Description: Backcountry Our eBay Store About Us Contact Us Grand Prix 5000 650 Clincher Tire Continental realizes there are plenty of smaller stature riders and triathletes rolling on 650b wheels, so it offers its all-new Grand Prix 5000 Tire in the smaller diameter, giving all riders the benefits of its top-tier clincher. The GP5000 is the worthy successor to the GP4000, a tire so universally loved as it was truly a competition worthy tire in terms of weight, grip, and rolling resistance, but unlike typical racing rubber, the tire was actually durable enough to fend off debris so you could train on it daily, while also lasting quite a while so you could rack up some miles before the threads began to show. As one of the world's largest tire manufactures, Continental has a host of technologies and compounds it can lean on, giving it the ability to build the highest quality tires.

The rubber compound is critical because it defines the tire's grip, rolling resistance, and longevity. Typically, you can't alter one without it affecting the other which is exactly where Black Chili shines. Using the latest knowledge of polymers and raw material research, Conti uses special synthetic rubbers along with proven natural rubber, creating a high-performance mixture. To it, it adds super-tiny carbon black particles, optimized in shape and surface properties. The complex compound technology is so exclusive that Conti only manufactures tires using Black Chili compound in its Korbach, Germany plant. The tiny size of Black Chili particles allows them to mold to variable road surfaces more readily. It gives the tire greater ability to conform to imperfections in the road surface for excellent grip in deman... Product Details Color Black, Black Chili Height Length UPC This is the footer.
