These tires are among the highest-quality tires produced by Continental. They are hand-sewn at the Korbach factory and set exceptional standards in terms of workmanship and quality.
Black Chili Compound
At Continental, Black Chili means, above all, that grip, rolling resistance, and durability are combined at a level that almost makes you believe in magic. At the same time, Continental simply uses the best and latest technologies. The latest polymers, soot particles, and fillers optimized down to the nano range guarantee the unique performance of the Black Chili Compound. It revolutionized the fundamental trade-off between grip and rolling resistance. Approximately 30% more grip and a 26% improvement in rolling resistance compared to the silica compound, for greater performance and safety. Continental tires are manufactured entirely from this high-quality rubber compound. This means the tires can be ridden right down to the casing without losing the rubber’s first-class properties! Anyone who has ever ridden on a Black Chili tire won’t want anything else!
PolyX Breaker
The tire is reinforced with an extremely durable, tightly woven polyester fiber. This achieves a very high weave density. As a result, the Breaker is not only resistant to foreign objects but also particularly puncture-resistant.
