along curbs; on touring bikes, they cross continents without wearing out. In racing cycling, they have to endure tough tests such as the Paris-Roubaix.

The high-quality polyamide fabric protects the tyre casing against the worst conditions. These tyres stand out thanks to their brown sidewalls.

Competition tyres In serious competitions, sacrifices are sometimes made by riders looking for that extra 5 %. Sometimes this means our GP Supersonic is used. It features a high quality racing carcass but with no puncture protection.

In the race against the clock, weight and rolling resistance are the top priority – the cyclist has to gauge the high puncture risk to him/herself.

Carbon rims

Incorrect brakes

Correct brakes

Warning – Hotspot In the racing bike field, more and more aluminium or carbon closed rim profiles are being offered to use with tubeless or tubeless ready tyres. They no longer exhibit holes in the rim base. The manufacturer therefore does not use the rim band.

The problem with that is that the resulting heat from the rim brakes reaches the tyre system unabatedly. Using carbon as the rim material has the disadvantage of low heat conductivity. During braking, heat builds up and can thermally strain tubes and tyres. Without the rim band, it can lead to sudden tube failures during longer braking [e. g. during downhill descents]. Latex tubes and lightweight design tubes below 70 grams can fail particularly quickly.

Continental urgently recommends using an easy tape rim band even on aluminium and carbon rim closed rim profiles to protect from direct heat exposure and to reduce the risk of a tube failure. Moreover, we recommend using principally race tubes, especially in mountainous areas. We hereby advise against the use of latex or lightweight design tubes [“Light”, “Supersonic”]. Continental also advises optimising riding technique. We recommend you always decelerate with both brakes in order to distribute the brake heat.

Furthermore, long braking should be avoided. Pulsating braking allows the rim to cool down – a simple, but effective trick to get around the heat problem and to enjoy a safe descent.

Suitable for Dynamo

Dynamo – Preparation Tyres which have the Dynamo symbol have a special profiling in the side wall and are especially suitable for use with rotating dynamos. The Dynamo thus runs quieter and does not slip in wet conditions. Depending on the tyre model, the dynamo knurl design can vary.

Tyre-rim combination For clarification on sizing, all Continental bicycle tyres are sized according to the ETRTO [European Tyre and Rim Technical Organisation] format: tyre width [mm] x tyre rim diameter [mm], for example 23-622. This is placed on the tyre sidewall. Alternative sizing such as 23x700C or 26 x 2.4 do not give clear information about the necessary rim size.

That is why the internationally recognised ETRTO standard should always be used when in doubt. In general, Continental recommends that bicycle tyres only be mounted on hook edge type rims because this type of rim holds the tyre more securely, especially with air pressures exceeding 44 PSI. The measurements for hook edge rims, for example 13C-622, are given as; rim width in mm [size A], a “C” for crotchet [‘hook’ in English] and the rim bed diameter in mm [size D]. If the size information on older rims is not legible, the rim width can simply be measured using a calliper from one hook edge to the other. An overview of which rim widths fit which tyres is available from ETRTO.

Wide tyres go faster For a long time, a 20 mm tyre with 160 PSI or more was considered the fastest tyre – regardless of how uncomfortable it is to cycle on this type of tyre. However, it is impressive that a 23 mm tyre at 123 PSI, a 25 mm tyre at 94 PSI and a 28 mm tyre at 80 PSI have the same rolling resistance as a 20 mm tyre at 160 PSI. Yet at the same time, wide tyres offer more comfort and a broader range of applications – less air for bad roads and maximum pressure at fast time trials. The air pressure can also be reduced by 14 PSI in wet conditions to generate more grip. The trend towards wider wheel rims reflects the trend towards wider tyres – an optimum combination.

ECO – the energy saving tyres The tyres with the Continental ECO logo benefit from over 100 years of experience in the development of mopeds and motorcycle tyres. Optimized and recommended for e-bikes at speeds of up to 25 km/h, they guarantee low rolling resistance and good puncture protection with their extra high quality construction. The durability has been studied on e-bikes to prevent early wear and tear due to the additional drive force. Some models, such as the Top CONTACT II, also have the ECE-R 75 test label which authorizes use on fast e-bikes up to 50 km/h.

Notes – Air pressure Air pressure directly influences the handling, durability and the rolling resistance of a bicycle. Only with the right operational pressure can a tyre operate to its full potential.

In addition to tyre volumes and cyclist or system weight, the purpose plays an important role here. Each Continental tyre has a recommended air pressure on the sidewall and maximum inflation pressure specification. If the air pressure is too low, wear increases, and the risk of puncture damage and tyre slipping increases. Ageing cracks can also occur.

Air pressure which is too high makes the tyre feel rigid as its optimal elasticity is not realised. Traction, grip and rolling resistance may get worse. All bicycle tyre systems continually lose pressure. For this reason you should check your tyre pressure frequently. Touring bike and mountain bike riders should check their air pressure at least once a month; racing cyclists once a week. When using light and supersonic tubes, the air pressure should be checked before each ride.

Notes – Weight Building light tyres is the declared goal of our developers and employees in our production facility.

Occasionally however, there are small deviations from the weight information given in our catalogue. These result from tolerances in the tread thickness and rubberised material which cannot be avoided in the handwork of the manufacturing process. The weight information in the catalogue is based on the target weights which were determined in the pre–production series and is rechecked during the running production repeatedly. Deviations of up to 10 % of the target weights are thus possible according to the design.
