ProTection Technology

The extra all-round puncture protection layer renders the casings extremely durable and resistant to damage or penetration from foreign elements.

Treads and sidewalls are equally protected, and are 25 % lighter and offer 30 % more puncture protection than their predecessors protected by DuraSkin. Rolling resistance and absorption has also significantly improved.

The new Revolution Tubeless Ready Bead improves the installation of Tubeless Ready tyres. For tubeless sealing we recommend the use of Continental RevoSealant.

Black Chili Rubber

The rolling properties of the rubber compound of a tyre are primarily determined by three interacting factors grip, rolling resistance and longevity

The dilemma:

If you improve any of these factors it can have a detrimental effect on at least one of the others.

A tyre with maximum grip wears quicker and rolls more slowly. If you then make a tyre roll faster and more durable, grip, in turn, is reduced.

With our Black Chili compound (a tread compound which is always based on the latest knowledge of polymers and raw material research) we have supplied the cycling industry with an enduring solution.

Depending on the application of a tyre, we adjust the compound formulation for the specific discipline for road or mountain biking, time trialling or downhill racing.

How does that work?

For Black Chili we refine special synthetic rubbers with proven natural rubber to high-performance tread mixtures. To these mixtures we then add soot particles, which in turn are optimised in shape and surface properties.
