Continental Contact Speed 20´´ X 28 City Hard Tire

This super fast urban slicker turns any bike into a race bike, helping bike messengers meet tight deadlines or fitness riders who need faster tires than the original knobby tires their bike came with. - Puncture protection and reliability are ensured by the renowned Continental wear-resistant tread compound and two layers of Safetysystem Anti Punch under the tread. - Improved 180 threads per inch nylon frame increases speed and comfort. This is because thinner carcass material deforms faster around road surface irregularities than carcass with lower tread density values.. This feature also increases puncture resistance. - The contact speed is also distinguished by the sidewall "Skinwall". Most city/trekking tires use 'Gumwall', which means lots of rubber in the sidewall to increase resistance to sidewall punctures. Skinwall sidewall is much faster than Gumwall, but requires a little forethought to avoid curb scrapes and to always maintain the minimum recommended tire pressure. - The 'Micro-Diamond' tread pattern provides fast movement, yet reliable traction on loose road surfaces such as sand, gravel or mud. Reflective sidewalls are an option for added safety, and contact sports can be used with dynamo headlights. Peculiarities: - Transforms any street/mountain bike into a racing bike! - His strength is in speed - Includes two layers of Safety System against punctures under the tread - Micro-diamond tread pattern - just like our Competition World Tour tubular tyre!
