Continental Race King Supersonic Foldable Tyre

Large volume casing combined with low profile tread pattern and Black Chilli compound are just what ensures a head start on any fast paced technical worldcup racing tracks and marathon pists.Supersonic – The aim of the Supersonic range is to provide customers with the choice of purchasing the lightest products available on the market. Continental have made tyres and tubes in this range which are refined to the minimum weight tolerances without compromising safety, to give the racing cyclist a genuine advantage. Every Supersonic product is uncompromisingly optimised as far as weight and rolling resistance are concerned. All components of the Supersonic tyre and tube are individually reduced in volume and weight to what is absolutely necessary and technically feasible. This affects for example, the thickness of the tyre casing, material distribution of tread rubber, the thickness of the tread compound and the thickness of the tube walls. Of course, only the highest quality materials are used: highly refined polyamide for the carcass and all Supersonic tyres now feature our Black Chili compound technology.Radically optimising a tyre in terms of weight and rolling resistance means cutting back on other tyre properties. In terms of mileage and puncture resistance, the Supersonic tyres do not measure up to the proven quality of their corresponding all-round tyres.Continental's engineers and chemists have turned out superlative technology here, ensuring Supersonic products a top position in racing and tuning. Hobby athletes can also benefit from our innovative capabilities, however, through Continental's various well-balanced alternatives that satisfy virtually the whole range of racing tyre demands.

Continental Vapor Tyre

Continental Vapor Tyre: The Vapor tyre has a 2.1" tread, and is designed for cross country trail riding & racing. Continental have worked on how they could improve on the current MTB tyres on the market. Two areas that they concentrated on were tread stability and tread traction. By using the GravityArc™ concept as explained above, they have reinforced the Vapor's lugs by providing each of them with a wide base, so that they flex less under load, thus improving the tyres cornering & braking characteristics. These "Arcs" (lug bases) will also provide grip of their own on softer terrain where the tyres footprint has more volume than tyres with a flat tread base. The tops of the lugs are hard & sharp so as to hook up & bite more rapidly & effectively through wet or loose surfaces. Gravity Arc Tread Design: The new design of the Vapor uses even the space in between the lugs to increase traction. 3D faces enlarge the surface of the tread. The surfaces are determined by free falling u-bends or Arcs. The shape comes naturally, and at a minimum material input to keep weight low. The contact patch or "footprint" of the tyre to the ground gets bigger, therefore improving traction. Additionally, the Arcs/u-bends reinforce the tread blocks which helps the tyre hook up more effectively. The lugs flex less under load, so steering response is improved as the shoulder knobs do not squirm during cornering. This is because the stresses are dissipated over a wider surface area.The tops of the tread blocks are sharp & hard These cut through wet & loose surfaces more rapidly Additionally, they hold very well on hard stony ground to give a more responsive ride The edges of the lugs are rectangular to the incoming traction & steering forces This way the lugs can take the forces and deliver them directly to the ground without braking loose The shoulder edges (left) run with the rotation for fast & secure cornering The centre tread edges (below left) run at 90° to rotation for perfect traction & braking
