Four-ply 110tpi sidewalls create a good barrier to damaging debris, the tread rubber is thicker than before, maximising longevity, and a Vectran breaker uses high-tech fibres for exceptional tear resistance. Durability is still balanced well with performance though; this tyre is still fast and the tubeless construction reduces rolling resistance.
Active Comfort Technology reduces the transfer of road vibrations to the rider, while a Lazer Grip profile, which expands over the tyre's shoulder, improves cornering. Continental has made some small but significant changes to the BlackChilli II Compound, which is now even more grippy, for increased confidence at speed and on wet roads.
